Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / February 2007Bas@@rd Cat Trick
I was eating dinner last night and Kramer kept jumping up on the table. I put him down at least 5 times! He has been pretty good lately and staying off the table while we are eating but Dennis wasn't home so I guess he felt he should fill in for him. Well I was looking out the window and heard a thump and looked around. Seems Kramer tried jumping on the table again and knocked a pan of very dark brown gravy on the floor. There was a 2 ft circle of gravy on the light carpeting, gravying on the chairs, up the side of the credenza, up my pant legs and socks and Kramer was covered with gravy (It was only slightly warm by this time). He took off and ran into the bedroom, jumped up on the bed and proceeded to roll around on the comforter. I grabbed him and gave him a bath, which didn't impress him a whole lot. I then started cleaning up the mess. There is still a light stain on the carpeting, I didn't have any shampoo for the carpet shampooer so I used some of the spray stuff after moping it up with a towel. I'm off work today so I will go get shampoo and hopefully get the stain out. We just had the carpeting installed last June! The joys of a kitten! ;-) Randy http://picasaweb.google.com/crmartin1 http://kittenwar.com/kittens/74045/ > around.

You mean you didn't let him clean the gravy off himself? :) Victor >> around. Seems Kramer tried jumping on the table again and knocked a pan of >>very [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > >LOL!

He deserved that bath, the little troublemaker. That must have been one of those "you're only alive right now because you're too cute to strangle" moments. :) My carpet is covered with years of stains from kitty mischief, as well as kitty barfing, and my own spilled-coffee and tea stains. Makes me glad I'm a renter! :) Hope you can get it all out. Joyce PS - I love your description of the gravy "gravying on the chairs, up the side of the credenza", etc. I suppose that is what gravy does - it gravys. :) > > ...I was looking out the window and heard a thump and looked > > around.

A little while later he was curled up in my lap, the little turd!

I'm sorry about the mess, it sounds awful to have had to clean all that up, including one wiggly, indignant kitten. He sure maximized the damage done, the little fiend. Just never try to paint your home with Kramer in residence, or lord knows WHAT he might do! I remember one evening, Pan got the raging zoomies like that. I have shelves in my kitchen upon which I keep teapots, ornamental items etc etc, and Pan used to like to sit or lie on the top shelf and supervise me while I cooked or cleaned. He'd hop onto the counter and then up to the shelf from there. Well... one night, he was moving too fast and miscalculated his distances. Alas for him, I'd been washing the dishes during his zoomy episode, and he fell into the dish pan. He escaped via the dish drainer and broke one of the saucers of my best china dessert set (*&^ % cat!) then fled, dripping, into my bedroom. After I stopped laughing I went in to dry him off. He was washing a front paw, near the bathroom door, pretending nothing had happened. You never saw such an embarrassed cat in your life. =o) Melissa >> I was eating dinner last night and Kramer kept jumping up on the table. I put >> him down at least 5 times!
