A FEW CAT RULES



Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

It is impossible to make my bed in the morning ! As soon as I get out, the little group (except Kim the maverick) gets in and if I only try they look at me with reproachful eyes. So I have to wait until they finish their second morning siesta. I tell you I really am a poor victim. On the other hand it's practical too, I don't have to open my bed in the evening either.

These are a few cat rules, which they respect :


Whenever you miss the sandbox, cover it up.
Dragging a sock over it helps. (or underpants)


If you can't get your way, lay across the keyboard till you do.



When you are hungry, meow loudly so they feed you just to shut you up.


Always find a good patch of sun to nap in.


Nap often to keep you in shape


When in trouble, just purr and look cute.

SOMETHING ABOUT POOKIE






Pookie is a very tender cat. She askes for loving care the whole day long. Fortunately she is spayed, otherwise I would have 3 times a year a lot of kittens !

She would be like this pregnant cat meeting a friend who, when she saw her exclaimed "what !! you are again pregnant ? Who is the father ? and the little cat with a shy glance answered "I don't know I had my head in the garbadge can !"

Therefore I asked Mr. Google again to be sure I wasn't wrong and as you can see I was right !






You Are Seductive Flirt


Smoldering hot, you don't really flirt. You seduce.
For you, flirting is just foreplay.
You don't flirt unless it's going somewhere.
You have one goal in mind when you flirt... And you usually get it!


See that explains it all !

HAPPY VALENTINE

Kim, Arthur, Lisa and Pookie had to pose for Valentine's day. They probably thought that their companion has become more crazy than usual, because they never heard about this day.

And what do cats when they doubt ? They sleep and let me put stuff around them.

Only Pookie, used to photo shot sessions made an effort. You can see her "I do it only for you" face.

Meeting in the kitchen. Only Kim doesn't assist, she sits outside as usual and Lisa of course has to eat something before the meeting starts !






I am not used to Valentine's day either. It is only celebrated between couples (when it is celebrated) and when Mr. Gattino and I were freshly in love it didn't even exist !

But as I like to adopt nice uses from other countries I and my cats of course (want or not) join in the festivities and wish you all a

A CAT LIFE

CATS ON TUESDAY


This week I have to complain about ol' lady Lisa ! I don't know if she has spring feelings although spring is still far away, but she is restless ! At sometimes 3.30 am (!) she lays besides my head and switches her motor on and purrs so loud in my ear that of course I wake up. Then I have to get up immediately because My Lady wishes to eat.



She also moves from day to day to another nap place. Yesterday I found her as a decoration in the kitchen. I admit, she really looked very decorative.





Nobody is allowed to go to the toilet alone ! Not even guests. She just wants to check what we are doing. If you don't open the door she scratches until you open. Otherwise you have to hurry up to save the door.



Once inside and there is nothing special to see besides a human on the thrown, she wants to go outside of course.

It also happens when we have guests. I suddenly hear a cry for help coming from the toilet : "The cat, the cat, can you move the cat "!

Lisa doesn't understand such a behavior and offended walks away tail up ! She also has her proudness.



She also squats again Mr. Gattino's desk and especially the computer.




It's almost so nice to climb in there then outside on natural stuff. Especially when it is cold and rainy.




She files the papers and she does it so well that nobody can find them anymore. It doesn't bother me when the papers are unpayed invoices. I can always say and with good conscience that they are lost.


When Lisa finally has finished to terrorize the whole household and chased around poor Pookie, she is happy about all her daily achievements and takes her well earned nap in the regular cat basket (for once, doesn't happen very often)





Meanwhile Arthur has found another occupation. He still doesn't go out and we are now proud owners of an inside cat.



But he doesn't want that others come in or go out either. Especially the neighbor cats who do it from time to time. Arthur too always ate from other dishes, because it tastes much better then stupid home food.

But now he really gets angry if he sees a face in the cat door which doesn't belong to his sisters. They are allowed in, but not out ! He behaves like a jalous muslim brother.

When I comfortably sit on my sofa and watch TV where a couple is just kissing, I suddenly hear screems sound through the whole house as if a serial killer is busy with cutting victims into pieces.

I get out of my sofa like a missile, run down the steps to see who is killed in our basement and find Arthur sitting on my car roof and looking at me with very astonished big yellow eyes.





And then because he is a very polite cat, makes a reference to me jumps down the car roof and walks me to the kitchen because these events had made him hungry.


I don't know who wrote this, but I am sure it doesn't fit on my cats !


Little cat, (not so little)


I hear your footsteps pit-pat (pit-pat ? I hear things falling down)


in the hallway the kiss of air, whisper-soft purr; (throwing up, yes and purring like a dove !)


I hear the echos of your purr; (1000 volts I hear)


and see your pouncing shadow everywhere.... (it's not a shadow it's the cat herself !)

KIM's TEST

You probably wonder why I rarely write about Kim. The problem is, there is nothing to write about her. She is the perfect invisible cat. Never plays, never scratches furniture, never meows, never fights. She only likes other cats and doesn't like humans at all, besides us, there she makes an exception. So we think that she is slightly retarded. But we love her anyway.



When Kim lies around like that, I have to be careful, sometimes I think she is a mop and just want to put her away with the brooms. Here you see something of her head and even an eye, but when she lies on a dark surface it becomes difficult.


Here she is well combed and is the "beauty"



So I also tried a test with her, just to know if she is normal or not ! And here are the results :





You Are 55% Normal


While some of your behavior is quite normal...
Other things you do are downright strange
You've got a little of your freak going on
But you mostly keep your weirdness to yourself









It looks like I am right !





The only movements Kim would do !
