A New Member Of The Castle Greyskull Family

I think we have been a little remiss (yet again) in not telling you that we have a new member of the family living up the road, chez Castle Greyskull …….

Sadly, after a short illness, it was felt best to let their beloved ginger tom and champion mouser Jupiter to go to Heaven where he wouldn’t hurt any more, reassuring Iris and Bertie that Grandy-Andy would be there waiting for him on his cloud, ready to take care of him for them.

And then within a couple of weeks another cat called out to them from the pages of Facebook, looking for a new home, because his lady owner was moving to a new flat where pets weren’t allowed.

I believe a full and robust resume was sent to said lady, who was touched by the care they had taken in their offering him a new home and so Spiderman (???) or Spidey for short, was welcomed to the ample family bosom.

Spidey and Nigel are very slowly becoming acquainted, they have currently, how shall I put it, a civil but strange relationship ……..

……. as Nigel is a little apprehensive that, although it was never an issue with Jupiter,  due to his diminutive size and greyish skin tone he could be very easily, to the uninitiated, be mistaken a mouse!  What is he like?

So, Spiderman, or Spidey, is neither a man nor a spider, but a cat?

And Nigel thinks he could get mistaken for a mouse? Hmm.

Or as Mrs. D would put it. ¡Sí! ¡Aha!
