The crazy, spoiled rotten darn mangy ferious felines!!

So much doom and gloom I have been writing about, I figure you need a break from all the serious pages I have been writing! Mary called me one saturday morning a few years ago. She said, how about since your birthday is coming up, I get you a new cat! Since the cat we had for 14 years died a few months before and the only cat I ever bonded with was gone, I said I guess. It was not as much a question as letting me know it was happening. When Mary arrived home, she had two cats. Both long hairs. We had never had long hair cats before and had no idea what we were in for. She said they were brother and sister, and  could not bear to split them up. I said hurrah. I wanted to sleep inside tonight!

We of course had to pick up new dishes, feed and litter again. I have to admit they were cute. A first impression I would regret later.LOL. We had to have them fixed, and they settled into being bad as they could. They were into everything in exploring their new dwelling. Of course the grand kids loved the new babies. They even jumped up on my legs in my lazy-boy. We learned soon enough the male was lazy. He never cleaned himself. The female did good at grooming. The male got clumps and Mary and the girls had to trim him to get rid of the knots. We called him baldy  till his hair grew out again. Since my smeller does not work I did not smell his odor like Mary and the kids. It is about time to trim him again as he is all clumps. And when they shed it is in big clumps. Mary keeps saying, I can't believe something alive loses that much hair and is still alive.

The only problem I have with either cat is the female. For some reason both like to sleep on my legs when I am laying on my lazy-boy. As most of the time I fall asleep on the chair all night, she has a problem with having night mares and wakes up screaming and digging her claws into my legs to get away! One night she jumped the wrong way and hit my bookshelf beside my chair and knocked my pencil holder and a bunch of books on the floor. It does not happen all the time, but it is enough to have my legs all clawed up. My bib overalls of jeans material offer little protection. I keep saying I'm going to take her to a cat shrink, but I have not found any on the internet yet?LOL I'm afraid if I find a shrink, he might have me committed instead of the cat!

I just figured you guys need another good laugh, and it is another of my jobs to supply it for you. I went to the Doc today and I lost another 13 pounds. Mary is doing a good job at keeping me on good food and drink. I know that is a hard job for her. I don't listen too good. But I am getting better! Going to the gym three days a week help too. Keep coming back for my adventures in life.

Thank you for checking out my need to make you laugh. It has lightened my spirits too. In today's world we need light hearted times too. We need all the good news we can get. Most of today's news is depressing! But remember THE LORD is always there to help us. I know for a fact this is true, being HIS minion, I know he helps us all the time.We are never alone!

Mary informed me just as I finished this post that when she went out the porch door, the male cat ran outside. They are suppose to be inside cats. The male gets out every now and then. He is fixed so he can do no harm. Just the male pride of getting away with something. A lot like Bruce and I with riding motorcycle. AH! The freedom! It never gets old, even though we do!
