Off for the ‘holidays’
Off to the “ThanksChristfreindsmasgiving” gathering of Kayaky-fooz. Off line for 24 hours so y’all gotta keep the shop in order and the coffee pot clean, got it?
Side note of no importance to anyone but me: Elbee shed his last milk tooth last night. Little shit is growin’ up, becomin’ KAT, not just ‘cute kitteh’. Still thinks I am ‘tree’ so I end up with fresh holes in my legs on occasion, but getting better about it. Once he gets a couple more pounds on, that stops, and he is learning that when I give that kitteh yowl (human word OW!) he crossed a line. Much like his former form Grizzykat; I tap his paws when he is kneading and he ‘backs off’ with the flexing murder mittens. Its actually sorta cute: he’ll knead, I tap, he kneads some more, but lighter, I tap, repeat, even softer,,, until he is all but using the claws, just going through the motions,,, He’s figuring out what is acceptable to really dig those meat hooks into and what isn’t (like ME and my sensitive flesh,,, or my office chair, which has seen better days, many a moon ago and many kitteh claws later,,,)
AND, he has been fully adopted by the pride. Zoomerz adopted him really early, but Mama was quite reserved for a long time. She accepted him, but wouldn’t give him the time of day for any reason, NOW? I caught her playing with him on the porch. Rough-housin’ and teaching him some tricks that Zoomers hadn’t: real ninja-kitteh moves! And when she gets tired of his adolescent attitude, she pins him to the ground and lays on top of him. (she is 11 years old, Granny-Kat, and not as ‘tolerant’ or exuberant.) It makes me happy that they are playing, Mama needs that companionship to keep her moods leveled out. She gets so danged moody when its just her and me.
BUT!!!! I am off to see freinds and fam, build a blanket fort with Bub and share a drink or three (humph,,, like three is the limit,,, LOL) with Brudda B and Mama-T
yah,,, Good times await.
