Bah Humbug

What's the big deal with Christmas? I see some lights are up that come on at night. They're ok. It's  those flickering ones that drive me mad. 

Here I am being helpful with the Christmas decor. Yes! A bag!



Nope, no big star in there. 


Can I fit inside? Nope. One strike.
 
Can I eat it? Nope. Two strikes.

Can I push it around? Nope. Three strikes. Useless.

The heck?? I'm going to the Cattery while you guys go away to party?!&$*%

So what do I think of Christmas?
Bah Humbug!

Ninja Cat

I am a Ninja. I skulk and wait in utmost patience. I am covert. Not easy with a bell around my neck (arrrrgh!)!!. T'was a compromise I could not claw my way out of. This proud Ninja had to submit to be let outdoors. Unsupervised. Hhhhoookay. Nevertheless I am undeterred. I move with supreme stealth. The bell makes nary a noise.

I wait quietly, I am inconspicuous. I am a Ninja.

I love high places, like trees. Something about them I cannot resist. The danger, the risk excites me. Also, there is a lot of action going on up there. Noisy chirping birds. My favourite skinks. Ah! I see one now...

Who needs a ladder when you've got claws?

The air is different up here.

And the view! Awesome. I can see more targets bwahahahaha!

I blend in well. You can't see me but I see you.

My cover is blown. Darn this bell.

The Cattery

My first ever trip away from home with no family around for days was at a cattery called Merecats. For some bizarre reason, someone was visiting and he really hated cats! I know I am an acquired taste, but hate?? What a monster. Now why I had to go away from my own home??!!! I may never understand. Humans are weird.

I don't have a good feeling about this. Last time I was in one of these was a trip to the vet. Traumatic.

Julie, the kind cat lady @Merecats, showed me my room. There's a catdoor! Yippee!



I had a moment of panicked confusion.


What's with the screen walls??!! What is this place? What's going on?


But curiousity outweighed my panic. Hmm, let me see how I can break out.


I do like all these bridges and hiding places.

My curiosity got the better of me. So much to see, so much to do woohoo!

Oooh nice comfy bed. You can go now Mum. Why are you crying?

The Roo and I

There is only so much I can do indoors. I don't mind the repetitive games they play with me. But I so long to explore the vast world outside these walls. I think I was meant to be an outside cat. I know it in my soul.

This is my favourite perch. I can watch the world go by from here. So much action.


Then early one foggy morning I saw this. What the heck is that??!!


I followed it from window to window, I was getting curiouser and curiouser.


Suddenly it eyeballed me!! Gulp. It's much larger than me. Umm, I think I'm an indoor cat after all.


I'll go and read some books.


The elephant again? Boring. I think I'll take a catnap instead.

Indoor Cat

I was told in my kittenhood that I was an indoor cat. 

I peek under the door to see if anyone will open it for me. I have learned to open it myself! So call me Houdini.

I cannot resist any hanging thing anywhere. 

                                                        or getting into bags, any bag!

I am compelled to test this back scratcher, if I can only reachhhh

Closets, my  favourite. So much to explore!

             I like to leap and lurch without making a noise! No bell collar for me thank you.

Ahh so many toys so little time...zzzzzz

Balls, just love'm!

My Kittenhood

I was rescued from under a car parked in a Melbourne shopping mall. My baby eyes were still shut. When I opened them I knew instinctively Miguel was a keeper. He named me Rammstein, after his then favourite German industrial band. Strong name. Strong cat. So there.

Barely a couple months old, @Miguel took me to visit his family. It was love at first sight for all xxo

Miguel are you awake yet? I want to play!!

Miguel took me outdoors I've never seen such s-p-a-c-e!! My scaredy kitty look!



What was that noise?? Chirp chirp tweet tweet


Get me outta herrrrrrrreeeeeeeee (notice all my little hairs on end!!)

Ahhhh, safe in familiar surroundings. Purrrrrrr
