Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2004Home invasion
At 6 am while I was still sleeping, someone broke into my house. It was a big man. No, it was a very big man. He stormed up the staircase, thundering, shaking the walls. He stormed toward my bedroom as I cowered in fear under my blanket. He jumped on the bed and pinned me down with his pointy feet and headbutted me with his furry head. Then he turned around and stormed out of the room and back down the stairs. I could hear him trampelling around downstairs in the living room before he came charging up the stairs again and into the bedroom. Again, I was pinned down by his pointy feet and headbutted against my will. This was just unfair! I should open my eyes to get a look at the bastard. Dare I? What have I got to lose? Ok, I squinted and took a peek. Awww, who could be afraid of a cute little furry intruder with peachy fur and no tail??? -- Britta Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album > At 6 am while I was still sleeping, someone broke into my house.

Have to admit that when I saw the header my first thought was that the chocolate kitty had found the patio door open ;-) After the first few sentences you had me going, but the pointy feet and furry headbutts gave it away.

Impossible.

He is a big round fuzzbucket a lot of the time, but a few times a day he turns into one of those long, lithe nocturnal type jungle animals with headlamp eyes.

(Aldous Huxley) Imp and Mischief are my very first kitties. When I first got Imp, he would totally scare me by jumping on the bed in the middle of the night. I grew up with dogs, so I'm used to hearing animals moving around the place. I wasn't used to a silent cat jumpin on the bed. Sheesh! He doesn't sleep on my bed that much anymore. I think it's because I tend to thrash around in my sleep. He likes my roommate a lot more even though he's MY kitty. hmph! Kristi > At 6 am while I was still sleeping, someone broke into my house.

Any earlier and I run out of stuff to do in the day and end up bored in the evening.

You scared me for a moment. Then I realized who your intruder was, and giggled. Pam S. glad that you're all okay > > At 6 am while I was still sleeping, someone broke into my house.

He stormed up the staircase, [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > Pam S. glad that you're all okay I was actually scared for a moment when the racket woke me up. I thought: "Sheesh, what's going on? Hope nobody broke in and is gonna come into my bedroom. That would be embarrassing 'cause I'm naked. Maybe I should start wearing pajamas at night? Nah, couldn't do it, too hot even with aircon. Well, I sure hope it's not a break-in!" Seriously, that was the first thought that entered my head. I was half asleep I guess. Then I was quite relieved when it was Vino. -- Britta Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album >I was actually scared for a moment when the racket woke me up.

First, she becomes a little bloodhound, and circles the bedroom, sniffing everything very carefully. Then, she'll guard the bedroom door briefly, and sometimes she'll start running all over the house for a few minutes, making galloping sounds. She never gallops when I'm up! > >I was actually scared for a moment when the racket woke me up. I thought: > >"Sheesh, what's going on?

Yes. At night they turn into guard cats, fierce protectors of their sleeping hoomin. Also, nighttime is when greebling activity is at it's highest. Guarding the hoomin becomes of utmost importance then. You are lucky to have a cat. I don't know how you ever survived the night without one ;-) -- Britta Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album >> Do all cats run around "differently" when we're asleep?

Perhaps she's trying to tell you she needs an assistant? (Ducks and runs away very fast indeed!)

You're making her work her little piddy paws off protecting you from those vicious greeblings. PLEASE for all of our entertainment, get poor Miss Betty an assiscat right away.

She's curled up on my lap right now with her paws covering her eyes, looking pretty much dead to the world. Or maybe it's because she actually works really hard while I'm out of the house? You must be receiving drone orders from the PR mothership. When hoomin bedtime comes here, the Evil 3, far from becoming "protectors" from greeblings or even the ever-possible palmetto bug confrontation, become snoring, heat-seeking blobs of fur-covered protoplasm, collapsing in hoomins' face on pillow (yes, catbutt shoved up in hoomin's face) or glued to hoomins' ribs, or plopped on hoomins feet; if feet move a micrometer, Rowdus (his name when he's morphed into "pest" mode) will chomp on toes thereof, disturbing all as hoomin reacts to this bodily insult. All 3 snore, some louder than the other Hopitus2 "protectors".....LOL. : >> To be honest, it sounds like Betty has her work cut out protecting you : >> from greeblings Tak.

All 3 snore, >some louder than the other Hopitus2 "protectors".....LOL. LOL My three all have very different styles of sleeping with me. Rocky is the only one that actually sleeps resting up against me. He never gets up on the bed when I go to bed, but he's sometimes there when I wake up. I woke up the other night from a dream that the apartment was on fire, but turned out that I was just feeling the heat from Rocky SignatureSteve Touchstone, faithful servant of Sammy, Little Bit and Rocky stouchst@JUNKsirinet.net [remove Junk for email] Home Page: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/index.html Cat Pix: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/animals.html > >You must be receiving drone orders from the PR mothership.

Luckily my apartment has a fire sprinkler system but I still fear waking up to a fire. The other thing that really gets me is waking up and having someone standing over my bed. Just creaps me out to no end. Bob > She doesn't seem overworked. She's curled up on my lap right now with > her paws covering her eyes, looking pretty much dead to the world.

You're just lucky you haven't had a greebling swarm, locusts are like nothing to it. Poor Betty, you get a greebling storm, and the poor little thing is going to pass out from exhaustion.

Right, and being in the North East, you're probably more prone to greeblings than any other area of the USA. Tak, you're letting poor Betty down by not getting her an assiscat. Pam S. still giggling >Right, and being in the North East, you're probably more prone to >greeblings than any other area of the USA.

The only subject she seems to know well is enslavement, and I don't want her teaching that to anyone! |
