The Timing Of Cats........

[gness]

....isn't accidental....... or just by chance......

Cats do it casually but deliberately........cats are like that....and it's even more of a surprise when you don't own a flaming cat!

I'm clearing out the garage....being ruthless........but I noticed an earth wire hanging loose down the wall......I must have knocked it during the day......

I got a screw driver and decided to attach it to the nearest suitable looking thing you could attach a loose wire to......which was a copper pipe with a stray little clamp and screw......quite confident it'd be safe......nothing to worry about......so I sat on my little steps and started to wrap the bare bits of the electric wire around the screw........

And that was when a cat I'd never, ever seen before crept into the garage and decided to jump onto my lap, underneath my outstretched arms.....

It was a pure white cat.....which is the same bloodless colour my face still is...... :-(

?

[gness]

When you are messing with the electrics, Eccles......you don't want the fright of a cat you don't own suddenly appearing as if from nowhere and jumping onto your lap.....?

[tonyav]

Yep, cats are like that, gness. A cat ( very young kitten )adopted me many years ago by going to sleep in my car !.

[EcclesCake]

But surely you switched the power off beforehand?

[gness]

Eccles.....had I switched off the whole street it would still have scared the life out of me.....

[whiskeryron]

It is a well known fact that all cats have to learn certain rules from the age old " Book of Caterismic Knowledge " before they can think of owning a human. The very first rule is SURPRISE, I am sure that part of their training is overseen by post nine life Ghost Cats who it would seem only appear to people wearing clean knickers. !!!

[EcclesCake]

Sorry, I just can't see where the drama is coming from.

[wolf63]

I think that they learn lots from their mum, then they go to a place like this




after that they go and find a human.

[gness]

Mmmm....my clean knickers are to blame then, Ron.....

Tony.....that's a bit like how I got my first husband....... ;-)

Wolf...yes..this cat was there......!

Now, Eccles......as you know perfectly well, there is no drama......it's me......a little bit of fun from my adventures of the day on ChatterBank.......and it opens a thread up for others to join in with their little bit of fun......
You could join in too, you know...... :-)

[Patsy33]

They seem to know don't they gness? I can imagine your thoughts, feelings at the time.. ..Evil gness!

[aelmpvw]

i suppose the pure white cat is now a mix of white and beaujolais

[ummmm]

I swear my cat loves being kicked. He'll jump in front of me when I'm walking (trying to kill me) and he'll yelp when I accidentally kick him...but yet being the stupid cat he is he'll jump from one piece of furniture to another...miss, smack his face...and not make a noise.

His yelps are just to send me on a guilt trip...

[gness]

They do, Patsy....had all day to come into the garage....but no...chooses its moment.... :-)

Ael.....I was stone cold sober....not a bottle open......before the cat arrived.....now I'm a little squiffy..........x

This cat didn't hang around long enough for the guilt trip bit, Ummmm......just a little (loud) sweary word....although.....

Many pure white cats are deaf......if it wasn't before it is now..... ;-)
