Buster's precious
Buster has a new toy, a plastic lid ring, which basically has the same
function as a milk jug ring, but being from a jar of cat treats, is larger. When I was opened the jar, I twisted it a bit so that it will "sit up" when placed on the floor, instead of it laying flat. I intended it to amuse the kitties for a few minutes, but I didn't think that Buster would become so taken with it. For the past week, Buster's been keeping me up at night playing hockey with it. He also carries it wherever he goes, and sometimes cries and whines at it for no apparent reason. Usually he'll just sleep cuddled up next to it, so meatloaf in front of it, staring at the ring as though communing with it. This isn't the first plastic ring of this type I've tossed the cats, but according to Buster, this one's special. |

"Buster's" could be a possesive (which is how I read it at first). This could earn him the nickname "Gollum". Or it could be a contraction for "Buster is." And he is!

If it gets all chewed up, I'm going to toss it into the fires of Mount Doom. That, or the trash. It's actually more likely that he'll whap it under a bookshelf or something and come whining "Lost, my precious is lost!" |

Hehe. He was hiding in plain sight with it before, meatloafing his stripey self in the slitted sunlight filtering through the blinds, making me almost step on him. |
