Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / May 2008Roxy entertains my singing group
Last night my choral group had our weekly rehearsal, but the woman who usually hosts the rehearsals was sick and couldn't be there. So we met at my place instead. It was about 95 degrees (35 C) in the apartment, even with the fans going, so we were all pretty wilted. We did make a half-hearted attempt at singing, but then Roxy jumped onto a chair when the person who had been sitting there stood up. It happened to be my office chair, which I'd wheeled into the living room to accomodate extra people. It also spins around. So I said to someone standing by the chair, "Hey, spin that chair around - Roxy loves it." So she spun the chair, and Roxy obliged by digging her claws in and looking cute. She (the person) spun the chair for quite a long time, and then started spinning it the other way. I was worried that Roxy would grace us all with a huge barf, but instead she just kind of sprawled out on the chair (with claws dug into the fabric so she wouldn't fly off), and looked *totally stoned*. Everyone was greatly amused. And then we bagged the rehearsal and all went out for ice cream. It was that kind of night!

Sounds like a good time was had by all, especially Roxy. SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki.

Oh, we always get a few days like this in the summer. Especially since I live in the East Bay, which is always warmer than San Francisco. I'm just bummed because my car's air conditioner conked out a couple of months ago. The other day I brought the car in to have it looked at, and the estimate to get it fixed was $1400. Don't think so! :) So my 45-minute commute to work is going to be a bit warmer this summer. SignatureJoyce To email me, remove the triple-X from my user name. ^..^ My van is a2000 and the air went out last summer. 1200 to fix it, that's more than the thing is worth. My DIL moaned all summer until her mother bought her a van with air. My son still drives mine most of the time. > >> It was about 95 degrees (35 C) in the apartment, even with the fans > >> going, so we were all pretty wilted.

Winnie It's going to be in the 90's here in Washington State for the next couple of days. I'm wilting too...ice cream anyone? Hug Kyla > "Winnie" ... > On May 15, 10:47 pm, bastXXXe...

I kept putting off getting the AC ready for the summer, which can get as hot as the high 30s C or around 100 F.

My husband spins Chloe around in his computer chair and she loves it, too! She also likes being roughed up a little bit, which is totally weird. When Allan pets her, he shakes her head, jiggles her butt, rubs her fur backwards and she just digs her claws in and mews. Not in a bad way, either! She actually enjoys it. She's an odd one, that little girl. :~) kili > She also likes being roughed up a little bit, which is totally > weird.

She's an odd one, > that little girl. :~) Miranda loves being 'beaten up' like that, too. She has a few favourite places where she goes when she wants to be 'tortured'; the easy chair or my dining table. She comes and screams at me, then she runs to one of these places and hunkers down in preparation for the 'onslaught.' SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban.

Chloe always jumps to the couch and screams at my husband to "torture" her, too. Miranda and Chloe must be related. LOL. kili > And then we bagged the rehearsal and all went out for ice cream.
