Kitten to Cat
It's a GOOD day in depressionland. I feel happy and upbeat. Must be the combo of getting to see my dad & kitty, and the strawberry inscense he was burning that I can smell in my clothes. Mmmmm!
Tia (the kitty) just hit that stage where she's an adolescent and it will take awhile for her to get any bigger than she already is. She's not really interested in tearing through the house anymore, now she's concentrated on human-hunting. Hands. Feet. Doesn't matter. She's getting alot smarter too.. dad has an electronic mouse toy (you tap on the back, it runs around saying stuff, screams, and then shuts off), she's learned how to turn it on by stepping on it, then she runs to hide and practices hunting it. It's cool to see her go through the phases of slowly developing her skills as a feline. When she was a kitten, her vision was limited to what was literally in front of her (if a toy went over her head or behind her back, she wouldn't think to turn around), and she wouldn't respond to human sounds like tongue-clicks and whistles. Now that she is an adolescent teen, she is very wise to how things move and function, and you can catch her attention by whistling or something similar.
*sigh* Dez just called. I haven't heard from her for about a month. She has a phone now. I swear that nearly everytime she calls me, her bf is in the background saying bad stuff about me. Today, he kept shouting at Dez (loud enough for me to hear) "she doesn't want to talk to you. she's not your friend, you never call her. why do you keep calling her your friend?" I dunno if that's some joke he gets a kick out of, or if he does that because he hates me. In the past, he's shown that he has a short-temper for anything that doesn't go his way.. so I choose to stay away from him. Unfortunately, Dez lives in the same house with him, and goes to alot of places with him, so I rarely get to see her. That's why he said that, but it's really rude for him to say that stuff while she's talking to me on the phone. He must really not like me.
