Fortnight
25
Tuesday
I have been quite quiet this week. The weather has been
really nice and warm outside and I really want to go outside.
I sit by the windows and miaow at mum when she comes past
but she won't let me outside. I spent 3 hours sat by the
window today but with no luck. She keeps cuddling me but
does she not understand that I don't want cuddles - I
want to go outside!!!!
Thursday
Dad
has been away again this week so it has just been me and
mum. She has been so quiet.. reading all the time so I
have been quite bored. She got a book called the Cat Whisperer
that she thinks will teach her to talk to me better… it
seems to be working. She has learnt the cat greeting and
purr points to make me happy with cuddles… so it is not
all bad.. had a lovely 2 hour cuddle this evening. This
purr point book must be really good because she has even
found the obscure points that make me purr even louder
than normal!!!
Friday
I
am so upset. I think that Molly has a new boyfriend. She
keeps coming into the the back garden and running to the
french windows to say hello. Today she was in the garden
with the dominant Tom Cat in our street. They spent ages
playing in front of the windows where I look out from.
Then they got really friendly (must be the spring feeling
in the air!) and he got on top of her... right in front
of my nose.. how cruel is he? Mum went outside and pulled
him off but he got right back on. I guess that Molly has
found herself a new playmate and boyfriend now I can't
go out and play with her.
Sunday
Spent
the day sleeping on the windowsill today. Nick bought
Mum a new plant yesterday and she put it on the windowsill.
I have started to drink the water out of the saucer for
it. I have water in my dish but this is better when it
is mixed with soil. I also pushed the whole thing off
the windowsill, plant, pot, water and all. They were not
too happy when they saw dirty water and soil all over
the light purple settee though! They cleaned it up, pulling
out the settee and cleaning the back and behind it.. I
waited until everything was back in place and then did
it again. It wasn't as effective as there was no water
in the pot but it was still funny to watch them clean
it up again. An hour later I did it again but they weren't
so happy about cleaning it up this time!!! It made me
smile anyway!
Tuesday
Mum spent ages in the garden today pulling plants and
weeds out… yes - you guessed it she is not a wonderful
gardener! I watched her from the window as I still can't
persuade her to open the door for me. As the weather is
nice the small windows in the house are now open. I got
caught today. I thought I could get outside by jumping
out of the little window (top opening window of a big
unit) in the bedroom. The bedroom is on the first floor
of the house so there is a big drop outside. Mum was on
the phone in the bedroom and she must have been watching
me because she grabbed hold of my back paws just as I
was half way out of the window.. foiled again and I
STILL didn't get to go outside.. I will try again
when she is not watching!
Thursday
Dad
was happy today as it is Easter Weekend and he has 4 days
off from work. They watched TV and played with me tonight
and it was nice. I was playing with the Cat Charmer (long
piece of coloured fleece that I will chase forever) -
I was so tired by bedtime!
Friday
Good
Friday
Mum and dad spent the day gardening today and I watched
- AGAIN. They cut all the grass and tidied
up and then sat in the sun - lucky people. I was dying
to get outside and when they were sat on the patio in
the back I stood on my back legs running on the inside
on the window and then jumped up to reach the handle.
I reached the handle but it was locked so I could not
open the door (I have learnt to open doors inside the
house but outside doors are heavier). I miaowed so loudly
that I KNEW that they could hear me. They looked
sad when they turned to look at me. Mum came in and gave
me a cuddle then and I got some more new cat litter in
my tray. It is even better to throw across the room than
the other type. I don't think they are too happy with
it as I make such a mess with it all!
Saturday
Molly
and that Tom were back in our garden again today. They
were playing chase along the fences around the garden.
I don't like her anymore, she is making me so jealous...
and I HATE the Tom because he was always
the one biting me and I think it was him who made me ill.
He is a stray cat that lives in the street and I wish
he would move on to somewhere else... especially now he
has my girlfriend!
Mum
and dad had visitors tonight and I hid in the bedroom
until everybody had gone. I don't like strange people
in my house. It was a quiet day as I slept in the laundry
basket so I couldn't see the sun outside.
Sunday
Easter
Sunday
Dad watched the Grand prix this afternoon and again there
were loads of people in our house and they didn't leave
until about 11 at night. I hid upstairs until I was hungry
and then ran so quickly through the front room so that
they wouldn't see me and I got my dinner. When everyone
had gone mum played "Fetch" with me up and down the stairs
until I fell asleep.
