Plan B



Oh my whiskers and paws ... that cunning plan with the two-year old went completely pear-shaped. So ... maybe ... if I just lie here ... all flat like and pretending to be a door mat ... I'll catch them off guard. I'll be through the door before they know it. Finally the house .... all mine. Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha.

Our mysterious feline guest is still here.

  4. I'm going for the cat too!

    I used to have a cat come and visit me when I lived in a unit in the city. I loved him! He'd follow me home, hang out, I'd feed him some smoked salmon. He'd get cranky when I was on the phone and start pouncing on me, and then we'd play and he'd go home. Perfect! I still miss him!

  6. I had a phantom 'pet' ginger cat when I lived at Fyfe street!
    Loads of evidence that he existed -including large amounts of ginger fur moulted over the director's chair on the porch every morning - and glimpses of ginger ears behind rose bushes and amongst the iris. ... but he didn't want to stay and play when I was around. Cats can be sooooo finicky! At least I didn't have to remember to feed my cat.....
    I hope your cat makes a better attachment!

  10. They say that cats choose their owners. We accquired our cat "StevieB" from people who lived downstairs from us.
    that first post about the cat made me laugh soo much.
