Title: I've redeemed myself
Post by: berties mum on December 01, 2007, 20:39:03 PM
For all the people who were appalled at me not having bought Bertie an Ikea cat tent when he has such a love of boxes and bags, I would like to announce that a fine red example of an Ikea cat tent is now hiding in the airing cupboard ready for a certain ginger monster to enjoy on Christmas Day.  And Bella is getting Da Bird  :wow:

Going on past birthdays/ Christmases, they will either a) swap pressies, b) play with the packaging or c) much prefer some cheap and nasty toy mouse bought by one of my friends for a fraction of what the cat tent cost  :rofl:

Redeemed yourself? You're having a laugh at Bertie's expense surely?  The poor boy is virtually the only Purrs cat without an Ikea tent but now, to add insult to injury and rub salt into the wound you're making him wait until Christmas for it?

Couldn't agree more!  And to post that information publicly too so that all the other cats can laugh it his misfortune.  Shame on you :o

I would like to say, in my defence since I appear to be today's Purrs villain, that Bertie is spoiled rotten every day and if I give him a cat tent when it's not even Christmas, he'll expect a cat palace on Christmas Day  :rofl: :rofl:
