AT HOME WITH THE FELINE SCHOOLERS: Why use mine when I can use yours!!

Why use mine when I can use yours!!

Well. Fourteen cats in the house.

Lots of cat litter trays. The 'little' ones are too young to let out. Need the 'op' first.

We have been trying to be eco friendly re cat litter and so have shredded paper by hand for this. Boring and doesn't half give your joints jip!! Mother uses newspaper for her mog, Jimmy, too.

So, pissed off with shredding, Junior decides that enough is enough!! We have shredder for poops sake. Soooo, she proceeds to shred the huge pile of newspapers than bro brought us the other day.

Soon, it is done. We have a few bin liners brimming with shredded Daily Mails, etc.

We changes the litters. Pops in the shredded paper....which even to me seems a little....bouncy.

Result......=.... shredded paper all over the place! 'Tis like wool and brings out the playfulness in the mogs. Bad idea.

Soooo....Min and Junior admit defeat and traipse up to the local, nearest for miles and, thus, overpriced shop and brings back cat litter!! Oh feline joy!!

Olive doesn't give a shit (language Timothy) and dives straight in....to a litter which is not hers. Why deposit a BIG bleugh in your own when you can stick it in someone else's!!

Clever mog:o))

Still pongs, though!!! Arghhhh!!!!

Meg doesn't look grumpy at all... how old is she?; December 9, 2008 at 1:48 AM
Minnie said...: Megan is nearly 2 now. She's a small cat. Don't know why she's so grumpy of late. Maybe she wants her kids to leave home? lol Popeye is huge and very playful...like a puppy....and very funny. No grumpiness there. He comes back on command when we call him. He just has a habit of bringing frogs into the house!! Frogs are screamers, so we can usually rescue and relocate them. I even ended up with one under the bed!! Ack!

Our dog is well outnumbered but she cleans and fusses over the younger cats....proper mother hennish:o) She nicks the cat food in payment, though:o); December 9, 2008 at 2:31 AM

THE MOGS

Bart-Ginger and white boy. Big lad, little meow:o) Snoozing partner of Tinks. Very cuddly. Always looks scruffy. Olive's first born:o)
Henry VIII- Black and white. A cute, active fellow who loves Cilla. One half of the Chuckle Brothers. Eighth kitten in the house, hence the 'title'. lol Olive's no 4, after Meg's 4.
Honey Pot- Black, big round eyes. Well trained by Junior. Besotted with one another. She is Megan's daughter and quite titchy.
Jimmy - Tuxedo and getting on a big. Bit large around the waistline. He is Mother's cat but he has to live with us. Lives a life of luxury, thanks to Mother. Likes tuna and sleep:o) Very quiet gentleman who is no trouble at all:o) Junior's charge.
LooLoo- Black fluffy. Expert at balancing on dining chairs or anything beam like. A delicate little soul.. She is my pick from Olive's first litter (but we kept them all..how could we choose?) She has the tiniest of miaows but is steely in determination when it comes to fussing her. She won't let you stop with the fussing and stroking until she says so!! Olive's second born.
Megan- Grumpy of late. Entitled to it. One of the matriarchs. Junior's No 1 cat. She came to us via my brother, who rescued her, together with Popeye and Olive when they were 6 weeks old.
Muppet- Feral and elderly. Still gives us a run for our money!! She just HATES being inside.
Olive- Sweet, tri coloured, fluffy. She lets me sleep in my own bed! A dedicated mum. A bit potty and her waistline seems to be expanding to Garfield proportions, even though she runs around alot. Had her from a 6 week old. She was attacked by a dog when she was 12 weeks old and had to have her jaw and palate wired up. Thought we were going to lose her, but she's a brave little thing. There's just something special about her. She's my favourite because of what she's gone through. A bit naughty, though. She takes great delight in tormenting Spooky and Muppet, who just don't want to play!!
Popeye-Daddyo:o) Sweet natured and loyal. Black shiny coat. Very strong...he can headbut a heavy dog crate to escape outside!! I often wake up to find him snoozing beside me. All protective:o) He came here at 6 weeks of age and now is a handsome lad.
Ringo- Talkative Felix lookalike. Sweet. Likes his own bed and is the other half of the Chuckle Brothers. He has an almost Siamese miaow. Has soulful, beautiful eyes. When he decides to give you a cuddle, he plonks himself on you and won't budge!! lol He is Olive's no 5.
Spooky-Muppet's sister. Very talkative and cantankerous! You can hear her up the road!! She likes to pad on your knee.....ow!!!
Tinkabelle-brindle coloured. Sweet, slender and trills for England! Snoozing partner of Bart. She is absolutely hyper!! Loves looking out of the window. She, Bart and Olive are the fly catchers and can often be heard jumping up against the garden room windows in attempts to catch the little creatures...which are, unfortunately, usually on the other side of the glass! lol Olive's No 3.
