the Tribebeastssnooty cat

All Six

all six

We once took a photo of the whole Tribe together on the bed - it was in the days when They Were Nine, and gone are Mollie, Zool, Shrimp and Drumknott, and Esk and Ptep have moved to Norwich.

I doubt we'll ever get the current Tribe to sit together, but they were all in the study together yesterday, waiting for us to turn off the rain, so here's a photo montage of them all.

why is he asking *me*?

Pete has just come and asked me ...

"why is there a dead bird in the bedroom doorway?".

I think he's asking the wrong person [fx: looks hard at Lily].

bye bye blackbird

on what we grandly call the lawn* this morning lay a dead male blackbird, wearing a somewhat startled expression.

no idea who is the guilty one, although my money's on Lilith.

* but is in reality a patch of grass and clover and dandelions.

drugs

we have some catnip, which is was stored in the set of wicker drawers on my desk.

this morning, when I entered the study, I discovered chaos ... they'd managed to open the drawer, extract the catnip packet, extract the polythene bag from *inside* the packet, and strew catnip across the floor.

the house is full of crazed kittens ...

the catnip is now safely (?) inside a jam jar.

cats - what are they *for* ?

we told you we were stressed

from today's Times comes an article informing us that "Feline health professionals have discovered that cats suffer from debilitating stress just like human beings."

bless them

I got up this morning to find that an unidentified cat (although Esk is no.1 suspect) had crapped in the bathroom, and another unidentified cat (yes, Esk again, I reckon), had thrown up on the landing.

Pete has a far stronger stomach than I, and usually cleans up these leavings, thankfully. I remarked to him that we only needed to find a small furry corpse for the full set; he pointed out that a large furry corpse would do just as well.

half an hour later, I found it. By treading on it (euwwwwww). Cats ... what are they *for*?
