Mice in the Bed…Oh My Cat!!!
okay, okay, okay…..
ya all know I have been kind’a on my own for a long time..untill I got my forever home this Jan. I know, I know…wooo hooo!!
So, with so much of my 5 years probably spent on the lamb…so to speak…hiding from humans, cats, dogs, coyotes and so on…given all that I sort’a forgot how to just “PLAY“..go figure, huh?!
A “play-less” cat…Oh Cat! Tell me it isn’t so!!
Anyways…that’s one of the things my huMom and huDad helped me re-learn…totally..and I am pretty good at it most of the time…I just am still afraid that I can only do it in our bedroom…not sure how to play in the other bigger rooms…although…………tee heee………I do play by myself at night…try to be quiet…but Oh Cat! Ya should hear how loud I can make my paw patter runnin’ up and down the stairs… then there’s this really long hall way..all HARDWOOD floors…MEOW!! Great noise! errrr…ummm. sorry Dad n Mom…(maybe)
Ok…so the game me and Mom play most…you guys probably all have done this since kittenhood…but I was SHOCKED the first time I did it
MICE IN THE BED….OH MY !!!!
First…you totally pretend to see absolutely nada..nothing…nope..can’t see it..minding my own business thank you very much…..
Now…show some interest…stare….if you stare long enuff…trust me…it moves!
Nowwww we’re talkin’…see it?..see it? OMC…ya just have’ta grab at it….
aiiii yiiii meeeoowww…then ya have to bite it…..
getting to the reallllyy good part now…..ya have it…but now…just hang on and pretend you just don’t even know what’s goin’ on…like ignore it and be aloof…
noww ya have it….pretend ya just don’t care…those mice in the bed are just a figment of your imagination and you know it….back to ignoring it allll…aloof
and that my friends is how you play MICE IN THE BED…OH MY!!!!
Gotta dash..nom nom time…can hear hear Dad banging on the dish to get me to come…so cute…he tries so hard…have to keep my distance for a bit longer though…ya know…training him…come on …you cats know how it works, right??!!
