    My big ginger Tom sneezed last summer, and a big bit of grass was left hanging out of his nose.
    The poor fellow nearly went cross-eyed as he was trying to work out what was going on. The missus grabbed a tissue and pulled it out, snot and all.

    Apparently they eat a lot of grass.

    Must be a contractor.
    so that's where all my hard earned money is going... pesky Norpusses are fleecing me accounts.

    And they're probably moonlighting as dentists.

    She knows she's well inside IR35 and so is behaving like a permie.
    what like not doing any work, lazing around all day and expecting to be waited on?

    Indeed. I know may are employed in rodent capture roles but I suppose a feline's inherent casual cruelty makes them well qualified to become dentists.

    Apparently cats can sneeze

    Ours went to the vet this week for some dental work, since then has begun sneezing quite a lot. I never knew they could do this.

Working...
