Reason # 67 why Roxie scares me
When we received Marilyn's babies, China Doll and Randy--who is now known as
Master Philip or Fella for short--we knew we had to acclimate the family to a new feeding structure, to the chagrin of the other spoiled darlings. The Fella is a dignified, toothless gent who needs canned food, ordinarily given the others as a treat to break the monotony of the four different kinds of dry we serve them. And so we have an envy issue, not to mention a challenge to the intellect of Roxie, our most devious little girl. She'd gotten onto the counter a few days ago, got a can of Fancy Feast out of the bag, and went to work. Louie was in the, um, reading room and heard a "ping...ping" punctuated by abrupt trills. When he was through with his, um, book, he went out to find Madame holding the can down with one paw, and picking at the little ring-thing with the claws of the other. Madame Roxie would do well with the CIA or Scotland Yard. She already is dressed like James Bond out for a night in the baccarat room. Blessed be, Baha -- Message posted via http://www.catkb.com |

I'd ask him to get in touch with Roxie, but I don't have his number, and I suspect she does. Wonder if it would affect his clearance if they knew he used to wear my hand-me-down clothes as a child? Fortunately for him, I dressed in Jeans and T-Shirts before most girls did. Jo |

I've got an envy thing going on here too, trying to put weight back on Abelard, he is getting a can a day in private (because he eats so slow), but no one is trying to open cans. I usually put down three cans for the rest of the clowder to share, so they don't feel so left out. They don't finish it all, so Abelard may get some more later if he wants it - and he usually does. He's making up for all the weeks when I had to force tiny amounts into him to keep him alive. |

She didn't try to pull the tab (although I wouldn't have put it past her) but she did manage to get a can down off the pantry shelf and scoot it to the middle of the kitchen floor where she sat, waiting with it, until I walked in Jill |

Whenever we bring the (3!!) cases home each week at least one of my will jump up and rub all over the case (I wonder if they soak them in catnip juice??!). LOL Hugs, CatNipped |

The cats would knock loaves of bread off of the kitchen counter and Konrad would take the wrappers off. Then they would all feast on bread fresh from the store. Persia was waiting for a servant to open the can. - Will in New Haven |
