I guess he wanted everyone to go home...

Poor Scratch. My black shaggy cat doesn't really care for too many people. He's bonded with DH and I, and that's about it. This weekend we threw a birth day party for a very close friend of ours, and Scratch crashed the party... literally.

Let me set it up for you:
We have a coffee table where all of our friends had put there wine glasses, cake, ice cream, and other plates of food. As I was standing in the kitchen I heard an extended crash. Scratch, apparently, hopped on the table, panicked, and did a butt scoot across the whole thing. He knocked everything off. I then hear this:

"What the was that?"

"Can I have another piece of cake?"

I found him, terrified, in our back room... meeping.

Oh, poor baby! I hope that your guests were understanding!

They were just shocked that I had a 3rd cat. It's sort of a joke that I have three but when you come over you'll only see two.

His first public introduction didn't go as well as he had expected.

You had me fooled. Before I started to read the posts I assumed based on the title alone that this would be about 8-Bit. Did he put Scratch up to this?

Poor little Scratch. Is he doing better today? Not meeping too much, I hope.

Aw! So little time, so many things to knock over.

Aww... poor Scratch didn't expect to make such a loud entrance and scared himself. I swear, he and Wickett could have been separated at birth. Hope he's feeling better today.

Poor Scratch - He just wanted to say hi and got scared

Good to see your friends obviously didn't mind too much - They still wanted cake!

Aw poor baby! Not at all what he expected. Hope he's recovered from his fright!

Scratch was probably thinking, "This stuff wasn't here before!" Awww, what a sweetie

Poor kitty, I hope he's not hiding anymore, he just wanted to make a grand entrance

Awww! Poor Scratch.

Hey, did you ever read the "Cat Who" series? Koko (one of the cats in it) did the exact same thing once, except he did it because his owner was having a party and disturbing his bedtime routine

Only a cat!

Aww, that poor baby!

Tricia

Awww, poor baby!

I am throwing a baby shower this weekend and am keeping Matilda & Chloe in a bedroom with the door shut (and water, litterbox, toys, etc.). I just know that Chloe will try to eat everyone's food.

awww poor little guy i bet he startled himself more than the guests...i hope he got lots of cuddles afterwards even though he did "bad" lol

Poor Scratch! He just wanted to finally make a public appearance, but it didn't work out like he hoped for. I hope he is feeling better today.
