I would not have guessed either, except from external information like the use of initials, which is a signal in the US context.
It is nice to know that you are alive. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. My cats knocked the cat-biscuit box off the cupboard, got the lid off and ate everything. They were looking rather dyspeptic last night and drinking exceptional amounts of water. Serves them right. No-one was wailing for breakfast this morning, so we are taking advantage of the situation to change lunch to tinned food from biscuits, and only giving them biscuits as a little snack at supper. So it will be tinned Addiction for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and a few Orijen or Addiction biscuits for supper (we stopped tea last month).
Yeah, the initials should indeed have been a clue. Then again, B Kliban is B Kliban, so it's not infallible.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you, too :) I had in mind to ring you mid-December, but I came down with the hubby's awful cold and slept all the hours known to man instead; and then my sis-in-law turned up, which paid put to any such idea. My mother arrives next week. Sleep is increasingly an unknown thing.
Heh, your cats are too smart for their own good. We have kittens. Feeding kittens takes up every hour of the day, as well as worrying about kittens, talking about kittens, tracking kittens down, purchasing for kittens, fretting about kittens...At least the hubby is no longer weighing them twice a day.
I am still getting up at 6am to feed them, and then stumbling back into bed. Tea sounds rather more civilized.
The kitten schedule was 6.30 am, 11 am, 3 pm, 6 pm 9 pm. They got used to wailing to my housekeeper at 6.30 am and all points thereafter. We kept it when they grew up, but reduced the food. It is proving convenient, actually. Bus-stop Cat is a wall-jumper, so if we let him out half an hour before lunch or dinner, he has less time to get into trouble, since by the time he has fully updated himself on the garden, he doesn't have much time left to go over to my neighbours, or the building site at the back. Lap-cat has noticed that the birds come to the >Melastoma malabathricum for the fruit,and spends his time parked under it, hoping. Scaredy cat rolls around in the porch in the sun, and then follows Bus-stop Cat, though with less panache (he is not a natural jumper). I don't worry about purchasing; the cat supplies are delivered, and I don't bother with toys beyond the occasional toilet-roll cylinder.
By the way, I am going to be here for at least another year and a half, so you can come and visit at any time, JC&Di can assure you that my arrangements for guests are quite civilised really.
