Fortnight

Saturday
You
know on my Pet Gallery
there is a cat drinking out of the toilet, well I decided
to try it today. When I was younger I remember that I
fell in, but I was more careful today. I didn't realise
though that you are not supposed to put your front paws
in as well. I got my paws wet so I went downstairs where
mum and dad were sitting. I jumped on dad's knee and walked
around to dry my paws off! He didn't realise why I was
wet until he went upstairs and saw my paw marks on the
seat. He was not too chuffed with me…
Sunday
The bathroom is my new favourite room. You can sleep in
the sink and the bath and they are both nice and comfortable.
I was asleep in the bath this morning and mum turned the
shower on without opening the curtain… she didn't see
me until I dashed out screaming. It was cold and I don't
like water that much.
Talking of water, next door have a new hose pipe so I
can no longer play one of my favourite games, chase the
jets from the leaks…. Every evening when they watered
their garden I used to play, but now I can't…..I do like
sitting in the wet bushes in our garden though, as it
is quite refreshing and cooling.
Tuesday
Dad is teaching me a new trick. It's called "Kiss the
Finger". He says it and I rub my nose on his finger and
get a cuddle. Can't quite see the point, but it's a guaranteed
cuddle, so it can't be that bad… I'm getting good at it
but it's not as nice as shredding paper. I also like playing
with my tail. If I am lying down and mum puts my tail
near my face I start biting it…. For some reason I think
it's something else, and it's not until I bite it, and
feel the pain that I realise it's part of me… I should
learn these things but I'm only a baby.
Thursday
I am spoilt for choice…. So many toys, so little time…
I now have fishy, mousie, and my balls. I have to play
with everything and sometimes I can't decide which is
fist. I take them all into the front room and lay them
out and lie down looking at them, trying to decide which
to play with first. Fishy is not happy with me as I play
with the mice and balls most. I keep losing them in the
house though and mum has to find them all for me. When
I can't find them, then I play with fishy.
Sunday
I am now learning another trick… "Fetch". Mum throws the
ball and I get it, play with it and then bring it back.
I even drop it in her hand most of the time. I love playing
up and down the stairs…. It's such fun… I chase it upstairs
and then play with it all the way down… I spend hours
doing this most days…. It's good exercise and I always
get tired playing, I have a little nap and then do it
all again!
Monday
I
climbed up the big tree today. Not the tree I got up before,
but one behind the neighbours house. I was peeking out
from behind the leaves at the top, and I nearly got a
wood pigeon but it saw me first. I went exploring in the
tree for ages and then I scrabbled down a few levels and
then jumped out. I was so proud of myself!
Tuesday
Mum and dad are sleeping in the back room again. Not sure
why… the bedroom is empty again. Do they like moving rooms?
Are they like cats and like sleeping in different places?
It's hard for a cat to keep up with all this moving around.
Now they are sleeping in one of my favourite spots and
I am no longer allowed on the spare bed….humph! I am sleeping
on the top step now, I may trip them up soon so I can
go back to the spare bed!
Wednesday
Oh I see, the bedroom is being decorated. There are strange
people in the house pulling all the wallpaper off and
putting new up. Ban and I left our mark by leaving some
of our hair on the wet paint of the door…. Famous
forever! No-one realised until it was dry so it will always
be there! Hee! Hee!
Friday
I have found a new way to let them know I want to come
inside. I stand on my back legs and with my front paws
I run on the French doors. I know it looks cute, they
watch me for a while and then let me in. It works EVERY
time… it is a much better way than the miaow, I realised
the other day that if I miaow when the door is shut they
can't hear me. That must be why it doesn't work that well!
