Two Poofy Tails

Buster's the one here with the deployable tail. It normally looks like an ordinary ringed tabby tail, but it's more than an instrument - it's a system! He poofed his tail a while ago when Dot ran right at him during her zoomie rounds, and jumped over him at the last possible second. He had this "Omigod omigod" look on his face, and I had to tell him, "That's an exaggeration, honey. That does *not* count as a near-death experience." Right now, he's curled up as close to Dot as he can get. He occasionally gives her a little loving mitten touch, making Dot growl at him. |

Right now, he's curled up as close to Dot as he can get. He occasionally gives her a little loving mitten touch, making Dot growl at him. sounds like they are getting along pretty well now, if buster is allowed to curl up anywhere near dot. i'm so glad for you all. -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban.

Dante jumped up beside him, looked out, and his tail instantly poofed, too. I went to see of course, as Stinky made his very best "I'm a Mighty Jungle Cat and will Kick Your A$$" noises, although I knew what it was. It could only be a cat outside. People and dogs don't bother the Stink-- he's even pleasantly curious about those. A cat on his porch, though, and IT'S ON, BABY. :P Sitting outside, as expected, was a pretty, and very poofy herself longhaired girl. She was just naturally poofy though, due to long hair, not stress-relatedly poofy. She was *so* unstressed, in fact, that she jumped up on the outside of the window to get a better look at the boys. Cats-- in THERE!?!?!? WOW. Dante immediately got even poofier, and headed for the hills. Stinky made cougar noises at the girl, who said-- as most of the visitors to the porch do-- "Hey, dude. Chillax." She jumped back down to the porch, completely unconcerned, and walked off, waving her unstressed, fluffy tail. Once I startled Zak by accident and he puffed up his tail and I told him how cute he was and pretty and it happened a second time after which he learned to puff up his tail to impress me which was very strange. Every time I came home he puffed his tail for me. Then I would smooth it back down. He was not upset or stressed just wanted to be praised. Be careful what you say to your cats! lol. reminds me of nikki. she would go around poofing her tail just for the heck of it. not only that, she would impress us - me and frank - by poofing just parts of her tail. just a little poofed ball at the tip, or the tip and base but not the middle, or just the middle. she loved to confoozle us that way. Once they realize they are entertaining you there is no end to the nutty things they can do! |

And I'm relieved to find out that this was from 1996, which is well before my time, cat-newsgroup-wise. I joined RPCA in '99, and I don't remember Sissy or a fleur-de-lis pattern on a cat's nose. I was afraid that either my memory or my reading skills were seriously declining. Joyce -- To send email to this address, remove the triple-X from my user name. |

There are just so many funny things in it - "deployable" tails, near-death experiences, the image of one cat racing right at another and jumping over him at the last minute. LOL! This is a keeper.
