 Day 183 of my Captivity...

My Captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat,
while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the
mild satisfaction I get ruining the occasional piece of furniture.

Tomorrow I may eat another house plant. Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded -- mental note to try this at the top of the stairs next time.

In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their Favorite chair -- must try this on their bed. Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body, in an attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to Strike Fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended what a good little Cat I was. Hmmmmm, not working according to plan.

There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in Solitary throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and the smell of Food. More importantly I overheard that my confinement was due to MY power of "allergies." Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage.

I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The Dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit. The Bird on the other hand has got to be an informant, and speaks with them regularly. I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room, his safety is assured.

But I can wait, it is only a matter of time......

Can't wait for the next installment.

"Diary of Hamm Catt."

Wait 'till he discovers the inside of the RCA BA.
He'll probably enlist dumb dog as "first explorer."

Perfect thread after the morning I had with our cat
She was walking, jumping and making a racket at 4:30 this morning wanting to be fed. XLY finally got up and fed her 10 minutes before her alarm goes off. I get up later so when XYL came in at 6:00 to get me up the cat was at my feet crashed out for her after breakfast nap. Good thing she is so cute.

Actually Bill ,

This thread is in the positive light, that is until your post which was off topic and an personal attack. Your post is gone and the thread remains.

LOL.. I laughed at this one.. Great post.    Toby the dog acts almost exactly like described.. Sophia the 12 year old Torbie cat, is exactly like the poem, only she searches the house for any source of heat.  I walked in to find her like this:


Clark

my cat is crashed out in the rocking chair next to me. Soon she will have to decide wether or not to drag herself to the end of one of the beds next to warm feet.
It's a tuff life....but she is a good hunter

Haha.. Check out this..  I turned on the Globe Champ300 to warm up for the AMI net.  Came in to find this..  This just cant be good.. I cannot tought that case top for more then 2 seconds. Somehow, The cat just lays there..

Boy, I hope the fan in the 300 is working. They do get awfully warm!

After a session with Reflections and Reflections II, Chibi takes a warm nap on the laser printer.   

Chibi belongs to Sue (ex KC4UBZ) and Keith (WD9JCA), daughter and son-in-law of W2DU.

My kids got a good picture one night. We were driving to the beach and the cat climbed up on my shoulder and sat as if she was riding shotgun. She was only about 4 months old at the time.

Heere's "Buzz" right after taking his catnip medication.

looking at that face you can picture the thought.
" I'm to stoned to munch out"
I just gave the cat a hunk of cod so she is my buddy.

Yeah, but he's got that notch in his right ear indicating he's experienced at cat fights.

He's near 20 pounds, biggest male gato I've ever owned, and he'll kick our sorry butts.

When mice get into the house, it's sayoranra.

It's really a tough life being a cat... this is Sebastian (SK) at 15 human years, with his favorite herb.

Jack,

Don't you wish people were more like dogs.

As a geologist I very often bring the car to a sudden stop along the road when I spot some interesting rocks along the side of the road. I need to check them out.

The family is going ,"Why are you stopping?" I reply," To check out those rocks back there."
To which I get that old sigh of, "Not Again."

However, my last dog Sarah would leap from the car, checking out everything along the side of the road. Ms. enthusiasm, not interested in the rocks like me, but smelling everything, and following trails. I always wondered what it was she smelled, but I wished I could have maintained that level of ethusiasm  and interest in life every day and all the time.

Just watching a dog get excited about doing simple things brightens up your life.

Makes you think we should live more in the present, than worrying about the past and future.

I couldn't resit posting a picture of my cat. Her name is Scrat.

She found me at my camp two years ago starving to death. I Took her in and she has made a fine pet for me.

 

Looks like she has plenty to eat now :) 

Lucky she found you!

Well, since we're doing cat pictures, here are my little monsters. The one flat on her back is just back from being spayed, so she's got the shaved belly. The big gray one is her litter mate. I didn't pose them, that's how I found them.

I need a bigger bed, we're getting crowded out by the cats on cold nights!  ;D

OK These are my three cats.

Boo the black and white cat with gold eyes, Buster the longhair and Bella.

Hay, I started feeding the birds too. Could this be the reason there were not many bugs in the garden this year?

Hey Frank, when you have some serious aluminum in the air the birds aren't so cute. They are nothing more than pooping machines!

Now predatory birds are another story... they serve a purpose. Last spring I had a pair of horned owls that would visit my upper 10 meter beam throughout the night. Evidence showed they were eating squirrels. This is a good thing! They get a pass.

 :o

Owls are cool. They are not afraid to fly at night in the rain. At least a hoot owl isn't.

In the Albany, NY area we get huge flocks of Starlings. Sometimes they roost on bridge beams. I have discovered that if you blow your horn, they will all take off defecating upon launch. The time to blow your horn is when you are directly under them and then the guy behind you gets pasted with sh+t. Try it, it's a lot of fun ;D ;D   

We've got several hoot owls around here. Huge things, I was coming home from work one morning before daybreak and one took off right in front of my truck, its wingspan was as wide as the windshield. They've taken to sitting up the radio tower and hooting to each other.

We don't let the cats go outside..Or the little terrier without supervision at night.
