    Looking forward to watching the lion documentary. Have got some data allowance issues with the internet at the moment, so that will be further down the track.

    I had to be the "first-aid nurse" as Puss was stung on the nose by a bee. The cat came running, meowing loudly, then rubbed its paws frantically against both sides of its nose. I removed all of the bee sting and then put vinegar on the cat's nose. (I've got a lot of experience doing this - have pulled out several bee stings from cat noses.)

    I say it to the cat each year: "Keep ya snout out of the flowers." The cat isn't content just to smell the flowers - the nose goes right in.

    Recently I spoke with a young person who is caring for a bird with a broken wing. She explained how she splinted up the bird's wing using ice cream sticks (here in Aussie Land, we call them "paddle pop sticks" - named after the Paddle Pop brand of ice cream or ice block.) She tapes up the wing and writes the date on the splint - so that she knows when she first found the bird.

    Felt like I was talking to a younger version of myself. As a youngster, I was constantly bringing home birds with broken wings and splinting their wings in the same manner.

    Hey Wallflower,

    I was reviewing some internet-related stuff for work when I came across this video, I suddenly told myself : "That one is for Wallflower" !!!!

    Interestingly : This video won the "Golden Kitty Award" for "Best Cat Video On The Internet" at the Walker Art Center's Internet Cat Video Film Festival !!!!! :)

    He speaks in French (with a terrible accent, my goodness !) but what he says is faultless (not really faultless but I already heard way worse things !). He must have a native aboriginal French (gal ?) around him.... :p I don't know why he speaks in French because he doesn't live in France. There are many details that don't fool me (England... :p!?!?). "Paw de deux" is a pun for "pas de deux", a dance performed by two dancers.

    Thanks for posting this video, Utuna. I liked the way it was put together. Have you seen the video where Henri is taken to the vet?
