bad and wicked than a human who picks you up, against your will, and carries you out of the kitchen when the poached chicken has just come out of the oven ?

Miaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!

That is pretty low but I must say what I did to Oscar this morning is awful too! He pounced on my ankles as I was carrying a pile of washing up the stairs. I was so startled that I accidentally dropped the whole pile on his head........Sorry Oscar!

Poor Oscar, or Flathead as he might be known now if the washing was in a basket at the time ?

What a terrible cruel pair of cat parents you are.

I couldn't be like it myself.

Sorry Magic when I shut the door on you the other day and nearly cut you in half because you ran through the door as I was closing it and I didn't see you.

I had make some turkey legs last night, and threw the bones in the garbage can, that locks on both sides. My Two Accomplices were so upset that they did not partake of that delectable turkey meal, that they both knocked over the can, to show ME..lol...but, too bad for them, the top did not come off...lol....But they certainly gave it a good try...

So, my two rascals sympathize with poor Oscar.....

Gee .... I have an angel! Sort of. Almost.

Jacqueline - that is determination.

It certainly is, Cranberry....They make me laugh (and curse...lol...) EVERY day!

Disgraceful, cats should always have first dibs

Hahaha...ya, what kind of terrible kitty parents are we anyway???

I had to go out this morning to put gas in the car but Grace refused to come in the house. I picked her up which she absolutely hates and put her in the house. She turned around and ran right back out on the patio. I chased her around a while but it is such a beautiful morning in the low 70s with a nice breeze and birds singing. So I left her out there and closed the house up and ran my errand. When I cam home, she didn't seem to care and is still out there having a ball.

Found my two playing with a mouse in the conservatory the other night. I locked the cat flap, took it off them and put it outside again.

They were not happy with me at all. They both sat staring at me as if I was the worst human cat parent in the world. But I couldn't bear watching them torment the little mouse!

I've had to separate a cat and rodent before - Huffy* was playing vole tennis - laying on his side, vole in his front paws, he'd flick them up and then smack ( SQUEAK! ) the vole so that it flew away and he could chase it again.

I was the the very worst human, stopping him from climbing out of my arms to go and finish playing with it.



*my mum's rescue cat and a serial killer who liked getting his ears tickled.

That's exactly what Hendrix was doing to the poor mouse! I'm surprised Jagger allowed it as it was his catch. But I managed to wrap the mouse in a cloth and take him out to a log pile to scurry off. I doubt it survived but at least it could die in peace without being thrown up the air and bashed back down again.

Hendrix has a powerful tennis serve!
