Condo Dwelling

I never really considered the kitty condo by the window a "place to hang out." I just thought of it as Squeakers' domain and not mine.Unless you count the time, the day before Squeakers went to the bridge. Mistress was so involved with something else, and also probably worrying about Squeakers, finding jobs, the holidays, all the trivial things humans fret about, that she needed to check on Squeakers. So I jumped onto the top level of the condo and shocked her!It didn't save Squeakers' life though :-(Lately, once in awhile, Mistress has put me on the top of the condo, just put me there! Like, what am I supposed to do up here now? Start knitting?? She says it was so that I would figure out I like it. .. but I think it was because she didn't want me underfoot. Actually, and I wouldn't tell her this, but she actually had a good idea! *gasp* She was. .. . r-r-r-right! *bigger gasp*I LIKE IT! Yes kids and cats. .. She likes it! Sandy likes it!I went there last night before Mistress left the house (there's a level 3 sex offender in the neighborhood and she was going to a meeting about him!) and I was there when she came back, two hours later, and the only time I really came out was when my tummy started to rumble! I came out to eat in the "community dining area" set for tenants of Kitty Condo (okay, kitchen, where I always eat) and after that, I went back to MY condo. .. now it's MY domain! I feel I have Squeakers' purrrmission to take over the housing, after all, I took over her Mommy even before she left! :-)I'm back there today. I came out last night to accompany the Mistress to her sleeping quarters (okay, bed) and when she got up (finally!!) I came out, spent some quality time with her, then went back to my condoI like how that sounds. .. MY CONDO!! Rent free. .. yeah!Actually, it's a purrrfect place to watch the Mistress clean and make a fool out of herself!What more could a cat want?!I never really considered the kitty condo by the window a "place to hang out."

Don't Ask Me To Be Cute!

Mistress came home and looked for me. .. but couldn't find me!I was somewhere where I never really go (that she knows of) but where Squeakers used to sit all the time. . . On top of the toilet seat (lid down, of course, I don't wanna go body surfing!)She gasped and ran.Then I ranThen she pouted because I ran!What am I, a show cat? Expected to purrrform on cue?She said she wanted to get the camera. .. oh no! She said I looked so cute up there because she got a new tank set for her birthday 6 weeks ago. For kitties who don't remember or know what tank sets are, they are really hard to find and have to be ordered from a catalog. Then when it came, the tank part didn't fit and it had to go to a taylor shop and then Mistress' mom had to come over AGAIN and put it on and cut the hole in it. .. don't know why, but there had to be a hole in it.It's nice and soft and a lot fluffier than the thing that was covering the porcelain water holder before, and it coverst he middle part so I can rub against it all I want!Squeakers used to call that her "thinking place" and she'd even fall asleep there (figures) until she was shooed off.Now she keeps putting me back there and asking me to pose. For what? Stuffonmycat? Snuzzy? The Cat's Meow? Cheezburger? Well, if they want pics of me sitting on a toilet. . .er, "thinking place" . . .furget it! Now cuz she wants it. . .I won't do it.
