I've a fun new game: Hiding The Soap.

I fetch the bar off the washbasin onto the floor and pull up the
bathmat and bury it underneath.

If it's still soft from recent use and My Hoomin doesn't notice
he then gets to tread on it with a lovely squishy sound and a
nice residual mess.

You're bound to be popular when this happens so give it a try!

Tell your Hoomin to wash with his tongue like we cats do.
   Then he wouldn't need soap. <G>

Cool trick, Claudius! just make sure your hoomin doesn't slip and fall
when he steps on the soap. He might not be able to give you food then!
Ah, the horror!

Yawn.  Been there done that.  I also broke Paw Rob's electric razor, tore up
the tongue paper, brought down a shower curtain,  shredded the really ugly
wall paper in the fat wench's bathroom,  found the places where they hide
the magazines and brought them out for everyone to look at.  And that's just
the bathroom.

You kits need to expand your horizons.  You'll never get up to the levels of
us older cats.  We're pretty good at causing disruption and mayhem.  Better
yet, we won't share our secrets.  So Nah.

You kits boast for no reason.  When the hoomin slips and falls, then you can
boast.  I haven't make a hoomin slip and fall yet, other than the fat wench,
who deserved it.  But I have gotten the blonde wench in trouble by climbing
in the shower with her, then convincing PawRob and the fat wench that she
forced me into the shower and then spiked my fur.  Watching her face while
PawRob and the fat wench yelled at her for getting me wet was well worth the
effort.

Fang u for the tip Cap'n. Only fing, as Caliban rote: if we damage our
hoomin
(those of us with only one) whool feed us then?

I neerly got my hoomin to kill hisself on the sope under the mat before
I
reelised.

My fluffy thug senior Snowball, Class of '03, had a VERRY expensiv
trick,
I wunder if it's a record: he scratched big holes in the foam surrounds
of ojur hoomin's 15.75" studio-standard woofers, value over USD1,000
a pair, ruining the Frekwency Response and ventilating the sealed
kabinets, so stopping the use of stereo ekwipment worth in retale
terms maybe USD40,000.

Expensiv clors or wat?

You know that the hoomin is hooked if s/he still feeds you after you
afterwards.  You're supposed to show them who's boss, not kill dem, dummy.
I like the speaker trick.  I'd do it here, but the hoomins haven't got any
worth the effort.  Snowball's ears probly hurt after listening to some of
the noises the hoomins call music.  QC, my elder sister (yes folks, we had
her checked out, she is a girl, what we thought were boy parts were from an
operation before she was dumped) hated the sound of one of the telefones so
much that she would bite through the cords.  The hoomins had to buy a lot of
fone cords, then finally bought another fone.

BTW where do you think the mothership gets those tricks from anyway?  We,
the hoolicats of the past and present, send our ideas to the mothership.
That doesn't mean that she gets all of our ideas, or even our best.  A cat's
gotta keep something for him/her self.

Prolly. But my hoomin's previous master Kensey _liked_ his music so
much he'd curl up & relax right at the perfect stereo crossover point
in the centre of the room!

What a funny cat!  I wonder why he likes water so much?  Usually
kitties are landlubbers.

I don't know why.  I just know that PC pulled the same stunt on me once, and
it back fired.  He has never forgiven me for this.  PC is just a strange all
out hoolicat masquerading as a white w/brown tabby.  BTW he's totally
terrified of cars, which is amazing to us as it has been years since he was
abandoned on Morrow Mountain.  Poor kit, some things you never get over.

Katie (died 2002) did this to me once.  She threw up a hairball just
outside the bathroom door, and I stepped in it when I was fresh out of
bed, and still more asleep than awake.  I ended up with a bruised
butt, a bruised knee from bouncing off the door frame on the way down,
and slightly-processed cat food smeared over my pajamas.

Katie threw up quite often.  The vet initially diagnosed this as just
hairballs, and had me try various hairball remedies, without success.
Unfortunately, by the time the problem was correctly identified as
advanced cancer, it was too late to save her life.
