IBKFergus grows...
IBKFergus may be growing larger, but she certainly isn't growing *up*.
Nothing is safe from her. He favourite hobby seems to be knocking breakable things off surfaces I thought were cat-proofed (ha!), playing "herd of stampeding elephants through the Serengeti" in the dead of night, and biting my toes when I'm sound asleep. She tries to torment Shmogg alot too. Shmogg boxes her ears on an exceptionally regular basis but she's either remarkably stupid or remarkably persistant, because even though she is soundly defeated in mere seconds (she being just playful and about 2kg and Shmogg being mean, dirty and about 6kg) every single time, she is back for more punishment in no time flat. She doesn't stay still long enough to be petted, so I still don't know her favourite scritching spots. The only time she'll deign to be touched is when she's leapt from the floor straight into my cleavage (I'm sure Joel wishes he had this ability) and then she'll touch noses with me and purr like a maniac before dashing off on super urgent hoolikitten business again. I'm starting to suspect she's actually a squirrel. She doesn't meow, she just chirrups and chitters. And she chirrups and chirps alot. Whatever it is, she has to climb to the top of it and perch there. Including me. Even if I'm straight out the shower and don't have any clothes on. Having an insane kitty climbing your wet white and wobbling form is an experience to be reckoned with. My massage therapist was quite worried about the state of my back, and started making humourous comments regarding BDSM & whips. I had to explain that it was merely an insane hoolikitten imitating a squirrel and mistaking me for her tree. I'm glad my massage therapist has cats too, but I'm sure the guy inthe next cubicle thought the conversation *very* interesting! I daren't go to a hairdresser, though, because the small pinpricks in my scalp wold just be too hard to explain. I don't thinkanyone would understand that a sane person would willingly wear a cat hat, a *live* cat hat that attached itself to said head with 16 incredibly sharp "hat pins". WE still have t lock IBKFergus out of Cary's room at tnight, otherwise those two would spend all night torturing each other. For a while I tried to keep them seperate, because IBKFergus sctaches Cary, and Cary pulls IBKFergus' tail, ears, fur or whatever else he can grab. i used to think it couldn't possibly be any fun for *either* of them when they played together, but they are obviously bonded far more tightly to each other than anyone would care to think. Cary has learnt (the hard way) that he can't fly off the lounge, that he shouldn't put his fingers in closing drawers and that Shmogg shold be well avoided (and Shmogg has learnt the same about Cary) but IBKFergus and Cary can spend hours a day either tormenting or amusing and entertaining each other, or possibly a bit of both at the same time. Its quite clear that CAry is IBKFergus' hoomin, and IBKFergus is Cary's willing accomplice in anything that looks like Trouble. I fear for when they get older and more cunning.... Yowie |

She doesn't meow, she
just chirrups and chitters. And she chirrups and chirps alot. Redunzel is exactly the same. I;ve heard a lot of cat noises over the years Isis (RB) being the most talkative cat ever (she would even talk to herself) and I have never heard a cat actually say "Meow"- has anyone else?

"SuzQ" wrote in message lkaboutpets.com... The only way I'll eat squid is with marinara dipping sauce. Suz&Spicey On our recent vacation, I had a seafood plate with the most scrumptious fried squid. It was fried into long crisp sticks. Youngest grandson "does not like fish or seafood" I handed him one and he ate it. He then proceeded to finish the rest of the ones on my plate. Discussion later between me, DH, and his older brother "I'm not going to tell him, are you going to tell him?" He still doesn't know. Only that it was calamari and he doesn't know what that is. Jo |
