Well, they leave tomorrow–I’ll just play possum and pretend I don’t care.
But here is a lesson for mama today.
THEY are about to bug out for a visit to those little anthros who have FINALLY learned not to pull my tail (bonne chance under the bed, haha) and boy, are those little devils going to be sad when they find out I am NOT with mama and papa and they will NOT get to visit me and cuddle me and say, Loulou, Loulou, you are SOOOOO cute and all those overly cutesy-pootsy things they always say when I sidled onto the scene. Mama will learn that she feels the same way, too!
I’ve asked mama to take a pic of their little faces when they find out I am back in my garden, sunning, and rolling in kiwi leaves (did you know, by the way that the Japanese use kiwi for their kitties as a sort of nip substitute?). Mama was wondering why I loved the dried kiwi leaves so much and I told her I was getting a nip replacement, HAHA! Just kidding, but I am actually having a little trouble climbing the stairs (except when hungry and I hi-tail it like a comet to the kibble bowl). I sort of limp up the stairs, favouring my right paw and leg. Maybe arthritis. Are the cortisone shots for kitties? Must look into that upon mama’s return.
Meanwhile, I am set up with boxes of nice munchies and kibble (light, to keep me trim) and the KIND and GENEROUS Kitty Whisperer often gives me little tidbits from her POACHED FISH or MEAT–you hear that, mama? Hmm, wonder if she leaves her Magnum sticks around?
SO…I’ll be expecting lots of guests for the House Trashing but it won’t be for awhile because I am first going to enjoy just having time to myself to think about the MOL (meaning of life, remember?) and meditate on how spring and summer will pan out for me. Plus, I may not have the personality for trashing my house. I sort of love my house, you know?
Don’t worry–I’ll be posting my blogs come hell or high water about fun things happening here, just to make mama homesick!
Hope the limp is temporary. We’re getting Omega 3 (from sardine and anchovy oil) and Jan takes it too for her arthritis.
WOW, a great idea. And we are fom the land of sardines! Will look into that NOW. I limp up the stairs but RUN around the garden. Go figure.
Oh, LouLou – I hope your paw gets better. (Or are you doing a bit of acting before Mama and Papa leave ?) There are things for kitty arthritis similar to what your Mama gets for her knee, but I hope you won’t need them. Maybe you just tweaked a muscle racing to your kibble.
That first picture seems to indicate your tail feels safe for the time being ! It is tres magnifique !
Oh, I am happy to find out about that. Perhaps when she gets back we can look further into treatment, but as it is now, I surprise everyone by darting around the garden when no one expects it. I’m even confused about this myself!
