Ziggy always requests his breakfast at an early hour. If I get up at 5am to go to the loo, as I did this morning, he invariably hears and comes calling for his food. But not today.
When we finally got up just after 7am he was still nowhere to be seen. I went out to the shed where he often spends time these days, and sure enough there he was, curled up on a sack on an old office chair.
When I spoke to and stroked him he hardly moved, and this behaviour is most unusual. The previous evening he’d climbed on my lap to watch the news, just as he always does.
At midday when I returned from my beach walk he was still sleeping in the shed. Stephen had been out and offered him a drink of water, but he wasn’t interested. We were beginning to think a visit to the vet might be required.
Mid afternoon he finally strolled in, had some food, and a good wash, then settled on a dining chair.
Maybe he just wanted a day in bed. We all need one of those occasionally.
Our cat was out of his routine
we wonder what this change could mean

Perhaps he had breakfast out today? So pleased to hear that he is better.

He sat on my lap to watch the news – just as usual.

Today he seems as normal. Asked for his breakfast at 5.30am.
