I struggle with mine and hate doing it, especially as I can see my ARTHaven through the open doorway!)<br /><br />So glad you like my various projects! Funny you should mention that spray bottle, because I've seen people on Youtube, using them to damp down the wool to make wet felt. I find a milk container with holes pierced in the lid works just as well - you just shake out the water! Not exactly very precise but adequate for felt!<br /><br />ShoshiShoshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028185699225457125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898096826929908370.post-19763614163086728252014-10-18T06:03:13.430+10:002014-10-18T06:03:13.430+10:00Three gold stars for the room still being tidy, Vo...Three gold stars for the room still being tidy, Vonny. But, goodness - what a mess with your poor bird. I'd have thought seed was the right stuff for him, as well... Hope he manages to get SOME of his medicine, between bouts of being determined to make you wear it as the fashion accessory of 2014!!!<br />Love the way the boat picture is coming on.<br />Take care.

Your...So sorry to hear about poor old Charlie, Von. Your description of giving him his medication reminds me of our older cat, Beatrice. The vet always says how lovely she is, and how well behaved, never scratching or biting when they do things to her, but at home, if we have to give her a pill, it's a different story! Like parrots, cats are armed! We have to wrap her in a towel. Have you tried that?<br /><br />Your latest picture is an absolute dream. I love, love, love it and would hang it on my wall any day. It's totally fabulous (but then all your art is...) - makes my mouth water, all those gorgeous colours!<br /><br />Happy belated WOYWW,<br />Shoshi #37Shoshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028185699225457125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898096826929908370.post-38956125177347597032014-10-17T07:08:50.418+10:002014-10-17T07:08:50.418+10:00Argh... just lost a huge comment that I posted to ...Argh... just lost a huge comment that I posted to you, but such is life! <br />So once more with feeling....<br />I think you certainly deserve brownie points for sure, having to handle Charlie's medication trauma's. <br />When I have to give Muffty tablets, I hide them in a piece of chicken making sure I give the tablet piece first whilst having a second (no table) piece waving right in front of her. Her greed makes her gobble the first to get to the second! Works every time ;D<br />Your painting is fantastic and I'm making a note of your teachers comment. It certainly adds something to the composition. <br />I'm still trying to get over the shock of hearing you were a book keeper! I just wouldn't have guessed that one.<br />Anyway good luck with Charlie... I hope you win! <br />xoxo <br />Neesie #60Neesiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08629847485174945501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898096826929908370.post-7008155886952320172014-10-17T05:29:49.235+10:002014-10-17T05:29:49.235+10:00He is a human in a birds body!

Nightmare. Tried all the known tricks, none of them work. I can hold his mouth closed, stroke his throat till he swallows, then as soon as I let go, he spits it out! Tried hiding it in chicken- his absolute favourite, he just nibbles all round the bit with the pill in, then leaves it. Last week I had to give him worming syrup. Chocolate flavour. For a cat, really?Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #38 xxshazsilverwolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16274746581731544287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898096826929908370.post-73612137130619326802014-10-15T20:43:12.206+10:002014-10-15T20:43:12.206+10:00Oh Charlie!
