    I don’t know how some people have so much energy and motivation. You know the ones. You get tired just looking at them. I want this superpower.

      Neither do I.

      I’m pretty grumpy and tired in the morning and listening to the animal farm of one of the workrooms when I get into work early in the morning and hearing it makes me even more exhausted.

    Mr Woof must have wondered what was going on in the neighbourhood today. Our evening walk took us past all sorts of characters - a witch, a walking skeleton, the grim reaper and a walking pumpkin!

    Halloween Movie review. 🪄🧹 😈

    Warlock . I rewatched again, this is such an enjoyable cheesy halloween movie. The costuming, the old english speech and the way all the actors play it real make this much better than you would expect from such a low budget movie

    4 witchy hobbits

    The Omen. Also played for reals by good actors. Genuinely scary .

    4 devilish hobbits

    In the process of sleeving the cards from my recent treasure hunts.

    Came across this in my collection which I think might suit tonight.

    Enjoy the witches and dragon.

    Reminder tonight is the last night for watching The Hobbit on Amazon. They are charming movies, I really do recommend them. 🧝🧙‍♂️🐲

    Ted n me went on an adventure to the park. He found sitting down to be easiest. He loved looking at all the birds tho some did not like him, he sniffed the sniffs and watched ducks swimming and people and cars on the busy streets but he was glad to be home and sat up once we got back to our little courtyard

          They need one with two compartments.

          Unfortunately if it’s the same as Melbcat’s the bottom ‘shelf’ is far too small to put a cat carrier in. So no chance of doubling up like that.

          Edit: Unless heavily modified… 🤔 but no. I think the cavity beneath the original capsule would still not be tall enough and not deep enough. The front panel saying ‘Pawz’ could be removed so the carrier could be pushed forward between the struts (and secured with a strap) but the frame would be too narrow to allow that.

            The stroller is big enough, the fluff makes the boys look big, and the weight specs can carry them both, they just have to be nice to each other

              I meant sticking a standard plastic airline style carrier in underneath for the second boy, so they’re separated and can’t punch on.

              But I think even if modified for more room the dimensions of metal frame wouldn’t allow that

              Edit. This is what I mean. The smaller fabric shelf and front Pawz panel could be removed and replaced with a larger shelf, if it was large and rectangular enough to hold a standard plastic carrier. Like these for under rollators or wheelchairs.

              But the room below might not be enough and could cause issues if the bottom carrier was riding too low.

              And the width of the plastic carrier might be too much to slip between the pram legs for that little extra room for the top front edge.

                It’s just easier to see how they will be and if they fight too much then I will leave one of them home.

          Yeah it can be a bumpy ride. It really annoys me that you can’t change the wheels.

          They do come off and you may have a slim chance at replacements off eBay. But the wheels themselves can’t come off to be replaced with something that has more shock absorption or traction. The double set of wheels are riveted together onto rectangular metal sleeves that click onto the legs of the frame.

          At least they’re solid wheels so you can’t get a flat. 😔

          I have considered stretching larger tyres over them as if they were inner tubes but that would require guesswork to buy tyres online that might not fit well.

          I’m not a car or bike person but I’d think you’d have to consider both diameter and width.

          And because it’s mostly welded in one piece you can’t even do anything with shock absorbers or an axel.

          I could remove the rivets by damaging them and re-rivet some different wheels in but that’s a last resort repair. Don’t have the energy for all that.

          I basically just put extra padding in the capsule to help cushion the cat and went carefully.

    Little Old Dog was sedated on Monday for Xrays and is still quite wobbly. He’s a little more lost than usual (this morning he got stuck between a bookcase and a wall in an area of the house he rarely ventures to), so it’s time to Senile Dog proof the house. Poor littlest love!

      ngl that’s why we bought ours way back. So much easier transporting felines in a wheeled conveyance than dragging a carrier full of weight-shifting whining lil’ bitch around

    Everyone encouraged to dress up for Halloween to work today. I’m going as an overweight, sleep deprived, depressed desk jockey.
