POOKIE PLAYS DOG

CATS ON TUESDAY

First of all we have to welcome our new member Lehanne. From today on, every Tuesday she will do a Cat cartoon for CATS ON TUESDAY ! So today she has done the first one for us and you can see the funny cartoon on her blog. I think she is very gifted and I thank her very much !

Since Pookie was a kitten, I noticed that when I had a alu foil in my hand (from my cigarettes for example, and yes I know smoking is bad) she could be asleep somewhere but suddenly showed up like a flash and sat in front of me with big eyes waiting that I made a very small foil ball , the smaller the better, and then threw it for her somewhere in the room. Then she got crazy and ran and jumped behind the little ball, using her paws and played football (soccer) or basket or whatever. Now you would say all cats do this and that's true. But the special thing with Pookie is, that when she has catched her little ball, she picks it up in her mouth and brings it back to you ! Just like dogs would do. Then she lays the ball on or besides my feet and looks at me, waggling wildly with her tail, asking me to pick it up and throw again and that she could do for hours !

I throw, she brings back, I through she brings back (and tomorrow I could still write the same phrase).

Since at least 3 years, Pookie hasn't used the cat house anymore. Nobody uses it, they sleep besides or just before but never in, except this week.

I discovered Pookie in the house. At first I didn't see her but then I took this picture to keep it for eternity, it's such a rar event.

I had some chocolate in my hand wrapped in alu foil and she heard the noise when I took the foil from the chocolate.


She came out, looked around. (Eyes should be wide open)





and run over to me. Of course this you can't see because I had to take my camera and first put the chocolate away.








Then she looked at me with wild huge tiger eyes, just like on the picture. (I ask you to use your phantasy, because the poor thing was blinded by the flash) !















She jumped on the little ball felt on her bottom turned around and put it in her mouth.

And again I threw it and it landed behind the chair, she brought it back put it down to my feet and as I threw it again, she kicked it under the sofa.

Now to find it was another story.

finally she gave up and returned to her cat house.




But not inside of course, that was an exception, now she sleeps again outside.

Conclusion, as the living room is cleaned once a week (don't forget Mr. Gattino doesn't make any crumps and is quite clean for a man) we can collect about 10 - 20 foil balls in all corners and under the furniture. If I were Mrs. Gates I would threw $ bills !

That's how I spend my evenings.

And Sir Arthur watches the show and after a while falls asleep.

This is the sleeping position of a discrete, distinguished cat.
