You know that part in Tim Burton’s “The Nightmare Before Christmas” when the kids’ presents turn into hideous, nightmarish monsters?
Yeah, well:
Oui, Mesdames et Messieurs: Louis Catorze has claimed, as his new bed, my nieces’ and nephews’ presents bag. Luckily each item is individually bagged, keeping them safe from the horrors of cat hair, flea poo and whatever else (I daren’t even think too hard about it). But that’s not the point. He has 9,062 other beds. He doesn’t need more beds. And he certainly doesn’t need something that was never designed to be a bed, as his bed.
Part of me has a good mind to wrap him up and send him along with the other parcels. But that would be too cruel, even to the ones who have been naughty (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE).
It’s a good thing we are happy to have him as our gift this festive season. I guess someone has to.
You can send him here for Christmas. He’ll be well treated. I’m used to being creepy stared and shouted at (thanks Tabbi Kat).

I bet he would love that! Not so sure that you would.

Yes, Louis seems to be “the gift that keeps on giving.” But any new large soft structure is apt to become a cat bed. Joyeaux Noel !

He certainly keeps on giving. What, though, is beyond me.

Cats like entering bags. Our previous cat who was a female, was able to enter an empty bag. The current one hasn’t found how to do it yet despite all his tries.

He’s being a little sod. That’s what he’s doing.

You know, sitting on stuff conveys ownership under the Cat legal code. So it sounds like Louis has procured a bagful of gifts for himself and your nieces and nephews will get none.

They are all warm, fluffy gifts so he would probably love them!

He just wants you to know that it’s cat-approved. 🙂

The last time we put up decorations (a few years ago now), one of our guys decided that the two stacked plastic bins we store the decorations in made the perfect bed/hangout spot. Those bins never got put away again. Do our cats have a million places to sleep? Yes, they do. Does that matter when one of them finds a new spot they like? This is why we can’t have nice things.

I think their mission is to make us feel that the multiple places with which we provide them aren’t good enough. 🙄
