Je crie, donc je suis

Month: May 2019

  • Louis Catorze has utterly acquiesced during brushing and FURmination. Obviously my eardrums and my nerves will be thanking him/my lucky stars/the Goddess for this. But I am cross beyond belief that he chose to be good at the worst moment possible: when I was trying to demonstrate to a friend what a horror he was.…

  • Louis Catorze is bringing psycho back. Not that it ever really went away.  Latest habits include:  Screaming when he wants to be stroked  Screaming when he wants to play Screaming when hungry Screaming when not hungry Forcefully headbutting hands that ignore the screaming  Stomping around the house at night (a small cat can be surprisingly…

He looks just like he did when I accidentally poured xylitol all over him, and it’s so foul that Cat Daddy is…

  • MERCI to everyone who sent good wishes to Louis Catorze on his birthday. It was difficult to know what to buy for a cat who already has everything, so we decided to treat him to some jambon de Bayonne (of which he ate two scraps, then looked at the third as if it were poison…
