And am I the only one who has noticed that this "week" has stretched rather a lot?
I think I will have to "discuss" this with beloved.
However, things go apace, she is clawing less (the seizing of paws works) and her yowls are no longer getting the instant gratification she is used to. Keeping her active during the day (which is not difficult as she is easily amused) makes her sleep during the night (you just have to DISTRACT her during the day. Constantly. Which is kind of annoyinbg - the whole point of a cat is you can almost ignore them as much as fish most of the time) and we're making sure she is kept out of rooms with fragile breaky things. She does still beg desperately at tables but SOMEONE *glare* is "accidentally" dropping bits of food to her.
She does have infinite curiosity and has had to be rescued from 4 cupboards now - but she's a cat. I can live with that. Oh and she eats about 4 times her own body weight every day. I've never seen a cat eat this much- or drink. None of our cats ever drink
Not satisifed with losing ground, however, the kittie has responded with a new weapon! If her yowling goes ignored for too long, she gathers her powers and uses:
The Whine.
This single, tiny noise is clearly the power of the gods. It isn't loud. It isn't annoying. It isn't even repeated. But this noise is the most pathetic, tragic, helplessly desperate little noise you have ever heard. No sound can match the sheer horrific tragedy of this little noise. The mere echo of this sound can cause so much guilt that only desperate willpower stops you committing suicide or joining a monastry somewhere to reflect on what a vile, evil person you are. It is important never to make eye contact with that sound, because the sight of the BIG blue eyes and the ears dropping pathetically, with that whine? Yeah, Stalin would crack in the face of that.
