Sultan of F*cking "Ping"

It all began with me pinging a giant rubber band, which Little M would fetch. When disintegrated, I ordered him a bumper pack of the things. I get sad, accusing eyes if he deems it's time for Ping, and "Pffft" noises if I don't comply.

Now the game of Ping has disintegrated into me pinging the bloody thing, Little M gleefully pouncing on it, tossing it about, pretending he can't find it, or placing it just out of reach, resulting in me fetching it for him. Rinse and repeat, otherwise he becomes a small, tantrumming bulldozer.

Then the constant worry he might swallow it, so a mad dash about the house, (usually just before bed-time) to find the Ping, and lock it away from his little monkey paws.

He is a dick. But also the light of my life. He's looking at me with accusing eyes because I just put it away.

I really want a Devon as well. All Little M's fault!

They're not quite like other cats. A sort of mixture between friendly alien (Steven Spielberg's childhood cat was a Devon, and inspired the looks of E.T.), pixie, monkey and cat.

Here he is, pretending to be E.T. Grin

Stop teasing rubbish!

Ah, your snuffly Snorgmaiden and Fattycat are at least as adorable, Toddler. And I expect they're going to have the best Christmas they've ever had, since being rescued by you. Smile

*...not actually roasting, as in cooking of course! Envisioning stretching and luxuriating in the heat and a happy, lovely home.
