Well, damn

We don't watch much live TV, usually just cricket, the Euro and World cups... and the Olympics. So of course the cats choose now to do some indefinable damage behind the entertainment complex (TV, DVD player, TiVo etc. They've probably disconnected wires. [rolls eyes] And this after a couple of weeks that have brought us vomit on a keyboard, worse

When I got home from my travels yesterday Small Furry made a break for it and escaped. I am presuming that was reparation for being stuck in her cage for three days (even if it is a rather posh huge new one).

The good thing is she is getting to the nosy stage, so if you spot where she is and sit down and wait she'll come and sniff you. Then you can grab her!

Awww, cute! At least she doesn't fiddle with wiring. Jasmin was behind the TV last night but she must have gone back overnight. Sigh.

Thankfully this one doesn't eat things. Previous ones ate clothing, or wires, or both. This one just hides in holes and sticks her nose where she might lose it!

I've had to put two lovely rugs away. I need to get the tassels taken off (they've gnawed them) and the edges re-whipped.

They do have a scratching post and surface and they do use both but it hasn't stopped them trying their claws elsewhere. :-( I love them to bits but there's definitely a downside.

Without putting myself back into a bad mood by being specific, let me just say, I am *totally* on your wavelength re: our cats. I have long believed that they really ARE alien beings sent here to enslave humans, and they have succeeded - there is no other explanation for why I continue to coddle, feed, pet, groom, vet, clean up after, and worry about these messy, destructive beasts.

Oh, hold on - the old cat's meowing about something. I have to go--

[vilakins]

Yes, and we stay in uncomfortable positions on the sofa or in bed for fear of disturbing the little creatures. So far I haven't cut a sleeve off though!

They're alien all right. They can teleport and disappear to other dimensions.

they rely on the softening of our hearts

It's true; I can't stay angry for long. If they want cuddles, they get. :-)

Our cats. Yes, I recognise that case. Fortunately Tygr has never been a "dismantling type".:-)Well, he does thousands of other things.
But they know us too well. And we love them very much...

[vilakins]

Oh, they do, and we do!
