Newboy: sequel that's better than the original

[Lanaorana2]

Executive decision by Mr C.

But the minute you contemplate giving a toy/bed away, it's suddenly their favourite thing
Ollie now adores his cat bed. Not on the floor of course but placed on a chaise where he can recline in comfort...

Intelliheat was only a fiver - it was donated to the charity shop and even tho it was brand new from Amazon we couldn't sell it as had been opened. Trading Standards, innit. Men from the council do anonymous checks, believe it or not. I did the traditional donation into the tin and made off with it.

I am still on it. Mr C got on for a bit, purred, then jumped off screaming for food. He's annoying. The throw is lovely.

Every year I promise myself a heated throw. The cat has my other throw as his winter blanket.

Had you mentioned this before I switched it on.... hey, when we get another one I will post it to you Fluffy.

How is darling little ASBO today?

He's running round the house outraged at other cats walking up the road.

At least he's not outside and beating them up!

I have a heated throw! Haven't actually tried it with Ollie as I'm concerned he might physically then refuse to move off me. Ever

But......he can't actually refuse. You can just put him down, can't you?

Er he cries at me and digs his claws into my top. I basically end up wearing him
It's like trying to put stable cat down only with less blood

I should add the difference is you can eventually shift Ollie. If you put stable cat on the floor she just uses her claws to clamber back up you. Or smacks you for being a bad human. I just let her perch on my shoulder like a parrot

That's safest. Stablecat is a force of nature.

(Although The Lodger would have her eating out of his hand in 20 minutes, I reckon. )

Ollie mainly whinges about it. She goes "down? Down? How DARE YOU human?!"
< claws out to climb your leg >

Had a love-in with Mr C last night, he likes sleeping next to my head now. Snoring. Very tired this am, me not him. How is Newboy?

He's been playing with his feathered plaything. Not for long but Hey........

He's ferociously well muscled and fast. I wouldn't like to be a small furry thing in this house!

I'm amazed at how fast Siamese are - so speedy and slinky!!
Our other two kitties are slow by comparison and I won't even go into the sloth like behaviour for 23.5 hours of day that we used to experience from our beloved Persians before them. (.5 of the day was slightly manic however - fluffy missiles)

Newboy is very very fast indeed. Seniorboy spent most of his later years snoozing - but then he was a very old cat. (Even he had some notches on his gun belt though - from earlier years in my Mum's cottage.)

He's being incredibly nosey suddenly. If I catch his eye, he scarpers, but he seems to always be there or thereabouts while I'm doing chores.

He likes knowing where you are and keeping An Eye. Adorable. :)

I'm hoping - and it may be a vain hope - that all this extra 'busyness' in the daytime will lead to a quieter night. I'm used to lying in bed with a small furry body stretched out next to me - not lying listening to 'Kerboom' and 'Thud' from downstairs.

Best to keep an eye on the Creature
Maybe this will extend to staring at the Creature when she sleeps soon

Oh C, one of these days you will get a decent kip. Maybe.

Ois dead right - the moment you finally pass out into an exhausted coma, sometime around 4am, you will wake to a gimlet eye giving you the enraged Feed-Me stare.

I haven't got dressed yet. Mr C is on me waiting impatiently for me to drop off again so he can thieve the last M&S miniature pork pie.

He already appreciates that he has to be quiet in the mornings. I am NOT good first thing.

I make the espresso for my lattes in bulk now, it shaves vital seconds off caffination time & means I only put the grinder on once a week now.

ASBO not keen on the grinder?

He's not allowed out until his food is done & the coffees in the microwave.
