Bunty Speaks

Unfairly maligned?

I'd just like to refute my sisfur Arrow's assertion in her diary that I am a bit of a wet sock. I'm a very brave cat, it's just that bad things happen around me...on Saturday Mummy's friend Craig came over with the Whipper Snipper and lopped all the weeds. Mummy couldn't understand why I wasn't around for a few hours. Craig stayed for a while and gave my fat sister Zephyr a tummy rub but he had to go without seeing me and then Mummy went up the shops. When she came home she was greeted by me meowing pitifully from the roof - and a hot tin roof it was too. I'd bolted up there when Craig started the Whipper Snipper and I couldn't work out how to get down again. However the rustling of shopping bags resulted, as Mummy says, in a temporary boost to my IQ and I magically reappeared on the ground!
Then yesterday she accidentally shut the door on my tail. I yelped and ran into hiding and wouldn't come out even for dinner. Again Mummy knew just what to do - get the chopping board out and cut up chicken for her dinner. I magically reappeared again!
Today was even worse - the man from next door AND his foreman AND the pest control guy were in and out all day. (We've had flying ants in the wall and they were grossing Mummy out.) By the time Mummy came home I was again nowhere to be found - but once more, food worked its marvellous spell and after the bowls had been down for half an hour - ping! Reappearance of the Buntster!
See how brave I am?

One Better Than Arrow

Arrow thinks she's so good because she caught a rat. Well, I went out hunting the other night, and I got Mummy a special present. I was waiting on the doorstep with it the next morning, looking forward to hearing Mummy's cries of delight when she opened the door to find a big dead rabbit waiting there for her. Actually, what she said sounded something like "Ewwww", but I could have been mistaken.

Cold Turkey

It's finally happened - we've run out of Feliway and Mummy hasn't got any money to buy any more because she hasn't worked for the last few weeks. Oh no - does this mean Orkney and Zephyr are gonna pick on me? I'll try my hardest not to pee in bad places, but if they upset me I can't be held responsible for my actions!
Maybe Mummy will put extra Meow Flowers in the drinking water. Or maybe I'll just hide behind Arrow.
