It must have been thundering. Or else they snuck up on the bed while I was sleeping.

I remember there was a BIG thunderstorm. Clyde made a good barrier for the storms, whether he knew it or not.

I miss Tilly. Well, sort of. She kept the cushion up so I could lie on top of it. :)  We all wanted to be in the same room as my mom.

Quick Bio:
-pound cat

Coloration:
Brown-Patched Tabby

Likes:
cuddling with Caroline when she's reading or sleeping, sleeping in my bed,

Pet-Peeves:
I HATE THUNDERSTORMS!!!!!!!!!! They scare me!!!!! And then there's being disturbed by other animals or people. I don't like feeling vunerable, which I do feel a lot.

Favorite Toy:
Catnip or shoelaces.

Favorite Nap Spot:
My bed on Caroline's bay window, the basket at the end of Caroline's bed, one of the baskets on the kitchen counter

Favorite Food:
I'm very picky. But I do like my morning whipped cream, although I've been getting cornered in the mornings now to be given my thyroid meds before my whipped cream - very unsettling.

Skills:
Squeaking when I'm scared.

Dwells:
indoors

Arrival Story:
I was squashed into that cage at the Humane Society of Wisconsin with that diva Fritzie way back when. For some reason my girls thought that we were inseperable. There just wasn't the room to fight is all. MOL Well, as long as we didn't get into each other's faces we were ok. But she was not my favorite cat by any means. Actually, I probably would have been happiest by being an only cat, but I have to admit to sorta loving these lugs. I was originally adopted my the younger of the two sisters, and a few years later went with her to Madison, but when she and her boyfriend (now husband) got a second cat - a young man from the pound, I could not stand him. Kept beating him up every chance I got!! Even as he got bigger than me I had him running scared. HA! Well, that got me deposited back at the house with the rest of the family and the other cats (including that darned diva) and dogs. Ewww. But, I must say, the older sister became my favorite person in the whole wide world! She's good to be with because she's a little less active than everyone else so I can actually relax with her and get a little cuddle action. Even though she was Fritzie's mom, she has a big enough heart for me too. When my other mom visits she always seeks me out to say hi too.

Bio:
I'm an old girl, and I feel every moment of my age. I have hyperthyroidism but I barf up the pills, the ear salve irritates me, and the flavored drops disgust me. Even when they're mixed with milk, chicken broth or whipped cream. Throw that stuff up too. Actually, I do a lot of throwing up. Big massive quantities of it. I usually eat a lot at one time because I'm so hungry, and then about 1/3rd of the time within about 30 minutes it's all out of my tummy again. grrrr. My mom even tries to limit how much I eat at a time, but I manage to sneak more behind her back. But now I've lost some weight - in part probably due to not keeping my food down all the time, but also because I have kidney failure due to the hyperthyroidism too. But I still love to cuddle. So while I still have probably a year left on this earth I'm going to cuddle cuddle cuddle!! And hide hide hide!

I wanted to peek out to say thank you. I think the coast is clear, no one is around.

I don't know who, if it's just one kind person, or if it's many, but THANK YOU FOR ALL THE TREATS!!! I'm enjoying whisking them away to the corner to nibble them, when I think no one is looking!

Squeaks and Meows!
Harriet
