Scary moments with your cats...

As a balance to Chockbic's "nice moments with your cats".

Lounging in bed this morning, DH still asleep. Sinister MCat just staring like he wanted to kill us. He did that for half an hour. Constant staring.

Creepy cat. (I do luffs the sinister bastard though)

Hope it went OK x

RubbishMantra · 14/03/2015 13:46

Thank you x

Beta blockers, and a few more tests next week.

Upshot is, hubby's cleaning the house. Because he's "All geared up to do it." Grin

Bless him.

He's already broken the vacuum cleaner. Sad

How did he manage that? You will have to get him round with the dustpan and brush Grin

I've to be tested for celiac disease. Fast turning into a medical mystery Hmm

RubbishMantra · 14/03/2015 15:10

Oh, bless you. Have you been tested for giardia? It's not normally so serious, but if you have rheuamtoid arthritis, it can exacerbate it, causing ulceration to the intestine, preventing absorption of nutrients. My sis had that happen to her a little while ago.

He's fixed the hoover. Smile First time he's emptied it, so it's a bit of a learning curve for him. He panicked.

No I will add to the list Blush

RubbishMantra · 17/03/2015 12:09

Worth an askChock.

This is an, "annoying moment with your cat."

MTeen just came in and jumped on the bed. Placing muddy paw-prints all over my lovely 500TC sheets.

Now stalked off with the straw he'd gifted me. Oh, he's given it back. Now taken it back again.

Bless the curly idiot little creature.

Is that a GP or hospital thing? Only I can imagine her going: what the frig is that. Perhaps not in quite those terms.

Jack has a thing for mats. They shall be destroyed.

RubbishMantra · 17/03/2015 15:23

I think you bring in a piece of poo to you doc. Not just randomly, they might be upset. Ask them for a sample container, then they send it away for tests.

Had to remove my sheepskin rug because MTeen kept eating it. And me Uggs. He has a go at the mat outside the bathroom. And the doormat in the kitchen. What's their problem with mats?

OP posts:
chockbic · 18/03/2015 12:31

That made me laugh. I might just poo in reception.

Maybe it's the texture of mats? Reminds them of prey.

RubbishMantra · 18/03/2015 13:42

Yes. Have a squat in reception.

Or if you do decide to bring in a random piece of poo, make sure it's in a lovely be-ribbonned box.

OP posts:
chockbic · 19/03/2015 11:20

Nothing on scan.

Back to drawing board...

RubbishMantra · 19/03/2015 13:58

Oh bugger, must be frustrating not knowing what's happening.

Have you given your doc some poo yet?

The beta blockers are making me feel queasy. I had a big scare, thinking it was morning sickness! Shock Did a test and everything!

OP posts:
RubbishMantra · 19/03/2015 14:02

And sorry for shuffling right off topic with poo related matters.

OP posts:
chockbic · 19/03/2015 18:21

I'm proper fucked off with it to be honest Sad

Are the beta blockers for your heart?

RubbishMantra · 20/03/2015 04:11

I bet you are, you poor love. Sad

The beta blockers are for free floating anxiety. Confused

OP posts:
chockbic · 20/03/2015 12:06

Never heard of that. Sounds a bit ghosty.

For us poorly bubs Flowers

RubbishMantra · 20/03/2015 13:00

Grin Oh no! Ghosty anxiety sounds dreadful! For some reason, a lot of your posts make me think of horror films. The ghosty remark made me think of Grave Encounters. And then there's Basement Jack of course. Which really scares me, because I actually have a cellar, with a trap door in the floor.

Lovely. Now MTeen's dragged his shag bag in and is giving it a good seeing to. Why must he demand an audience?? Maybe he thinks he's auditioning for a porn film? Confused

OP posts:
chockbic · 20/03/2015 15:10

I reckon MTeen could star in his own porn film. He's had enough practice.

RubbishMantra · 20/03/2015 15:50

Christ, i only just walked through the door 10 minutes ago and he's back on it! Sad Oh, and the loud purring! Confused

Sex fiend MTeen.

Oh goodness me, where to start. We have 9 cats, so have had a few moments. We've had 2 go missing, one was 9 days the other 15 days.

I came home and our Shinobi had 3 week old kittens, and for the life of me I couldn't find them, seriously thought they'd escaped and then scared the life out of me when I went to chuck a load of washing in the basket and just saw two little eyes staring at me.

I think the worse one was when my idiot cat Lennon set himself on fire! I was cooking, took the pan of the hob and out of no-where, before I could put the pan down, or turn off the gas hob off, up he jumped and casually walked across the hob, and literally set himself on fire! Lennon hasn't been allowed in the kitchen while I'm cooking ever since. I don't think I've ever moved so quickly, covered him in a towel which appeared from no-where, patted him down. After I'd done that he peered out with a face of WTF!

chockbic · 26/03/2015 20:14

I broke his water dish today.

Dirty glances ever since.

RubbishMantra · 27/03/2015 13:49

Wrap, drop and roll Sugarplum. What's wrong with cats, do they just assume we're there to take care of their every single need? Including making sure they don't catch on fire? Oh yes, they're cats. We are there to serve the furry and entitled gods.

Just dirty glances Chock? He's much more forgiving than MCat. I'm currently bleeding from 2 fang wounds. Because I had the audacity to move a bit while he was cuddling me. He gives the most terrifying cuddles ever. I know it will always end in pain and blood. But he always suckers me in. Silly human that I am. No match for the felines.

Wanker.

Sounds as if you could do with a shark cage for MCat.

Ripper will store it up, don't worry. Then a frenzy of claws later.

My cracked stone on a rope, had a spider crawl out of the brush side. I've binned it.
