Arghh

[chipshop]

My cat just jumped onto my beautiful new side table (he spotted a bird outside) and smashed it into our French windows. Badly damaged, I've only had it a week.

He retreated to a safe distance and sat quietly (unusual) looking a bit guilty! When I went to stroke him he bit my face (playing but still) so he clearly doesn't feel too bad.

That'll learn you - eg to position things more carefully.

Did the windows survive?

Bird's fault.
What are you doing putting your face in his mouth?

Everything's fine apart from the table.

Cat now knocking books and photoframes off the bookshelf. I have played with him today. A lot! Is this what happens when they turn one?

Having a large glass of wine.

I'm afraid it sounds as if the cat needs even more activity. Do you have anything that can amuse them without you? Any kibble puzzles as well?
