Prison Dramas, Bands and Ouija Boards - the Excellent Cats audition, sing and plot

[TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne]

Our feline overlords have so many current strings to their joint and several bows.

Auditioning for Series One of The Prison Cat, forming a band, and continuing to plot against their enemies by means of their Ouija Boards - will they even have time to sleep now?

Love a fangy kitty!😻

Linney staring across the room to instruct me that he hasn't been fed for several hours, while showing off his glorious tail.

That is indeed a magnificent tail, on a magnificent cat😻

I would like to see a few more glorious tails because I’m still annoyed with Madam Crash Bang who is really not sorry about what she did to my giant jade plant which I have grown from a tiny tube. Also, what is she doing leaping off the balcony? What kind of lunatic am I harbouring, lured by her pretty face and cloud like tail? I feel properly taken in. Here she is being very affectionate like nothing happened.

Here are some Very Good cats sharing the olive tree pot just like they are friends and not killing any of my plants.
There is also a photo of Cat One because he started complaining we weren’t taking a photo of him. He doesn’t kill plants but if you’re too slow with the snacks you can say goodbye to that cup you’ve got on the bench, and I admit I have some resentment about this. He’s never sorry either.

Here you go Leanora doing her ablutions showing off fluffy tail.

KeziaOAP: Leonora has excellent winged feet too. Bonus points for her and her tail.

Yes she does 😊. Her mum was Siamese, dad was a Ragdoll X with a long
haired breed, good job she loves being brushed as soon as brush is in hand she's there 🐱

I bought a shopping trolley as I am fed up with buying too much at Lidl and then having to carry it home. (Also I'm now old). There's something strange in it today though.

Goodness Rum, if you're old I'm ready for a care home.
😂

Ok, so maybe that's just what my friends said to me when I bought the shopping trolley 😁 But my Toad likes it and that's all that counts.

I also discovered tonight that Ghostie, who is the least food orientated of the tribe, loves apple crumble mince pies, mainly the crumbly topping but at one point she did try to take a bite of the whole thing!

Kitty’s feeling very cuddly tonight.

This is not a trap.

I think we may get rid of the water fountain. Both Basil and Sybil just drink from a pint mug on the kitchen table now.

And Sybil has now muscled Basil out of the way and is proving my point 😁

I could bet that if you put 2 glasses there, she'd still push Basil away to get to the one he was drinking from!

Girlcat does similar - 2 identical bowls of wet food put down, Tobias is to my right and she's to my left. She will immediately cut across to push him away from the bowl in front of him, ignoring the one in front of her. I thought at first it may have been that with the food in gravy, the first bit you squeeze out has a little more gravy but that makes no difference, nor does which bowl I put down on which side. She's just asserting her dominance - typical queen!

Too true. Why are cats like that? 🤣

Gizmo is very busy washing his front paw

Is the storm bad up there, @TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne?

Breadcat always drank from a pint glass, would not touch water in a bowl, hated the noise the water fountain made. We were worried how little she drank then one night I woke up to see her drinking out of my water glass at the side of the bed - yuck
Had special glass for her. Near miss with bil nearly drinking it though

In other news saw no cats in Singapore, have seen 1 so far in Malaysia but lots of monkeys. Will try to get a NMM photo

Is that the paw he attacks with? Obviously keeping it in tip top weaponised condition in that case!

Not as bad as SSE suggested it would be.

They always text me before a storm.

They text everyone who is on their priority services register.

Their inevitable advice is to phone them on 105 if I get into difficulties as a result of a power failure.

It never seems to occur to them that in the event of a power failure, the modem would stop working, so I wouldn't be able to use my phone.

Similarly, the landline wouldn't work, as it requires electricity to do so.

That renders their advice impossible to take.

But there is water dripping very slowly through my bedroom ceiling.

The HA are aware and will allegedly "do something about it".

I hope they attend before the ceiling collapses on to my bed, not to mention Linney's hoose and Gizmo's donut.

I have already got sick of Boys from the Black Stuff.

I've just finished Wimsey (Strong Poison) and will carry on to the Wilvercombe one. What's it called again?

Perhaps you could try a particularly brave pigeon? Failing that, telepathy I suppose. Kettle is very good at telepathically telling me he would like some of what I'm eating.
