Hello, my name is Mavis. I know Mum has been posting about me for days now, ever since by magic I found myself back with her and Dad, and home again. She's told me all about the lovely people that have been leaving messages all about me and today, I'm here to say THANK YOU.
Every night I curl up in my bed, it's the same bed I used to have. I have always loved my bed, sometimes it's this one and sometimes it's the one right next to the big warm thing that Mum calls her Aga. Now and again I sleep in the other bed that it is in the cooler room, the room might be cooler but the lovely warm furry cat that sleeps in there cuddles up to me, and together we are warm. I like curling up in a little ball, and I can now my tummy doesn't hurt any more.
I have something very special that Mum and Dad have done for me. It keeps me safe and reminds me that I shouldn't run too far away in case I get lost again. Even when this is on my collar I can go and climb on the back of the sofa to watch Dad in the field, I can get to my water dish for a nice cool drink, I can go outside and sit on the grass or lie in the shade by the plants, and watch Mum and the chickens. If I get tired I can get to any of the beds that I fancy a snooze in.
Sometimes I get a bit tangled, and end up sitting next to the table because I have gone round and round in circles, but Mum is never far away and she comes and does the magic thing that makes the special lead long again and I can go and join my sisters on the doggy bed in the sunshine.
I am never left alone on this for more than a few minutes and because of it I can choose where I want to go, it makes me feel safe and stops Mum looking so worried. I don't like it when Mum is worried.
So I keep coming up to her ..... and telling her I love her with my eyes.
I'm using my eyes here to say to everyone of you that has thought about me, and cared about me enough to send nice comments to Mum, that I love you too.
I have so much love to give .... you can all have a little piece.
Mavis xx
