Or rather, that was the closest I could get in English with hsi Swedish nickname Klabben, which has evolved into Klabbis, Klabbisen and Klabbi-Klabbi. Klabb can be a piece of firewood or just a clod. Not very flattering, but it just suits him so well, the clumsy little b*gger. SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki.

Do you really go through this every morning? Caliban sure is eager and pushy where his food is concerned. But I expect the calories burn off all too quick. Just think how boring catless people's lives are. ;-) -- CATherine > That was so funny! Do you really go through this every morning? > Caliban sure is eager and pushy where his food is concerned. But I [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > -- > CATherine And sad. And quiet. =o) Think of all the fun and flattering attentiveness they're missing. I usually wake up to Francesca playing with my hair as her way of telling me it's Kitty Breakfast Time. Now that it's a little chillier in the mornings, Nina is usually down by my feet checking out Greebling infestations. Unfortunately, she sometimes mistakes my toes for Greeblings. THAT makes for rather rapid awakenings on my part and the howl of "NIIIINAAA!! STOP that!" LOL, Marina. =o) "Get out of the Refrigerator" is a command I say a lot. Melissa > That was so funny!

I'm afraid he doesn't burn calories quite as fast as he can scarf them down. Caliban is an absolute food hound. And each and every time I open the fridge, he comes hurtling from wherever he happens to be and flings himself into the fridge. Miranda has learned from him, and now even she will take a step inside the fridge sometimes. Yes, that was an accurate account of our mornings. > Just think how boring catless people's lives are. ;-) Ain't that the truth! Last summer, I took the cats to the island at Midsummer, then I left them there with my Mum while I came back to town to work for another week. That week without the cats was soooo long and dreary! I had to call Mum every day so she could tell me what the cats were up to and how Miranda was eating etc. SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki.
