Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / December 2006I skeered my boy! :(
I was walking into the computer room this evening, and Licky was standing in the doorway, waiting for me to come in so he could get petted (this room is his favorite place for that). I was moving at a fast clip, and he suddenly darted toward me, and we had a little collision in the doorway, which banged against him kind of hard. He shot off out of sight, and didn't come out from behind the big recliner (one of his favorite hiding places) for about 15 minutes. And when he did, he just sat there staring at me like he was sure I was the #1 public menace. And nothing could convince him to relax, not all the syrupy apologies and coo-cooing in the world! My poor scaredy-cat! But I guess all is forgiven - he's now lying in my arms, purring full blast. He's not only a scaredy-cat, he apparently has a very short memory.

He's going to milk this for all it's worth! He will give you big eyes and a beggy, sad face for days until you pet him for a few hours each time. You might as well cancel all other commitments for awhile... :) Rhonda >> But I guess all is forgiven - he's now lying in my arms, purring full >> blast.

And you should hear his piteous meow, when he wants attention! > You might as well cancel all other commitments for awhile... :) You mean like my job? Oh, what a shame. :) Joyce That used to happen to me with Grant all the time! I always felt SO bad, but he would often jump somewhere just in front of me suddenly, or I would move to pet him just as he suddenly jumped somewhere. It was so hard too! His poor little head. I'm glad Licky got over it. > I was walking into the computer room this evening, and Licky was > standing in the doorway, waiting for me to come in so he could get [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Joyce > I was walking into the computer room this evening, and Licky was > standing in the doorway, waiting for me to come in so he could get [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > Joyce Poor baby. ;-)  SignatureAdrian (Owned by Snoopy and Bagheera) Cats leave pawprints on your heart. http://community.webshots.com/user/clowderuk >I was walking into the computer room this evening, and Licky was >standing in the doorway, waiting for me to come in so he could get [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > >Joyce Sounds like Smokey, he too is a scaredy-cat. They easily forgive as long as they get the better end of the deal. ;-) Randy http://picasaweb.google.com/crmartin1 http://kittenwar.com/kittens/74045/ This kind of thing happens all the time with Tiger. He doesn't get scared however - he just hisses. ---MIKE--- >>In the White Mountains of New Hampshire >> (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') aawww, Lee > I was walking into the computer room this evening, and Licky was > standing in the doorway, waiting for me to come in so he could get [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Joyce jXwXeXrXmXoXnXt@sonic.net wrote in news:4580e049$0$80087 $742ec2ed@news.sonic.net: > I was walking into the computer room this evening, and Licky was > standing in the doorway, waiting for me to come in so he could get [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Joyce I think you've been played.

She was not the bravest dog in the world. On one occasion, I rounded a hallway corner too fast and startled Dixie; for the rest of the day, she would bark at me whenever she saw me. By the next morning, however, she had gone back to being friendly. SignatureJohn F.

He is my sensitive boy, who has a fierce Protector. I'm merely a lowly slave. Joyce > > Kitty sez hmmm. She will fight you if you upset her Licky ever.

Yes, five on the back not exactly like a little thumb, more like an extra toe. It doesn't matter really. All Kitty likes to do at her great age of 20 plus is to snooze in front of the fire, she has no interest in answering your questions about her feet. Zzzzzz. >>>>>>>>> KFC says how dare you upset her beloved Licky?
