Diary of a new cat owner

Posted on July 12, 2004 By admin 2 Comments on Diary of a new cat owner

Just thought I'd post a few things I've noticed from my 8 hours of cat ownership.

1. Cats have an amazing power to vanish into thin air when you're not looking. One minute there, turn your head, poof! gone.

2. My cat has found (and rolled around in) every dust bunny in my apartment. For a long-haired cat, that's a mess. I thought I had a fairly clean apartment. Apparently, I don't.

3. A crumpled ball of foil is the perfect cat toy.

4. Though he's warming up to me, I think my cat is scared of me. Every time I walk into the room, he hides under the futon.

More to come as time progresses.

    That's what [info]eniran told me. I'll let him get used to the place before trying that :P

Quote of the day

The one positive thing you could say about the bread products around him was that they were probably as edible now as they were on the day they were baked. *Forged* was a better term. Dwarf bread was made as a meal of last resort and also as a weapon and a currency. Dwarfs were not, as far as Vimes knew, religious in any way, but the way they thought about bread came close.
--(Terry Pratchett, The Fifth Elephant)
