Eight down and a saucer of milk

Tuesday, August 05, 2003

 
Scully sadly had to be put to sleep on the 31st of July 2003 following a collapse.

With grace and elegance Scully was an feline Audrey Hepburn, a Miss Golightly. From street gangs she left her fight tattered Tomcat to retire to a world of comfort. Unaccustomed to human life she took her time to learn the comfort of a lap and a cuddle. She ruled her home here with a swift paw and a steely gaze for her feline companions and with loyalty and affection for her human family. Sadly the harm had been done in the world outside, silently awaiting discovery, FIV. Scully had a four years of luxury and love; a warm lap, the finest foods, swift medical attention and a saucer of milk. Scully loved to be picked up.. seemingly never happier than when draped over one shoulder snuggling close and purring. I think I will miss that the most.

Thankyou for sharing Scullys ninth life with us, and a special thankyou to all those who wrote with their condolences. The exploits of Scully's friends will continue in a new blogger.... because I am unsure if no further updates will lead to eventual deletion this blogger will be duplicated on my Website in Scully's memory.

Its back!

Oh yes… the little one returns… an I think they have been feeding it ‘e’ numbers while it was away ::rolls eyes::

Its not like I missed it, but I know the human lady was fretting so I am pleased he’s home and safe. Still, not impressed with him pushing me off her lap… jus cos he’s small doesn’t give it the right to her lap! ::looks cross briefly:: still... it is kinda funny watching it chase Jetson round the house, kinda like watchin a kid on a push bike chasing a tank lol Poor Jetson.

Talkin of laffs I am awaiting Chewi’s bin jumping exploits to reach a climax… he’s been trying to jump onto the kitchen bin, only thing is, it’s a flip top bin ::wicked grin:: oh I cant wait!

::admires her coat as she washes:: I do seem to be able to keep my coat looking good at the moment… been months since she sprayed that stuff on me ::shudders:: if only I could put some weight on … shame me an Jetson cant trade some lol

Oh yes, we have a new litter tray. Its ok I suppose ::looks peeved:: its still a hooded one but very deep… makes it awful hard to kick out the litter… tut … who designs these things??? (number 3769 reason i think humans are an inferior life form)

well time for a nap… after some milk… of course

Well??... have you missed me? ::pretends too look disinterested in your answer by washing her face::

You are soooooo not gonna believe everything that has been going on here ::rolls eyes:: the little one arrived of course, oh my what a racket! Still he’s kinda ok, you know, as far as kittens go.

Jelly seems to approve of him ::coy glace:: not that that makes any difference to me of course… Jetson is terrified of him ::laffs:: and spends most of his time running in the opposite direction! Willow, well, Willow is being weird as ever… her behaviour has no reasoning at the best of times… and as for what she thinks of the little one ::shrugs dramatically:: one minute she’s chasing it the next she’s running as if her tails on fire.. hmmm now there’s a th…. never mind ::wicked almost grin::

Anyway… the little one looked a bit overwhelmed and I found it was actually quiet if I allowed it to snuggle up to me… not that I generally permit that sort of thing but I needed some peace ::looks away casually::

::sigh:: then he fell ill… we didn’t think much of it at first.. just an upset stomach but he kept licking his behind so they put a plastic funnel on his head… humans tut. The poor mite looked a site… all plastic cone and not much kitten … terribly undignified :;solemn look:: and then ::heavy sigh:: well he got much worse and they took him away … the vet I suspect .. and he didn’t come back … over heard a few things; tests, x rays, shadow in his gut, food intolerance… that kinda thing.

::looks uncomfortable:: place seems so quiet ::returns to washing her face::

The lady human is supposed to be going to her parents down south for her mums birthday weekend … she’s been um’ing and ah’ing all evening over whether to go.. seems she is hoping to go later on now after she’s spoken to the vet tomorrow.

I will keep you posted of course on the little ones progress :;stops washing and starts to walk to the kitchen:: and if they ever.. ever… put a funnel on my head… ::voice trails off to a mutter as she disappears up the hallway::…

Willow has discovered after many months of study how to get on top of the wardrobe ::grins:: of course she didn’t manage this alone.. Jelly, whom as many of you know I believe is almost worthy of my interest, showed her how ::eyes twinkle:: unfortunately he forgot to show her how to get down lol

Picture this if you will…

Jelly jumps rather gracefully down from his side of the wardrobe... so silently that it takes Willow a minute to notice... then a pause as willow ponders on her situation, followed by a torrent of noise as she falls (I simply cant justify the word ‘jump’ here) from the wardrobe accompanied by almost everything that was stacked up there! An almighty crash as hits the washing bins and is promptly avalanched by everything that followed her. ::beams:: Class.

Do you know what really made me smile? It was when she did it all over again the following night!!! Lol The chuckle brothers and I have bets on how many falls she will take before she lands on her feet

::grooms her right ear:: darn my ears are itchy.. something called eczema the human vet thing said ::shudders:: how I hate that place.

One week till the lady human trundles off to the south to meet with the red furry human to bring back the kitten ::sigh:: I suppose I will have to share her even more then tut. I wonder if this one will steal my milk too ::rolls eyes:: speaking of the divine…

::Rubs her eyes:: Wish they would stop running its making a right mess of my fur ::looks at tear marks on paws:: the human lady will get those disgusting wipe things out again if I'm not careful ::shudders:: even the box gives me the willies. My fur is looking pretty shabby lately I have to admit ::sigh:: I haven't had the energy to keep it tidy. The human lady keeps looking at it I just know I am gonna get shampooed.. Oh well better that than those wipes!!

Oh classic moment! Jelly is collarless at the moment cos he got one leg thro it and then got stuck ::grins:: came wandering.. ok ..hobbling into the room pretending nothing was wrong ::laffs:: not the most successful attempt at casual. It was jammed in so tight the human man had to cut it off hehe so Jelly is free to go on a silent killing spree.. ::raises an eyebrowwhisker:: ... I await with interest

Willow actually made a break for freedom the other day! Some religious humans came to the door while the human lady was home from work due to a sore throat. While she was distracted with saying no then the religious people not understanding no (tut even I understand no... but don't tell the humans that ::grins::) then the lady human saying no in a different tone of voice and the religious people still not understanding no .. then the lady human saying no in a different tone of voice and the religious people still not understanding no .. well you get the idea lol.

Anyway, it was during this commotion that willow made a break for it.. she got all of half way down the drive and froze.. the human lady shouted at the religious humans who proceeded to try to round up Willow ::giggles:: they did look odd in their smart suits with a look somewhere between total panic and bewilderment on their faces. The human lady runs out in her bare feet and willow gets startled (she hadn't even appeared to notice the religious folk flapping round her lol) and runs... erm.. straight back in the house ::laffs heartily:: some escape plan!!

::yawns:: I wonder if jelly has left me any of my milk? ::wonders off::

When prying.. erm... stumbling across the human womans mailbox today i found this letter from the kitten that she is adopting in may...

hello mummy

it's chewi - the odd human man with the weird red fur let me use the compootermerator thingy to write you a letter ::grins:: silly one he is... been running about trying to take piccies of me all day, but i was clever enough to move just as he took them ::giggles:: but he did manage to get one of me when I wasn't really ready... and the weird red furry one smiled and said that i looked like a startled rabbit... whatever one of those are... they taste nice anyway... ::shrugs::

i have been very busy today... alfie and padme, me bro an sis, were picking on me a bit, so i pushed them off the table when they weren't looking ::giggles under his paw:: and then i was chasing them up and down the stairs over and over again.. but I somehow annoyed the weird red furry one because I used his leg to help me get up onto his lap... how was I supposed to know he was wearing shorts? silly boy...

he was a bit upset tho today which was why i wanted to sit on him.. he'd been led on or something by someone he was going to meet.. not sure if he is going to now tho.. he was saying something about why he falls for people too easily and that he should just remain single for the rest of his life... as I said.. he a silly boy.. i mean, doesn't he know that he'd still have 8 lives to go on? thats what my stripey mummy said anyways ::yawns::

anyway i had better be getting on... i have an important meeting with my hammok and I don't want to be late.. i'll get the weird red furry one to send you that pic of me.. hope you like it!

love chewi
xxxxxxxx

:;stretches:: well i thought i should sneak on here before i root to the arm of the sofa hehe

Things are kinda quiet round here lately so i havent written much... Jelly continues to do his territory expansion rounds, and willow continues her mission to pretend to be a normal cat. Willow actually purred for the human lady the other day when stroked, i think everyone in the house stopped and stared for a moment. Of course then she resumed normal service and started running around for no apparent reason lol.

Jetson lost his bell the other day and caught a small bird in under ten minutes of being outside! I didnt think he had it in him ::impressed:: i think the humans were upset, they always blame themselves when one looses their bell and goes on a killing spree. Humans are so odd about hunting... they train you up with toys and then when you put it to the test outside they go all squeamish ::rolls eyes:: (number 3767 reason i think humans are an inferior life form) man.. do they ever have issues!

::surfing her message board:: Oh look! the lady human has written a poem about me ::beams::

i love my beau'ti'ful fem fe'line
grace'ful'ly el'e'gant at all time
her purr a div'ine sound to hear
and so to my heart she flows such cheer
im'ag'ine my home with'out her there
is just sim'ply a sight i can'not bare
please send her your thoughts to com'fort her
to soo'the her soul and hear her purr

::looks a little sad:: i am not worried about my future... but i feel for my human companions, it must be hard for them.. worrying about tomorrow... as a Feline i concentrate on the journey rather than the destination. (number 3768 reason i think humans are an inferior life form)


Speaking of inferior beings.. Jelly made me giggle the other day ::wicked glint in her eye:: he was scent marking a sponge on the side of the bath, he got pretty carried away in the moment ::grins:: and forgot the shower curtain isnt solid... fell into the bath minus catlike grace and certainly blew the myth about us landing on our feet ::giggles:: you know how when someone trips over they do that over the top panicked struggle that jus makes them look even less cool and then they realise they arent about to die after all and try to pretend nothing happened... bless lol

All this talk makes me thristy mmm....

Well… I have news… it seems the human lady is going to buy the male human out of the bungalow which is good cos means I ..erm.. I mean we ::smiles:: don’t have to move. Hmm mind you it seems Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb ::tries not too giggle… but not too hard:: will be staying around a bit longer cos he says he cant take them with him for a while.

::chews claws:: Still I find myself thinking Jelly is almost verging on cool lately… you know he actually caught a magpie the other day?! You should have heard the noise… was a big one too... tho don’t let him know I said that ::grins:: if you peer through the cat flap you can still see the blood splatters all over the doorstep ::laffs:: I bet that pleased the humans…

I hear he couldn’t lift it off the ground once he had killed it ::sly grin:: tho, that’s strictly ‘hear say’ hehe

Think Jelly’s ego is a little dented jus now anyway since Willow beat him in a fight lol she’s getting pretty tough that one fer an indoor oddcat, had a few run ins with her myself recently… tho I really cant be bothered with that kind of thing... so I wasn’t really trying ::looks casually at her feet:: I am far too elderly for those sorts of shenanigans these days ::sigh::

I have lost some teeth…well actually... quite a few…erm well… seems... most of them really lol, but to be honest its not so bad cos my mouth is much less sore now and I guess that’s why I have my appetite back ::shrugs:: plus I am getting wet food morning and evening now (when the others have their booooooring crunches) and extra catmilk…. Of course ::beams::

Speaking of extra catmilk……

Its been a while since my last entry... i have been a little frail lately and so has my human lady companion so i have neglected my journal duties ::looks most appologetic::

Well things are moving on here, the bungalow is up for sale and the human lady is looking for our new home... i hope it has a see thro catwindow..erm.. i mean catflap, tho i heard her saying we wont need one cos Jelly and Jetson arent comming with us.. they are going with the male human. I think i will actually miss them ::sigh:: well aexcept when jelly nicks me milk tut.

Willow is comming with me... i guess thats ok, shes was doing quite well, almost convinced me she was learning cat protocol and then..... ::shakes head:: ....

.....the humans bought some new hunt practice equipment, one of them was a long red feather tail on a stick, willow took to this with a passion i was quite impressed to see... at first ::rolls eyes to ceiling:: but then she started to growl at it... most undignified i must say and then she actually ...barked at it.. oh yes it was as clear as day .. she barked! ::hides chin to conceal the hint of a giggle:: what are we gonna do with that cat!??? even the humans looked in considerable shock. I believe they had to hide the stick after that cos willow kinda lost it altogether and kept trying to drag it off and bury it ::gently bangs head againt monitor:: i ask you? lol

so...... back in the vaguely normal world... ::grins:: i have had it on good information the human lady has agreed to allow a new kitten to move in with us in about 10/12 weeks called chewi (chewbacca) .. what is it with humans and bizzarre names???? ::laffs:: anyway this one is a siamese ::looks bemused:: so another odden for me to ignorr then ::wicked grin:: will be interesting seeing him settle in with our willow!

Still if this new kit keeps willow out of me hair i wont mind... so long as it remembers its place i think we will be ok ::washes face:: i have my ladies lap well scent marked ::yawns:: now milk or sleep? ::wags tail indecisively::

Had a lucky escape last few days.. the lady human wanted to take me too the vets cos she says i have blood on round my mouth :o/ but today i have felt better and have none so shes waitin a bit longer. I am trying to put weight on tut am eatin as much of everyone elses food as i can it jus doesnt seem to settle hehe

Sad news today... the rabbit, Brandy was found dead this morning ::respectful silence:: she was an elderly girl of 11 which is wise old shamen years fer a rabbit i am told. The lady human is very upset, i heard her saying that she feels bad because she didnt stroke her when she fed her the last time, shes been crying tonight ::looks sad::

So i dedicate this entry to Brandy:

I am told Brandy came to the lady human as a rescue rabbit.. she was a bit battered and bald in places. She immediately bonded with the humans other rabbit companion Binny. They spent these early days as close friends sleeping on each others laps. Then when Binny reached puberty she devoloped a preference fer other girl rabbits (oh yes!) and began.. erm.. becomming over intamate with Brandy, a situation Brandy was not happy with and they had to be separated.

They remained in nighbouring rabbit runs and spent most of their life baskin in the sunshine and plotting complex escape plans... fence destruction being Brandys hobby of choice ::grins:: Brandy turned black at some point... the lady human believes this was to be awkward as Brandy clearly hated most of human kind :;laffs:: and no doubt dissapproved of her human name lol

Brandy settled into a love hate relationship with her lady human.. erm.. Brandy loved to hate her lol her favourate expression of this love being ankle bitting... she would wait fer the lady human to turn around when cleaning the run and launch.. not too dissimilar from the rabid rabbit in Monty Pythons movie 'The Holy Grail' lol I think she missed her calling to stardom there! she claimed they offered the part but she was afraid of type casting hehe

Sadly in september of this year Brandy's companion of 8 years, Binny died at age 9 and Brandy clearly missed her greatly. Brandy lost much of her sparkle, tho she bravely persisted in her food dish tossing duties, she jus wasnt the same. Then this morning Brandy finaly left this world to join Binny in the land of never ending grassy plains and sunshine .... fairwell Brandybutter :o)

Sheesh this house is depressing at the moment ::rolls eyes:: bout the only good thing is that the lady human has started letting me sleep on her bed.

I am really worried about Willow shes loosin wieght.. god was that me? lol. For some reason the male human has been giving all his attention to Jelly.. think its cos the plan is for him to have Jelly and Jetson and fer me and Willow to go with the lady human. Poor Willow shes always been his favourate and shes missing him i think, shes gone off her food and seems to have taken to living in the washing basket... she reminds me of Oscar from seasame street.. cept he had a trash can... erm.. and was blue.. er .. well whatever hehe

Mind you she is getting close to my lady human.. hmm.. not sure how i feel about that.. i guess its ok so long as she remembers shes mine ::chews claws::

My paw seems better jus now... ::waves paw:: not nearly as mouldy.. see? I was gazing out the window the otherday... do you know its been over two years since i was allowed out ::sigh:: mind you i have sneaked out a few times ::whistful glint in the eye:: ahh memories ::grins:: been a while.. i guess i jus cant be bothered lately. I sometimes wonder to the door when she opens it fer Loral and Hardy.. er.. i mean the other two. It smells interestin but i dont try to hard cos its very cold ::shudders:: think i have gone soft tut

Cat gangland seems so far away... mind you i can still hold me own against this daft rabble ::laughs:: not like i gone totally domestic you understand tut .. hmm is that me milk saucer i hear? er.. maybe i should go check on.. something ::looks a bit sheepish and toddles off::

Well its been a while, things are uneasy in this household at the moment ::sigh::

Am worried cos my humans appear to be splitting up... I think it means I will go with the lady human and the others with the man... that at least means i will get some peace at last. Mind you its so quiet at the moment as if we all sense the tension and are showing a respectful calmness.

I think also they are worried about me again, i admitt i am feeling more restless and a bit fed up. Think i maybe loosing wieght again.. and my appetites not so good.. can feel another trip to the little vet o horrors coming on ::pulls sucked lemon face::

They even went and found me a new selection of the posh nosh i like hehe so its not all bad ::grins:: ohh ohh and i had cream today mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm heh

Coo its blowin a gale outside today!!

As always Jelly begged to be let out and then even he stood on the threshold of the patio door, with his ears blown back and his eyes barely able to open in the strength of the wind, unable to bring himself to take that step out. So we have all been entertaining ourselves ::wicked grin:: with the humans today. Jelly began the day well hes discovered that if he sneaks under the duvet willow cant find him... though i think it gave the human woman a slight shock when he first did it lol

Jetson has been sleeping all day... never seen a cat sleep quite that much ::thinks:: nope never.

Willow is busy freakin the human woman out as usual ::giggles:: shes really good at it at the mo, i am quite proud of her lol. She normaly ignors the humans most of the time preferring instead to gaze at Jelly or at the walls.. the latter freaks them out a little tho i think they are kinda getting used to it now. This time however she has truely surpassed herself and very soon if she keeps this up i may try to like her.

She has been seeking out the human lady and then sitting bolt upright in front of her wherever she happens to be, usually the desk or dinning table, and then she jus sits there staring at her intently... right into her face, unflinching.. for ages... its class. The human lady is totally bewildered. Then as if thats not entertaining enough once she knows the human lady is suibtably unnerved by her staring she casually glimpses over the ladys shoulder at something thats not there hehehe ohh yes shes good.

As for me? well lately i find myself meowing and then forgetting why i was meowing... infact i seem to be meowing an awful lot really... hmmm ... and then i heard the humans disscussing my mental state earlier... well really!

Nothing wrong with my memory... tut... nothing that a saucer of milk couldnt fix anyway ::grins and wonders off::

well its been a few days since i came online ... have been lookin after me lady human cos shes feelin blue. dont look so suprised its not all cupboard love ::grins:: i do care! besides she gives me extra milk cos she likes it when i notice shes sad lol

so i did the old shoulder snuggle routine and she looks happier but i am keepin a close eye on her, these humans are very emotional animals you know, hmmm mus add that to my 'reasons why cats are more evolved' list hehe

well willow is still makin her breaks for freedom... shes not getting much better at it tho ::laffs:: am sure shes gonna knock herself out on the catflap ::wicked grin:: i spose i could tell her its locked one way hehe

she has taken to hiding behind the curtain of the patio door, cept she only hides her front half and forgets her back half is stuck out the other side tut ::rolls eyes:: its so embarrising to watch lol

I think the romance tween willow and jelly in on the wane. Shes been giving him the cold shoulder, i dont know why but i think shes not too impressed that hes started takin to the human mans lap cos thats her usual perch. I snuck popcorn onto the humans shoppin list incase theres a good fight ::grins::

Some one has been chuckin up ::looks innocent:: hey dont look at me! i aint saying nought lol but cos the humans arent sure if its me shes got paranoid its me milk so shes started buying catmilk mmm... ::washes paws casually:: heh

Humans are soooooo dangerous! tut!

Yesterday i was innocently surveying the catflap when the lady human came in thro the door and exclaimed somethin about me tryin to get out (tut as if ::koff::) and tried to drop the shoppin between me and the door cept she missed and bopped me on the head with her shoppin bag. Only problem was she knew it had a jumper in it ..oh yes nice an soft.. but forgot it had the wine bottle in it too!!!!!! OUCH! then she proceeded to carry me about goin 'oh no poor kitty poor kitty.. dont hate me.. so sorry' while the male human was laffin his head off callin her a kitty basher which jus seemed to unbalance her even more an add to the 'poor kitty' behaviour ::sigh:: HUMANS! cant live with em.. cant sell em ::grins::

Anywaaaay... it was all worth it cos she then produced some really posh nosh she had bought me called high life mmmmmmm... hehehe ohh shes such a push over! As usual i allowed the others to examine me chin after i finished scoffin it.. wouldnt want em to feel left out now would i? ::cheeky grin::

Had it today too its so yum i cant stand the suspence as it creeps out the foil pouch!!! shes sooooooo slow i almost had time to breathe today while i waited to dive in! To think i have been with out it all these years.. my life has been jus an empty vessel awaiting the enlightenment of highlife pouches! ::drifts off into a daydream::

ohh yes where was i? yes my paw is so much better... jus as well cos i have to go back to the vet soon an i soo aint gonna be jabbed again tut. Also my coat is lookin rather cool even if i do say so myself.. she says its these conditioning tablets i been havin. Ha! well i thought they were treats TUT! so i soon put a stop to that (tablets indeed!) and now i stopped eatin em heheh shes most annoyed lol ohh fer little victories ::chews claws, smiling:: i think if i keep this up she'll jus have to start buyin the cat milk (with vitamins) again ::spits out claw chippin and grins::

What do they expect? its strawberry ::pulls face:: its definately evidence number 3766 that humans are an inferior species ... i ask you? STRAWBERRY who on earth decided to make cat medicine strawberry flavoured ::rolls eyes:: i mean you see me eating strawberries alllll the time ::laffs:: ...humans tut.

Must say i am rather impressed with Jelly, he seems to have found away to detatch his bell and tag. Its driving the humans nuts! ::laffs:: i almost like him. hes a good mouser too... and erm.. what do you call a cat thats good at killin birds? ::thinks:: birder jus dont sound right?? oh well anyway hes an impressive hunter... if i was younger, less contagious and he had all his parts.. erm this is jus not the place ::grins::

The best part is Jelly kills em... then hes way to smart to bring em in.. ohh no! (humans think cats bring them dead animals as a sign of respect? well some of the dafter ones do but us smart cookies ::wicked grin:: we jus do it to wind em up hehe) Jelly waits fer Jetson to be let out and then Jetson (being not so smart bless him) takes em to the human lady ::gigglin:: and she tells him off!! ::laffin hard now:: sadly she caught Jelly doin this so it doesnt work now but it was a cool scam while it lasted

It was terrible.. that Vet poked and proded, i growled at her a bit, but i think she was deaf cos she didnt stop! if fact she even had the nerve to stick a thermometer up my.. well.. you know, and then.. oh yes, theres more! then.. she stuck a huuuge needle in me neck! i mean... are we in the dark ages here????!!

well... its been an odd weekend.

My human lady has looked really sad, i dont know why... seems she doesnt either??? (number 3765 reason i think humans are an inferior life form) she was muttering something about being nearly 30 and pms may be somekind of place shes been to.. think she should avoid it in future! 30 indeed... bah i'm over 70! and i simply havent had anywhere near my usual quota of attention tut.

Had an escape near miss the other day... had a plan layed out fer getting out the house. It was purrfect ::giggles::
Every day after food jetson trotts upstairs and jelly asks to go out, when the human lady opens the door jeston comes flying down the stairs (helped by his rather erm...ample size) and towards the open door... she has to keep it open or his motion (unstoppable at this point) would carry him head first into the glass door!
soooooo... i waited jus a little way back from the door, and everything went like clock work; jelly... door.... jetson... i geared my self up and launched myself in jetsons wake... but alas she was so quick! she managed to shut the door between jetsons tail and my nose ::pouts:: still she is only human and i will prevail ::sly grin::

Tut yesterday was a bad day ::sigh:: i was very sick all over my male humans job acceptance letter ...the female human seemed remarkibly ok with this and jus kept strokin me and askin me if i was ok... i wonder if i can use that one on demand? ::slightly wicked grin:: i feel fine now but she seems obsessed with picking me up and remarking on how light i am, very odd behaviour.

Talking of odd behaviour... She was watching the TV machine last night, which was also behaving rather alarmingly, and very loudly! she calls it kerrang TV, i think that mus be a human word for broken.. but i cant be sure.

Willow, the youngest of the bratcat pack ::grins:: seems to be rather less annoying lately, i do believe shes growing up at last! The humans keep saying she isnt allowed out because she had some sort of head injury as a kitten that means she is a bit slow at learning things. Personally i think shes the product of too much catnip but she claims its not a problem and that she can give up any time ::knowing smile::

Hmm.. now where was i going before i was distracted? oh yes! a nice saucer of mi....::wonders off muttering::

I used my full powers of kitty persuasion and wey hey! i was in cheese heaven, man humans are easy ::wicked grin::

Well finally my fur is gettin better... bout time too i smell like a perfume counter lol very uncool fer a cat!

Had a suprise today... it seems willow has cracked the code for opening the cat flap, looks too much like hard work, maybe if i follow her close behind i can sneak through without the effort ::grins::
Personally i thought it was a window but it seems not lol the humans seem to have control over it usually it only opens one way... its rather amusing watchin jelly attempting to head butt it open after i seen the human lady lock it lol

Speakin of windows willow fell off the window sill again ..backwards! darn that cats dosey, she makes it almost embarrissing... no..yes.. it is embarrissing to be a cat ::rolls eyes:: its bad enuff that she cant sleep on the puter without slidin off once shes asleep ::sigh:: younguns they jus have no grace

...Ohh an now they have decided i need dry shampooing everyday! TUT am not impressed.. no i am not! Jus cos i look a bit tufty... i mean its all the rage... i seen lots of humans wearin mohicans... i look a bit like David Beckham i think. mind you its a bit sore now :o/ think i will let em shampoo me but i aint gonna look happy bout it ::grins::

We are now back on whiskers wet food.. but only in the morning... i dont think its making much difference but the humans feel less guilty, they are useful but not too bright ::laughs::

I have been continuing my surveillance the chinchilla cage and have decided there is indeed no flaw in the design... will coninue to check daily. I have found a good spot too ...being on the cage makes it much easier ::crafty grin:: and the humans worry about me being left alone ::manic take over the world style laughter:: bless.

My humans are both packing bags so suspect they are both out tommorrow leaving me incharge ...i hope they dont forget to feed us?? ::panick:: hmmm... ::makes note to self to make extra noise in the morning::

ahh well ::stretches.. another day another saucer of milk ::toddles off::

Today is the day i begin my first Cat journal and i plan to skillfully walk across the keys of my human companions computer keyboard as often as i can... when shes not looking that is ::grin:: dont want her sellin me to the circus now do i? lol

Today has been day number six of Willow's, the youngest cat in our household, upset tummy. No doubt cos of her habit of trying to eat innaminate objects now we all have to suffer the torment of dry cat food ::pulls face:: mind you my human lady has sneaked me a little special tinned catfood of the more upmarket variety, but i have promised to keep that quiet... tho its not my fault if the others could smell it on my breath is it now? ::wicked grin::

I think Wills will be off to the vet tonight ::shudders:: shes got a good record for drawing their blood on that visit! hehe I hope they dont drag me along this time.. i never seem to have a moments peice without being jabbed left right and centre at that place, i call it the little vetshop of horrors. Weird tho... i always feel kinda better after goin.. must be the fresh air.

The lady has a new brush for me its like a grooming mitt and some awful stuff she calls dry shampoo ::pulls another lemon face:: it smells disgustin but i have to admitt the matted hair on my back is less ichy and seems easier to brush... can never decide if i like her brushing me :o/ think its kinda a pleasure pain thing ;o) she says its important now tho. i do look pretty scruffy, guess its the HIV affecting my coat :o(

Ew!! thats Willow in the litter tray agian... yuk! i wonder how long i can hold off going? theres not enough litter in the world to make me go in that tray after her today! lol hmmm... maybe some milk will help me forget ::grins and trundles of to find a saucer of milk::
