Gus's most interesting life

I'm hiding

Well i'm hiding at the moment. Mum has called and called me but she can't find me. I know she's really worried but i'm not coming inside. Bob (the feral grey kitty that she feeds) was waiting for me and attacked me as i was coming home from my daily walk around the house. Mummy came rushing around and looked silly calling "Gus" Come on boy where are you. But i didn't come
She even came home at lunch looking for me. The guys on the street putting in the new wires must think she's crazy. Well she is a CCL after all but walking around calling Gus... Where are you baby.
She's gone back to work now and i'm still hiding. I bet she's sitting there chewing her nails in worry.
And i know what she'll say to me when i go hom tonight." Gus are you alright boy. You know you're making me go grey!!!!!"
Then she'll lock the cat door again and then i'll break it and she'll have to get another one...

It's My BIRTHDAY

Gosh i can't believe it! It's my birthday! I'm 5 years old! Wow!
Mum gave me a tin of tuna and a big cuddle this morning! Yah for mum! She rocks!
I must say i did well in finding this house! I get an electric blanket left on all day and night if its cold and the heated tiles on all day (even when mum's not there) with my bean bag on them! It's so nice!
She makes me nests around the house so that i can sleep in more than one place and be comfortable! it's so cool!
I have so many toys it's unbelievable! And she's moved my favorite toy to in front of the heater (as we are coming up to winter) and i love that! Mum plays with me daily in it! Okay it's a box! A big box that mum has cut holes out of so i can put my paws through and she sticks the feather things in and out of the holes and i pounch on them! it's the best toy ever! I sleep in it! It's got toys with catnip in so i can rub my face! It's the best!
We i'd just like to thank Catster wishing me a happy birthday! That was so nice of them and i'd like to wish all the other 360 odd cats that are having a birthday today too A Very Happy Birthday! I hope you day is as great as mine!
Lots of love Gus xxxxx meow

Whoops

Hi

I know it's been ages since i last wrote. I left everyone wondering if the i got the drain out or not. I did! The next day! Oh and I escaped from the house! I held mum accountable for everything that had happened to me and I wouldn't go near her.
For her part, she worried about me when every time i left the house, she took me back to the vet twice more and she feed me every little treat she could think of.

The stitches are out, mum stopped feeding me antibiotic's morning and night and my fur is growing back!
I finally forgiven her! Only because i'm feeling so much better.
And she promised not to take me back to the vet!

Well summer is on it's way. The days are getting longer and so is the lawn. Mum is meant to mow it but after her fall (i had nothing to do with it) she hasn't been able to do certain things. She's got a very badly bruised tail bone! But i've never seen no tail on her. I think she's lying about having a tail bone. She's not even that furry!
Getting back to the grass and it's length - truth be known "i'm loving it!" I've made a couple of nests and i sit there watching the birds!
I promised mum i wouldn't catch any but i watch then and talk to them. Tell them what i would do if they came to close. Show them my teeth and say "come closer little birds" but their smart little things and just sit on the fence and tweep at me.
If i remember rightly - once caught i let them go inside the house to frighten mum when she arrives home after work and releases them back outside. They in turn poop on her paintings.

Well i'm getting tired now. I think it's around the time Mum comes home. This means i need to be back on the bed and looking like i'm sleeping.
Cat-ch up soon
