Since Christmas the two-legses have been disconcertingly active indoors. On Christmas day there was first the crinkly sound of paper to disturb my sleep, followed by the wafting odour of roast turkey and then, heaven knows why, the bipeds started leaping about in front of the television. Mr two-legs pulled a muscle because of this and spent the next day watching Mrs two-legs doing step exercises. It was something to do with wees. Now, I always thought weeing was a cat's daily duty and one that should be done expressly outside, but they were playing with wee indoors and being particularly flamboyant about it too!
I folded my arms and watched from a safe distance, probably with my ears back and certainly a disdainful look on my face. On top of this disruptive behaviour, there's been the weather outside. The vacating of bowel and bladder where one has to find a suitable garden spot to fashion out a make shift toilet are often difficult enough at the best of times but at 5 degrees below....I'm afraid it has to be an on the surface operation amidst much steam, in a hurry and without ones normal dignity. Don't look back old boy, the steam will subside, I think to myself and make haste for the cat-flap.
Who would have thought the two-legses would have chosen such a cold day to be hard hearted. The cat-flap seemed as though it was locked! I couldn't get in! I bashed and shouted.
"Wait a minute!" called Mr two-legs from inside, "It's frozen shut, old fellah."
He bashed it from his side and eventually it flipped "bonk" into my face. That made me so cross I gave it a good shove back at him. Well, pretty soon we were playing Wii table tennis with the flap and Mr two-legs, so into playing Wii games, began shouting out the score. "Your serve," he called excitedly whilst peering through the frosty aperture. I served.... and I got him! "Clonk!" right in the face just like on the Wii! Now he's got a black eye as well as a pulled shoulder muscle.
Is there a catch the mouse game on the Wii, I wonder?
