The phone lives. Kitten had one of the rare gravy foods that morning and Mook for some reason cannot handle it at all and usually won't touch it. So the one morning I had a phone on my desk charging she eats food she usually avoids walks over and pukes on the phone. I mean really ?
She was waiting until you got something new.
This could be worse. Hekitty's favored spot for this activity, which is called "smurgling," is the crook of my elbow. I spend most of my life looking like I have a skin disease from the claw pricks on my upper arm. She may outgrow this. She may not. I'm hoping that Hekitty will, but she'll be eight years old on April 1st of next year, so I'm prolly kidding myself (ya think?)
That is the cutest thing, oh my gosh.
It becomes less cute when you're the one with the tomcat on your chest, front paws dabbling on one side, tail stirring the water on the other, sandpaper tongue trying to dry your ribs. Oh, heck, I guess it is cute, but only in retrospect.
To my credit, I did try keeping the bathroom door closed, but Primus, being a cat of tremendous fortitude, would simply sit outside the door and yowl st the top of his not-inconsiderable lungs (this is the cat whose bass purr could be heard from 30 feet away...good lungs) until someone gave up, gave in, and let him in.
Except mine are female, and I have 3 that want to sit on my chest. That's why I keep the door closed when I take a bubble bath. There isn't any comparison to a lavender bubble bath - in peace. My friends say, "Oh well, He's just wacky that way", and their wives have a longing look in their eyes.
Yeah, vanilla smells wonderful, but The Ladies prefer the lavender. I have tried many aromas. After all, it is THEIR house, they only let me live here to feed, pet and take care of them
Yes, they lead me a merry dance. And yes, I love every minute of it.
I was putting on my shoes the other morning and one shoe didn't fit quite right. I shook it, but nothing came out so I reached down in to the toe and brought out the perfectly round oak gall I had found and brought in for miss Mooni to play with. I find that her intelligent, but very aggressive, behavior is better when she has lots of new toys all the time, so I find and bring in acorns and anything else that seems to be fun. She likes to carry them around in her mouth and I think this was one of the times, because there is no other way it could get in there! I had to laugh hard at that one.
