Kitty wars begin!
Apr. 12th, 2007 12:24 amDear Beloved may have to be throttled for doing something very very very stupid.
He has agreed for us to look after my brother’s cat for a week.
Doesn’t sound onerous? No, we are cat people. We love cats. We always have cats. Cats are amazing.
But Mia is a world away from our happy moggies. Mia is a pedigree Bengal. I don’t know if it is her inbreeding, but she is highly skittish, moody and changeable.
She is also appallingly behaved. She steals, she claws things, she’s careless with her claws when running around, playing or just laid down. She plays at inappropriate times (3:00am, for example), she yowls, she shreds things. She is a pest. None of my cats ever do these things. I think she’s just been overindulged because she is really beautiful (some pictures below, but they REALLY don’t do her justice).
So, either I retrain her in a week, or one of us may be dead... let the kitty wars begin!
