Title: The curious incident of the cat in the night time
Post by: Christine (Blip) on May 20, 2007, 10:57:43 AM
At 02.30 this morning we were woken by Blip launching an attack, complete with her rebel yowl and hissing, in our hall.

We staggered out of bed to investigate, at a complete loss as we were locked and secured for the night.  We found nothing unusual, except Blip sitting in the hall.

I didn't get back to sleep immediately and was turning over in my mind what Blip could have seen, so I got up and went back to have another look around.  I found Blip sitting on the table staring fixedly down the hall - at the carrier back full of old clothes I had put by the front door to take to the clothing bank this morning!  Looking at the bag in the light and shadows from the front door, I could imagine that I was looking at a truly enormous black cat - I'm sure that's what Blip must have thought.

I went to the bag and made a major production of rearranging it so that Blip could see it wasn't a cat.  She settled down after that, but I swear she looked embarrassed  :-[

Bless her.

It must have been mad cat night last night .... I went upstairs to find Rossi up on her tiptoes with her tail all fluffed up like a loo brush and hissing at something in the bathroom.  There is a step down into the bathroom and she refused to go in.  I couldn't work out what she was so wary of until I saw my metal link belt on the floor .... she was convinced it was a snake and wouldn't go anywhere near it ... even after I picked it up to show her it was "safe" .... she just ran off downstairs all fluffed up!

This morning I tried to reintroduce her to the belt and again she ran rushed off and is clearly wary of it!  :rofl:  Least I know if she ever meets a real snake there's no chance she'll be bitten.
