Fortnight
50
Sunday
Mum and dad went out for most of today so I didn't do
much. When they came back in the evening we played with
the spider for a few hours.
Monday
An
odd day today. I know it's Monday but dad didn't go to
work and mum had loads of presents in nice wrapping paper,
which I spent ages playing in. I love playing in wrapping
paper. I think it must have been her birthday as dad didn't
get any presents. I spent the whole day playing in boxes
and wrapping paper, what a cool day.
Tuesday
Dad was off again today and they played on the playstation
most of the day. That was cool though as when mum isn't
playing on the playstation she plays with me.
Friday
Mum came home this afternoon smelling of the reiki lady,
and she didn't take me. How cruel is that? I always go
with mum to see her, I wonder why she didn't take me today…
Saturday
Spent the day sleeping on mum and dads bed until a strange
person arrived at our house this afternoon. He put his
bags on the guest bed and then watched TV with mum and
dad for a while. Everytime I went near the guest he started
to sneeze, so I think he may be allergic to cats. I made
sure that I sat really close to him all afternoon… cats
love sitting by or near people that are allergic..we can
tell these things and make their life a misery!
They all went out early evening and shortly after midnight
16 strange people descended on our house. It was very
loud and smoky and I hid upstairs for a while until I
plucked up enough courage to stick my head through the
banister to see what was happening. There were some cat
lovers there who started to play with me so I wasn't so
scared then. As a few people left I summoned all my courage
and came downstairs to investigate. I played with the
4 cat lovers for a few hours but then the humans started
playing with rubber bands and I legged it in case they
pinged me with a large elastic band. They had some big
rubber bands and put 5 together, put one side at the back
of their heads and pulled them out until the bands were
highly stretched and then let them snap back onto their
foreheads. Everybody in the room had red marks across
their forehead. Humans have strange ideas of fun!
When
the last but 3 people left for their taxi I managed to
escape into the garden. A few people tried to catch me,
but I can easily evade a drunken human! I spent my first
night outside in over a year. It was wonderful.
Sunday
When mum came down this morning she found me curled up,
asleep outside the French doors. I was nearly in my bedroom,
it also gets full sun in a morning so I was nice and warm.
She let me in and gave me a nice breakfast whilst she
cleared up. Everybody else was still in bed so we had
a nice play in the lounge all by ourselves. Then our guest
came down and I made sure I sat on his knee until he started
sneezing again…. Then I jumped off with my work done and
went for a sleep on my cushion. It's hard work being outside
all night.
Early afternoon our guest went, and more people came to
our house to watch the first Formula 1 Grand Prix of the
season. I hate watching the F1 race as it's really loud
and noisy and every now and then mum, dad and whoever
is here watching the race start to shout at the TV… they
always take me by surprise with the shouting and make
me jump. But then I look stupid in front of guests so
I always hide when they watch the racing!
Monday
What a terrible day for a cat.
A
builder came to do some work in our porch today. He was
pulling out a built in seat and building a nice cupboard
(maybe a new hidey place for me) in it's place. When he
pulled out the seat there was a nail through a water pipe
and it was pulled out.. the porch started to get very
wet. Mum, dad and the builder all tried to turn off the
water but for some reason they couldn't and the porch
and kitchen were getting wetter. I hate getting wet paws.
The front door was open all day so I went into the garden
to watch the goings on from there as it was drier. An
emergency plumber was called and it was all sorted in
time, but the carpet remained wet for hours… the main
walkway into the house as well.. shall have to find a
new way in so I don't get wet paws!
Dad
went away today so from lunchtime today it's just me and
mum. It's weird when dad isn't here. For the first day
or so I go looking for him around the house each night,
but I can never find him. I heard his voice on the phone
tonight and ran up to say hello, but I don't think that
he heard me.
Wednesday
Joy!!! In the last diary I mentioned that mum had bought
me a load of new toys… well guess what came today? Yep
- you guessed it, I got my toy delivery today. My favourite
at the minute is the Kitty Kaster. It's a plastic hand
held bit with a plastic mouse at the end of an 8 foot
piece of string. You (your human) throws the mouse by
holding a button down on the hand bit and the mouse shoots
out across the room. Everybody knows that cats play by
ignoring their toys for a while and then pouncing, well
this is excellent as when you press the button it retracts
the mouse a bit.. so just as I pounce on it, mum moves
it away. I have spent ages playing with this today, hope
the batteries don't run out or I will lose my favourite
toy! This has kept mum and I occupied whilst dad is away.
Kitty
Kasters can be bought from Mad
About Cats, please quote reference Siliconhell.
Thursday
Yippee! Dad came home early afternoon and I got loads
of cuddles. He was quite taken with my Kitty Kaster and
we played for ages. It's such a good place for a cat to
live. You get nice food, both mum and dad play with me
and I seem to get new toys very frequently… any homeless
kitties out there should find their way to our house…
I'll look after you!
