Oh to be a cat

[BigManAquatics]

Ok so I came home from school to find a small sparrow in the kitchen, desperately trying to escape through the window. Before I approached it the sparrow was hiding behind the plant pot. Turns out during the day Willow brought it home and fought my mum for it, hissing whenever my mum tried to extract the sparrow. Silly cat!

"Hooman, how can i gives you gift when you won't let me kill it, first?"

I wish my mum would let me (well, the cats, really) keep Amazon boxes. The cats build fortresses out of them.

They only still there because they haven't been opened yet. I usually let the cats have them for a couple hours once opened though....until they get distracted.

My nephew had a present delivered to my house that was taken up to her’s yesterday. We let Willow use it as a stool while it was in it’s box.

 

[BigManAquatics]

Now the box is mine!!

Oakley came home and has been in a staring contest with the new cat (who my sister has strangely named Wimbleton, not sure it's a reference to something or someone) for a while now. The new cat is growling but Oakley is relatively chilled out, especially in comparison to Willow!

New cat loves to explore.

When you are scared of the firework noise but very curious about the noise as well....

Poor kitties are beside themselves. Scared of the fireworks, getting super friendly and cuddly with us.

Not a cat, but also…..not a “hunting dog.” Hates fireworks x10000000.

She’s been hiding ever since we got the new kitten but she’s slowly coming out of her shell:

Female cats are almost always slower to accept new cats than males, in my experience, anyway.

Whenever my mum browses cats she always avoids the females. Earlier she was swiped by Willow for no reason whilst going downstairs. A high pitched “reow!” was let out.

But Willow is truly a personable cat! She commonly sleeps on my bedroom’s windowsill and sometimes on me!

Yeah, female cats are plenty friendly, the o e we have, all she wants is lovins'!!! But she also has nothing to do with the males....and definitely not as sociable to any guests we have as the boys are

When we have guests, Willow hides, but Oakley goes in for the lovins. Ever since we got the new kitten Oakley has lost his playfulness and often makes crispy chattering sounds as he walks around.

His favorite spot. Perfect for nipping feet.

Ah, that looks like a nice place to rest. I think I’ll sit down...

 

[BigManAquatics]

"I am best laundry helper!!"

 

[Ouse]

As soon as you touch him he purrs. His purring sounds like buzzing. Even if you're picking him up to move him out of the way he starts purring. He's been snuggling with me for most of the day.

And yes, he's a food stealer...

Oakley and the new kitten don't get along very well. There have been times where I've had to stop Oakley from grabbing the kitten and biting him. The kitten won't eat with Oakley around; he growls at him.

They think they are BOTH the real baby

Oakley was quite preoccupied with being the "baby" of the house. Maybe this explains why he's gone all loving and calm...

I need someone to make me a statue of this. It needs to spout water from the mouths:

My room will never be tidy again. Every single morning the kitten breaks in, distributes all of the paper on the floor and trashes the Lego builds.

He also likes to climb up people’s legs using his claws. It hurts. Him and Oakley have become the best of friends; they sunbathe together and chase each other around the back garden.

Honestly it's on you for leaving papers lying around for the cats to reach.

How does he react when you scream? In my experience animals are discouraged by open and loud expressions of pain and usually stops doing that...

Oakley just came home from a trip via the back garden and is panting. It’s very hot outside; has been and will be. The kitten is about to pounce on him.

Honestly it's on you for leaving papers lying around for the cats to reach.

I should throw the paper away. They’re all drawings of maps but I don’t look at them too often.

I don’t scream when he climbs me. At most I say “ow!” or “get off.”

Well try to be more expressive. Make your "OW!" loud enough to kind of scare him. Cats aren't that great at understanding words, but screams of distress are quite universal between species, and most pets don't really want to hurt their owners.

Approach with caution.

Actually, scratch that. Don’t approach at all.

 

[Ouse]

The kitten just climbed up a high wall using his claws. Should I be afraid?
