toilet paper 2

I had to go out and get a hair cut and some groceries. Arriving back I
notice the guest bath door is mostly closed. Since the cats seem to
treat any closed door as an insult and attempt to hide the good stuff
from them I keep all the doors open. There was Bruiser panting on the
floor with half a roll of toilet paper on the floor and a good portion of
it clamped between his paws grinning his I'm tired because I had so much
fun grin between pants. He was caught white handed. Bits of it he had
shredded were stuck in his tail as well. He had dragged a good length of
it behind the door probably at a run and no doubt impacted on the back of
the door closing it. He was outraged when I picked it up and tried to
get it back. The roll was facing so it should have rolled up. I don't
know how he did it.


Any pictures in the offing of this -- sounds really cute!

Taking a picture of him was the last thought on my mind at the time.

I've seen a gadget called a "foiler" in catalogs - it's designed to
prevent feline attentions while allowing humans to use the tissue for
its intended purpose. Anyone know whether it works?

Hiliarious! I'm grateful Persia takes no notice of things like the toilet
paper. She does like Q-tips and I have to keep them away from her.

LOL! There are so many chameleons with death wishes sneaking into the place
(no doubt seeking relief from the awful tropical heat outside) these "dog
days"of August that all 3 of the beloveds here have a never-ending source of
amusement at their paw-tips 24/7! They have no need to seek inanimate prey
such as t.p. or q-tips......no fun there....but the only complaint I have is
that once in awhile the clumsy BT Rowdy knocks over a floor lamp (last
night) or pulls a drape down (today) -he *does* weigh 19# - in his
one-eye-sighted frenzy to capture his prize! But who can deny him his fun?
Not us.

That's true....Geeps does much prefer moths to Q-tips, I must admit! He's
actually quite the hunter, but, much as I appreciate the fact that he was
honoring me with his loving tributes, I got a bit weary of receiving his
dead and dying presents on almost a daily basis, so he has a little
anti-hunting collar now. :)

LOL, bless 'im! I know what you mean, though....Greebo was once playing
with a disembowled sparrow in the bathroom, and I didn't have the heart to
take it off him for a few minutes, because he was having so much fun with
it. But as it was the middle of the night, and I was going back to bed, I
didn't want to leave it too long, as I had unpleasant visions of not seeing
where he'd left it and stepping in dead sparrow when I got up that I did
*not* want to become a reality!
