I've put privacy film on the front room windows and he can't watch the world go by any more. He's sulking.

You should have bought 3 hanging mice, then none of them would have played with them.

I'm back with another one... I brought a mouse that hangs off the door and squeaks for my cats. One cat has played with it constantly whilst the other two look on sad and jealous they haven't had a turn, ones even growled over it. 😂 they have 100s of toys but they all want to play with the same thing. 🤦🏻‍♀️

@QueenPaw I know, I'm a terrible person!

Great taste in cushions! My house is full of Potter stuff.

I have the aftermath of a frozen shoulder which is still painful and I’ve just had my covid vaccination in the same arm. I’ve spent what seems like most of the night arguing that perched on my shoulder is not the best place to sleep.

I put flea/worming treatment on the back of her neck yesterday. She licked a drop and hates me. Then last night she was on my daughters bed looking like she was dying....she was layer like a sausage and ignored me when I went in. I was so worried (first time cat mum....I wasn't sure if she was so relaxed and happy or dying) I bothered her till she got up and moved. The kids announced she was playing dead to ignore me.....I think they were right. She still isn't talking to me this morning.....no eye contact, no purr when I fed her, moves away if I try to stroke her.....

I rejected his Easter gift and made him take it back out through the cat flap. It was very kind of him, but the only mice I eat are the chocolate variety.

QueenPaw · 03/04/2021 23:51

@coastergirl how dare you?! Also we have the same cushion

Strangekindofwoman · 03/04/2021 23:49

I bought him an off the floor cat feeder. He was disgusted and ran off upstairs and hid under the bed.

TheWaif · 03/04/2021 23:42

This evening I was winding up a plug extension and, I regret to say, I walked past him whilst doing it.

Lellochip · 03/04/2021 23:38

I put frontline on her, she cowered then went outside to sulk in the garden.

I cleaned the house. He's not impressed.

I stopped him from biting MIL's hand as it dangled temptingly above his nose as she sat in the front garden.

Secretly I'm very proud of his character judgement...

Sweep is 17 and arthritic. I noticed the other day that her back end has become matted and every time I attempt to brush her, I get hissed at. Today,I gathered my courage, pinned her onto my lap, cut out all the matted bits and then brushed out what was left. I was hissed and growled at and fully expect to be persona non grata for the rest of the day. Ds is home from uni and she's gone to be comforted and spoiled by him. I'm definitely going to be killed in my sleep!

happinessischocolate · 03/04/2021 18:43

I dared to go into my bedroom to put clothes away whilst he was having a nap, I got an evil look so I retreated back downstairs, he's still there so I haven't been able to make the bed yet.

Mia184 · 03/04/2021 18:19

I was laughing about something I read and Micky is sulking now

I won't let my cat on my knee while I'm at my desk. He's sulking by sitting on the cables on the floor. He won't look at me.

I gave my cat her routine worming meds this morning, she hates me now.

toffeebutterpopcorn · 03/04/2021 16:24

You lot are just so evil... looking at cat, sneezing within earshot of cat, feeding cat, not feeding cat, breathing near cat...

AlfonsoTheTerrible · 03/04/2021 16:22

I looked at AlfonsoCat while he was sleeping.

SappysCurry · 03/04/2021 12:55

Just blew my nose (loudly) whilst he was sleeping and startled him, now being glowered at 😻

QueenPaw · 03/04/2021 12:47

Wriggleout · 03/04/2021 12:46

I devastate him daily by telling him lunch is not a cat thing and he has to wait for supper. Its a highly emotive topic.

TangoWhiskyAlphaTango · 03/04/2021 10:12

I had the nerve to remove him from the ironing board as I needed to you know, iron. He was disgusted I'd disturbed his kip.
