Maybe he or she was just lonely or hungry, Cheddar. With you being such a fierce warrior, you shouldn’t be afraid of strangers.

That's so sad. She was such a character, Socky, and she's left a hole in all of our lives.

We’re all so sad - for you the most, of course, because we know how heartbroken you must be, but also for ourselves, because we loved her too.

Hedgewatch Library : what a wonderful idea! Freya and Harriet have read every book in mine three times over. I just wish they'd learn to put the books back on the shelf when they've finished reading.

We need to be nice to wasps, Cheddy. They do a lot of good, and they won't harm us if we leave them alone. @fartycheddarcat.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/environment/...

It can't have been either of you. I'd blame the tooth fairy first!

My lot are on their way. Don't worry if there are no cakes left. They've had two breakfasts (three in Freya's case!); they won't starve. It's the friendship they're coming for.

Another smashing poem, Cheddar! And to have written that when you were tired !

The girls can't stop talking about the wonderful time they had in Paris with all that chic decor and haute cuisine. Thank you Brock, and please thank Tia & Phoebe for making them feel at home. We village folk must seem awfully provincial by comparison, but they've enough savoir-vivre not to say so.

I put my lot on the TGV in Toulouse at 6 o'clock this morning, so they should be there in plenty time. As it turned out, the driver and co-driver both love cats and so they let them sit in the front.

The prospect of a trip to Gay Paree has had the most salutary effect on the behaviour of my lot. I just hope now they don't spoil it all by getting nipsy and making fools of themselves.

What a talented pair! Rupert's work's already way beyond anything I could accomplish at his age. Or any age for that matter … Well done, the pair of you! And well done to the lady herself for staying still for long enough for you to capture her essence.

Look, Cheddar, you're not just a mentor to Figgy ; floofs all over the world - even the deserts of Libya - are practicing Cheddy-diggery. I do hope they start writing poems next. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWLD...

Gosh, Nana Brock really did excel herself with that floof made of Chantilly ! I bet Rupert's dying to join the dance, but he's still too little. Next year, Rupert. Next year.

I bet Nana Brock's leftovers are better than rightovers cooked by anyone else : Vatel, Escoffier, Bocuse, Michel Guérard, Robuchon, Alain Ducasse… included.

Freya chose the bookshelf, of all places, for yesterday's #HedgewatchForCharlie but she thought that, with Harriet, Carrouffe and Willie all on the prowl outside, someone should be checking the interiors. Sending love and sympathy to Charlie's family.
