The Further Adventures Of Newboy

[RubbishMantra]

I don't think anyone's begun a new thread yet?

Hope you don't mind Cozie. Newboy's Fairy God(cat)mothers love hearing about his progress.

Call the Feds on the brute. :)

Call the Feds on the brute. :)

If you asked me about Dreamies, I'd ask which ones - the living room pack, the bedroom pack or the kitchen store packs. I'm not allowed to go to bed without treating the masters, or get out of bed in the morning without getting the sweeties out!

I receive a complaint if he arrives on the bed and discovers that there’s been no spontaneous generation on the coverlet.

Well, there's only one solution there. Could you put them on the bed when you get into it, so he finds them in the night?

I hope Dbro has recovered from his tactlessness and bought Newboy a present.

I assume he's complaining rather in the manner of the lack of turn down service including a chocolate on the pillow in a 5* hotel.

I'd like my bed covers to spontaneously produce treats

I (ill-advisedly) went downstairs leaving part of my lunch (tongue salad with mayonnaise) upstairs and unguarded.

I’d forgotten what it was like to have a young, fast and food-obsessed cat around.

Has your lunch been nibbled at?

Somewhat!

Ah. More a large mouthful then
Ollie steals scrambled eggs and anything sour cream flavour

Newboy is now back in his room after receiving an admonishment. Very low profile.

He’s just been given two Dreamies ‘on coverlet’ and is having a little wash.

Long rider

Mr C had egg for his lunch too! Also thieved! He is fat as a barrel and Getting On but boy do they move when required.

Maybe we should start a separate thread, "Things my cat has stolen!"

We've had some audacious thefts over the years, a side of smoked salmon, from a buffet, marzipan balls from a Christmas cake, sausages from under a lit grill. One cat learned how to open the fridge and would nick the butter and leave tooth marks in the cheddar cheese...

....learned how to open the fridge.....

Oh My. That’s my final redoubt.

My parents had a child lock on the fridge.

My friend has just taught his dog "bring dad a beer"
Dog opens fridge and brings a beer bottle to him

Funnily enough, Mr C is getting quite civilised. Last night I made ready to enjoy yellow-sticker corned beef and crackers for supper. He sat by the plate looking at it but did not steal - i was on phone. He just licked the butter a bit.

Finally I hung up and prepared to sink my teeth in. The moment I did, a paw flew out and grabbed a slice - and I reprimanded him. I actually said Oh Honestly, can't I eat a single mouthful in my own house and....the paw retreated, he blinked lovingly at me and sat back down.

I’m relieved that you can actually get locks for fridges!

Fireworks have started. I guess I’m going to find out how he reacts.

Already? It's about time we made them pro only.

How is he coping with them?.

Ah yes, fireworks. They started here tonight, loads of very loud bangs right near my house - Boycat just pricked his ears up, raised his head for a second, & went back to drooling & purring while & tickled his tummy. I was SO proud of him

Got some here too. Mr C asked for an extra meal.

Any excuse, eh?

(He didn’t seem to notice them. I think that The Creature is far scarier. )
