What things give you energy?

This kind of thing DRAINS me of energy. Will that do?

I can hear cat fight sounds coming from the Zone Libre right now. Now, most cat owners would immediately rush to intervene if they found themselves in this situation, but not me.

Firstly, I know that Louis Catorze can handle himself. But the main reason is because it’s broad daylight, and if any of my neighbours see me going to check, it will be a sign of guilt; if I don’t do it, I may be able to get away with pretending I didn’t bother to look because I KNEW it was some other cat, in the event of being asked about it later.

So I shall just sit tight until it stops, and wait for Catorze to pitter-patter indoors without so much as a whisker out of place. I hope the other cat fares as well.

EDIT: He came in minutes after I finished writing this, looking exactly as described above, then creepy-stared for food and promptly went back out again.

Looking for more trouble.

    Small but mighty. Or maybe small but scary.

      He needs a kick up the arse. That’s what he needs.

    Both Ramses and the new kitten are strictly indoor kitties but I rush outside whenever I hear a horrendous cat fight. Reflex action, I guess.

      Do you have neighbouring cats who go outside?

        None that I’m aware of. The ones that I see/hear occasionally outside might be from the surrounding neighborhood. Or they might be feral/semi-feral.

    Most of the time, cats make fight sounds without touching themselves.
    Normally, those animals aren’t crazy, they just try to intimidate each other.

      J’ai dû chercher “teigne” dans le dico!
