Thanks everyone :-) It went OK! Very slow easing back into school, having been off since March, but OK. And Mater coped reasonably well - but tomorrow's going to be harder, as she'll be alone at home all day.

( Sad cat story, possibility of happy ending? )

I know I'm preaching to the choir, but people - please get your female and male cats neutered unless you are a responsible cat breeder, so there are fewer unwanted cats going stray.
