There's no accounting for pussies. A few days ago I started getting two new visitors through the window, coming in, often together, to polish off any scraps the others have left, but they scarper as soon as they see me. I've called one Dudo, after one of Mitch's cats (of 'Mitchell is Moving' in Espana) and the other one, Sooty, whose colour you can guess. After trying in vain to get my own gang to use the litter tray left in the kitchen, every morning now I'm finding a 'present' left in there for me, a present of a more 'solid' type. Only hope that they aren't marking out their territory preparatory to trying to move in. Having a total of SIX to care for would not only sink me it'd definitely get me evicted..(Dammit - Dudo's there right now looking at me through the closed window!)
OMB, you are becoming quite the "cat lady" of the neighborhood! they all know that raybeard loves pussy (word gets passed around).
it reminds me of when I fill the bird feeder; the next thing I know there are 20 birds gobbling down the seed. how they spread the word so fast I'll never know!
have a nice weekend with your pussies, dear. can you get a pix of the newcomers?
That's an idea, A.M.! I'd have to wait until they get bolder so I can get closer to them - and, in their typical feline way, that is what they're slowly doing. On the other hand once they know that I'm trustworthy they're going to start taking liberties with my good-naturedness - and the next thing is that they'll be joining me to sleep in my bed at night. Oh, problems, problems!
I'm not only an unashamed pussy-lover, A.M. (as you've known for some time), I'm an all-inclusive animal-lover. Fair to say that pussies are at the pinnacle, though doggies are only a nose behind (if you know what I mean). I'd gladly welcome Dudo and Sooty into the fold if only it weren't increasing the delicate situation with my landlord (NO pets at all allowed!) - but I simply can't afford to feed any more. As it is my present four cost me twice as much for their food than I spend on food for myself. But D & S do serve to clean out the food trays - every scrap of food left now vanishes - and in return or my generosity I found the usual 'present' left for me again this morning.
Our new kitty Mercy likes this. She says, "meow, meow-wow, meow." Translated that means, "You go girl!"
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
HELLZ YEAH! you and your family have a nice weekend! :)
DeleteYou have a nice weekend too!
Deletewhat are your plans?
DeleteI tried posting something earlier, and I think it went into the bit-bucket. Here's take two.
DeleteDaughter has a horse show tomorrow, her very first. This should be fun.
We're going to stay with my in-laws Sunday night, and see a bunch of family. Our respective parents and siblings are in the same town.
cool! good luck to your daughter!
DeleteThat's the standard issue statement around our house.
ReplyDeletebwhahahahahaha! have a nice weekend!
