Birthday: August 1st 2007 Coloration: Black and White Likes: Having her tummy tickled, trying to escape out of the window, bird watching, christmas decorations, shiny things (she's like a magpie) Pet-Peeves: Being brushed, other cats coming into the garden, having her claws clipped, travelling in the car (she howls!) Favorite Toy: A little chicken that we got with an Easter egg last year! She also has a little rabbit which she adores and carries around with her. Also anything shiny and glittery. Favorite Nap Spot: On Andy's pillow or on the back of the sofa Favorite Food: She likes Temptation cat treats - foodwise she is really only supposed to have Hills Furball Formula though. Skills: She makes some fantastic buzzing sounds and is pretty good at climbing ladders and standing on two legs (she thinks she's people) Dwells:
indoors Arrival Story: Aurora came to live with us when she was 10 months old. We don't know very much about her past, but we don't think it was so great and she's been moved around from pillar to post. She used to be called Lucky but now she is called Aurora (Roo for short), after our favourite Foo Fighters song! Lives Remaining: 8 of 9 Forums Motto: Queen of all she surveys.... The Groups I'm In: Welcome Waggin' for Dogsters and Catsters I've Been On Catster Since:
Wow it's been a long time since I blogged here! Life has been going along pretty well for me - oh except in April when Andy + Rachel went to Australia for a month and didn't take us with them!!! Can you imagine being left behind? And we didn't even get to stay at home, we had to go to a cattery, with other cats. *shudder*
It took me a long time to forgive that.
Then a stray cat turned up in our garden and Andy + Rachel started feeding it! With my food! The audacity!
Still today is my fourth birthday, so live and let live for today at least.
Thank you catster for my birthday wishes. I'm hoping to get extra treats this evening!
Well today is my brother, JP's birthday. He is two. With age has come no wisdom whatsoever. He is still as stupid as he ever was. The other day he ate some salt. Who eats salt? Can he not tell it tastes bad? Of course it made him ill all over the living room floor. Typical.
So today is his birthday. Everyone is making a fuss of him and I am being ignored. I hate his birthday.
However, there is a tin of tuna waiting for his birthday party tonight and half of it has my name on, so it's not all bad!
Well so many things have been happening since I last wrote that I don't know where to start!
Well let's start with this, today is my birthday!! I'm 3 years old, so a proper qualified grown up cat. I don't think anyone really knows when my actual birthday is so it's today. My little brother JP is 2 years old on Thursday so apparently we're having a joint party on Friday....
Andy has bought a new camera - a Nikon D5000 whatever that means. He has taken some gorgeous photos of both me and JP so I'll get him to post them on my page later on.
The house has been moved around completely as well which is most disconcerting for a cat. I have had to remark all my territories. Sometimes I'm up all night doing it. It's tiring work for everyone because I don't think Rachel sleeps very well when I'm up all night buzzing around....
Basically they have moved the bedroom to the back of the house and turned the master bedroom into the office so there is more space downstairs. I think they have done this to stop JP chewing the wires, which is his new habit. Poor Rachel didn't have a laptop for weeks because he chewed through the wires and shortcircuited it. Honestly he has no respect for other people.
So that's it from me for today. I'm off to enjoy the rest of my birthday!
