On Saturday my mum said that her sister was coming to meet me and I was very excited. Actually my mum told me to calm down a little as she didn't want me worn out when her sister came.

First they went to the Town Show though. They were admiring the produce competition, seeing home grown vegetables, and cakes and jam tarts when a lively young dog jumped up and grabbed the First Prize winning bread. Mum said he showed good taste taking the winning bread but if he has waited a while he would have found sausage rolls further down the table and he could probably have managed to eat one before it got taken off him, unlike the bread. Dogs - they just don't think things through! He got told off but mum said he didn't look especially sorry for what he had done.

They came back and sat in the garden. Mum's sister was very taken with me and said I am very cute and still pretty small but then she didn't see me as a kitten so she doesn't know how much I've growed. I came in the garden with them and they admired me chasing bugs awhile. Then I settled down by my mum's sister's feet and had a snooze and that went down very well.

It was a happy sunny evening and Josie and I did some top chasing about.

Sunday was not so good. Mum found out that I had taken my own collar off so she bought me a new one. I haven't managed to get this one off yet. It is less itchy than the other one and I have noticed that I can use the cat door again so maybe it's worth it.

Hi Toby it sounds like you had a purrrfect Saturday, lots of fun. I don't blame you about that collar but kitty sweet little furball if you go outside you gotta have one on.

Toby sounds like the purrfect weekend to me mate. Be careful with trying to get collars off they can get caught in your mouth and choke you. I tell you this from someone who had this done to them once. Mum has never made me wear a collar since.

Hi Toby. You might be using the same trick that I use to get the collar off. If you scratch at them long enough, the buckle slowly comes apart and it comes off. Your Mom can check that buckle once in a while and make sure it's still snapped together.

Since you go outside, you should only wear what we call Break-Away collars. They come apart if you pull on them hard enough. So if you get stuck somewhere, it comes off. If you wear a collar that's not the Break-Away kind, it could choke you. Also have Mum recheck the fit of your collar after you wear it for a day or two. Sometimes it doesn't go on snug right away because all our fur is in the way. Your Mom probably knows all this already.

Have a great day. Here in the U.S. it's a holiday. Yay!

Hey cutie. your right dogs don't think things through. He did have good taste though.

At least you can go out the cat door now.

Glad your visit with human auntie went well.
