Unnatural Prey - May 1, 2015 at 7:43 am

Dear Matilda,

USB cables do not taste good. They also do not need to be pulled out of the computer and stashed under the bed (although at least you seem to have some grasp of electrical safety).

Please go back to sitting on the windowsill and your trash-talking competition with the magpies. It’s safer.

Regards,
Mum.

Felix Vouchers - February 11, 2015 at 10:43 am

Dropped another 168 vouchers into Cats Protection: 7 more cans of cat food for their fosters. If you have any spare, please drop them into your local CPS shop, as most branches are collecting the vouchers now.

(For every 24 vouchers, Felix will donate one free can of cat food to Cats Protection, so if you aren’t using the vouchers please donate them).

Details here: https://www.worldoffelix.com/reward.aspx?id=3-18

Stephen vs. laptop

Laptop - type: MSI, Weight: under 1kg
Stephen - type: feline, weight: 7.5kg
One is on my lap, one wants to be on my lap. Too bad the second doesn't care if I move the first. He just treads all over it.
So at 08:00a.m. this morning there was a cry of:


"No, not my power button. You. Little. Sod."

from me and many loud purrs from Stephen.
All I can say is thank heavens for hibernate mode. I've spent too much of this morning with my cat and my laptop both asleep on my lap!
(This is the same cat that bookmarked xkcd so I shouldn't be surprised...)

Blowing hot air - February 7, 2015 at 9:32 am

Dear Matilda,

You learned to turn the heater on by headbutting it? It explains the last few days, when DH and I both thought we were going mad, but this is not entirely a good thing. Yes, you sauntering in, thumping the heater with your head and settling in front of it as I stared was not something I see every day. No, it’s not something all cats do.

Sadly it’s not going to work much longer, as we’re now turning it off at the plug as well, and I’ve moved the plug to a socket out of your reach.

(Please, please don’t learn to transfer that skill to wall plugs. Please.)

Regards,
Mum
