Evening all, had the mighty muster 3 months now and using electronic scales his weight has been, December 77g, January 78g, February 83g, does this seem about right?

Here he is enjoying some winter sun today in the lounge!

A walk on the carpet is very brave. Beatrice always empties her bladder Owen she is out for a 'long' walk and I just look at her in amazement at how much is produced!
