Kreisleriana - 05 Jul 2006 08:04 GMT My Mom had just settled in bed last night, and was starting a little pre-sleep reading, when Stinky came into her room, walked around the bed , fixed her with a meaningful look, and said "MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW." Then he picked himself back up, and went out again. He had just eaten, his water bowl was full, the box was clean, and Dante was snoozing, so there was nothing obvious to us that needed attention, but there was still something he had to get off his chest, and to Mom in particular. And he was apparently satisfied with that, because he came back to me, climbed into my lap, and went right to sleep. ;)

Duty fulfilled, he can sleep with a clear conscience.

That is usually what this sort of speechifying means if the food bowl, the water bowl (BEAR'S water bowl, they don't drink much from their own) and the litter boxes are all shipshape. Well, at least once, Winnie seemed to be telling me that Bear needed to be walked but that may have been a coincidence. Winnie is the spokescat, although the whole committee sometimes addresses me about food issues.

LOL, well it wasn't worrying him *too* much, since he did go right to sleep afterwards. ;0

Stormin Mormon - 05 Jul 2006 17:22 GMT Either that, or Timmy has been cornered by a bear, and the park ranger isn't noticing. In any case, they have to rescue Timmy cause without him it wouldn't be the Lassie show.

He's turned into my mother.

We are not sure, but we think its his way of saying (at the top of his voice) "I'm bored, I'm Bored, I'm BORED, I'M BORED .... DO SOMETHING". If one of us get up and approaches him then he RUNS away with his tail swishing in delight (he loves a game of kiss-chasey), but if we don't respond then he hunts down Persephone and ambushes her (very cute). Regardless, there is always an opera from him to set the mood.

Regardless, there is > always an opera from him to set the mood. Yep, this is exactly what Licky does. I know he gets bored sometimes because he's stuck with 3 middle-aged ladies who just don't have the same amount of energy he has. Whenever he gets that look (and makes the accompanying howls for attention), I try to rouse myself to throw his foam ball, which he loves to chase. He always looks so happy when I do that, that it's worth forcing my lazy butt out of the computer chair. :)
(Aside: he was so attached to one foam ball that he pretty much tore it to shreds. At some point, it stopped rolling because it was no longer spherical, but he'd still chase it. Then it got all crusty and gross looking, but he still wanted to play with it. Finally, I went to a pet store and bought some new ones for him. Then I got to retire the old one, which by that point had become nothing but a random blob of dirt.)

Still a bit of kitten in him. :) It's adorable. Stinky has always had things to say, he just doesn't seem to talk to my mom that much-- he usually talks to me. That's why we thought it was so funny that he had to go make some kind of special announcement to her. ;) He usually comes to me to start herding me to bed at night. ;)
And he has never liked to be chased. Tiny Mimi adored being chased, and begged for it every night in the most adorable way-- she would come prancing into a room, come up to you, and then skitter away from you suggestively. Then she would floor it. ;) Poor Stinky-- whenever you try to chase him, he freezes and hits the deck - doesn't mean however, he's not happy to do the chasing. So fascinating how different they all are from each other.

I would like to get into their furry little heads.
