What bothers you and why?

Cat Daddy and I are holidaying in the Outer Hebrides, and Louis Catorze is someone else’s problem now in the care of his chat-sitteur. However, despite our distance, it seems we have not been able to wholly escape the little sod. 

We saw this picture in a restaurant in Stornoway:

Bastard cat – oh wait, this isn’t actually him.

And Cat Daddy has remarked that the sound of bleating sheep is strikingly similar to that of the Catorzian scream. 

He has a point. 

As for what bothers us – well, being in such a breathtakingly beautiful place means that we have very little to worry about. However, on the morning that we left London, we saw Foxy Loxy hovering around the cat flap and, when he couldn’t get indoors, he strolled off down the path towards the Zone Libre. Catorze was asleep on the outdoor sofa at the time yet, curiously, neither party saw one another. 

Catorze isn’t usually one for minding his own business, so let’s hope that things remain this respectful/inattentive (we don’t mind which). An all-out turf war, especially in our absence, would be bothersome to the highest degree. 

The chat-sitteur sent us this. I bet the lazy sod will be in the same position when we go home.

          I’m really missing the little sod. (Cat Daddy says he isn’t.)

            We know he is. As soon as he gets home there will be a boys night! 😉

    Looks like he is posing as the logo for an athletic shoe. Hoping he has a peaceful Bastille Day.

    Cat Daddy’s comment about the sound of bleating sheep makes my day. Thak you for it. As to Foxy Loxy hovering around the cat flap without having any look at Louis, I don’t know what to think. Foxes are clever. Perhaps Foxy Loxy knows Louis is a terrific adversary. Therefore, it’s best not to disturb him 🦊.

      I’m more inclined to think he didn’t consider him a worthwhile snack! 🦊 🍽️

      Merci! And no, he couldn’t give a stuff. He’s having an absolute blast with his chat-sitteur.

    You’ll enjoy your holiday more by imagining facing Louis as he screams at you for leaving him behind when you have returned, For now, just be happy and joyful.

      I actually miss him! Cat Daddy, however, is happy and joyful.

    He thinks it perfectly understandable to find a picture of le roi in public places. 🙂

      I’m sure he does! If he could he’d make it compulsory, like everyone had to have a portrait of Pétain (I think) during WWII.
