Louis Catorze’s new favourite place is atop the trellis which would have held our honeysuckle plant, had it decided to actually grow properly. 

Bizarrely, Blue the Smoke Bengal has also recently decided that it’s his new favourite place. However, rather than surveying his kingdom, which is what Catorze does when he sits here, Blue is probably surveying us to see if we’ve returned his stash of catnip to its rightful place. 

Unfortunately we haven’t. 

So the poor boy is doomed to sit here, going cold turkey, forever. We can’t even give him a cheer-up cuddle because he runs away if we approach, despite being super-affectionate when he sees us at his own house. 

Sorry, Blue. You’ll have to find a new supplier. 

You’ve got to admire his optimism.

        My cat Jake (RIP) used to lay on a plant in the yard and demolish it.

            I have a picture of him (he was my black monster) but I don’t know how to post it on your blog. I tried to copy and paste and it didn’t work.

    Aww, poor thing. It’s hard when you can’t communicate.

      It’s probably also quite hard when you’re stoned. 🤣🤣🤣

    Couldn’t you at least sprinkle some dried catnip where you used to keep the fresh stuff?

      I’ll double-check with his mamma whether this kind of thing is allowed! 🤣🤣🤣

            Just put out the dry ‘Nip. No need to tell Blue’s mama.

              Hehe, I’d feel bad about getting him stoned and not saying anything!

    Honeysuckles are called chèvrefeuilles in French. According to some experts, they are called so because they climb like goats. Would we dare say Louis and Blue also climb like goats?

      Blue is a bit of a, erm, larger gentleman, but he has youth on his side.

    So it’s gone because he OD’ed on it ? Hmm. Not sure how well cats learn from that sort of “lesson.”

    You really should be replacing Blue’s source of drugs. He’s probably out there mugging passing cats for their ‘nip. Sooner or later he’ll end up in kitty gaol.

        He didn’t have to mug passing cats though. The Graet Cat Conspiracy would I feel have not entertained a complaint from a mere tin opener.

          Yeah, and it would’ve been an all-cat jury presiding over the case.
