It’s half term. And, whereas most cats wake you up on weekends/holidays at the same time that they would wake you during a working week, mine decided, on the first day of my break, to wake me FORTY-FIVE MINUTES earlier than my usual weekday alarm. What an absolute bastard.

By the way, this was before daylight savings day. So he doesn’t even have that excuse.

In somewhat-related news, we all know that Louis Catorze is odd. We’ve known this for some time. 

The little sod is still being a pest at mealtimes, screaming and clambering all over whilst we eat. However, I’ve noticed that one particular item seems to spark his curiosity more than any other, and is guaranteed to have him drop whatever he is doing and race over, all psycho-eyed and fangy.

That item is, erm, my fruit-flavoured electrolyte powder. Neither fruit nor electrolytes nor powder make this remotely appealing for any cat but, wherever he is on the planet, he will seek me out when I am opening one of these. 

One friend suggested that perhaps these sachets look too much like Lick-e-Lix. However, I have never given Catorze Lick-e-Lix IN MY LIFE. It’s possible that he might have had it whilst living at the rescue or with his foster mamma, but I doubt that anyone as thick as he could remember that far back. 

Another friend suggested that perhaps the little sod might be receiving secret Lick-e-Lix from some local dealer. Now, this is far more likely than the idea of him remembering it from over ten years ago. 

If you are the neighbour who’s been feeding Lick-e-Lix to a scraggy, starving stray, please note that he is only one of those three things.
