Grandma

I don't really know how to feel about my new Grandma. I met her before I think, a long long time ago but we didn't really spend too much time together then. Now however, we see each other A LOT!! Now don't get me wrong Grandma has her good points - she will often feed me if Mom is refusing to roll out of bed yet, and she gives me meat a fair bit too, but she also seems to have no fear of me which is quite worrying. She has no problem picking me up under her arm and carrying me around like a football and she is surprisingly strong for one her age. And she insists on me going out into the frozen wastelands daily! I mean it's cold out there, it's kinda dirty, and there's no food! Why on earth would I want to spend time out there away from the lovely warm house and the soft carpet that I can lie about on without getting mucky or itchy or scratchy? I like my life the way it is. Grandma wants my life to be different. I guess the battle of the wills is just beginning.

Day 10         Well I kinda got my butt kicked by Prissy today! I was just feeling so hungry and things had been going so well lately that I just couldn't help myself - I went to go eat some of her meat. And well it appears Prissy's bite may actually be worse than her bark coz she went completely psycho at me and tried to take a good bite out of my shoulder! She definitely got away with quite a bit of my fur, it was so shameful. Then everyone seemed way more concerned with how she was, than with how I was - so unfair! Like me trying to eat her food was the biggest crime in the world! Well if they didn't have me on these ridiculous rations every day there wouldn't be the need to try and get such extra snacks..........

The Bell

Day 4   Did I mention Mom has me wearing a bell? I've been trying to get out my cat cave a little more today - partly because it's kinda lonely and chilly in there, but mostly because I'm famished - but it's hard to get to Prissy's food in the kitchen without being noticed with this bell around my neck. If I creep really really slowly, it barely rings, but then it does take a whole lot longer to get places too! Still, I've made it to the food and got a bit of it a couple of times today which is quite the achievement I feel. And, not to be boastful here, but everyone but Prissy does seem to love me! I get lots of attention when I appear and lots of lovin' which suits me just fine! I like this place a lot and Grandma and Grandpa seem pretty okay, so as soon as Prissy gets over herself everything will be dandy.

The Cat Cave

Day 3   So I find myself spending most of my time in the Cat Cave. Occasionally I come out when asked to by the clicker for some treats or food, but mostly I just stay in my nice cave under the couch. Sometimes when I come out for edible delights I unfortunately get whisked away downstairs and held "prisoner" on Mom's lap for various amounts of time while that prissy effort looks on. And sometimes I do go for small wanders by myself, especially when the house is more quiet, but basically the cave is my home.
Night times are different of course. Then my bedroom door is shut and so there is no need to worry about Prissy at all. And of course Mom is also right in the room with me. So then I come out and chill and relax on my bed. It's smaller than my bed at Daddy's so I get kicked a little bit more in the night but still it is bliss!! I get to pass out completey and snore my little head off, upside down if I wish. Night times are my favorite right now!

This Blog Has Gone Feline

Yesterday was the longest day of my life! I'm sure it was longer than a regular day. And so much motion - when I finally got to be still I still felt like all 4 of my legs were still wobbling. I had my first bath too. It wasn't as bad as you might think - once the water was finally not scolding hot or freezing cold! And I did smell pretty bad!! What? You would too if you were locked in a small room without a bathroom for a long time! Eventually you just gotta go poop on the floor, and then try not to sleep in it - not easily done when everything keeps moving around and your ears hurt and all you want to do is sleep. And my fur did end up nice and soft and fluffy, once I'd put in a good fews hours with my tongue as well. I slept like a log last night! No motion, very peaceful and back with my Mom where I belong. There is this other cat here though who seems like a bit of a prissy princess type, and she didn't really give me the warmest of welcomes. I could take her though if I needed to, but I don't want any reason to have to leave, so for now I'll put fighting on the back burner and just stay out of her way. I've made myself a nice little "cat cave" under the couch in my room. It's a little chilly there but it will do for now. Like I said I'm back with Mom and that makes me so happy. I miss Daddy though - he seemed real sad when I last saw him. I think I won't see him again for a while. When Mom was sad like that it was a real long time before I saw her again and not a fun ride to get here. I hope Daddy will be okay without me and won't start sleeping with that smelly effort with the long fur. Anyway I'm kinda tired now and my paws are sore and Mom is shutting the door which means peaceful sleep time coz that other cat can't get in. Yey!!
