Thread: My New Kitten!

Teddy update!

He's apparently super confident about everything...but is TERRIFIED of the hoover - even just hearing one! Hahaha. This might be a problem as I'm a bit of a hoovering fanatic and will probably be even worse when we add cat hair to the mix! He likes to spend his time eating and cleaning himself. Charming!

My boy is terrified of the hoover too! He'll just sit in a corner a shake until its turned off, such a wimp lol

At least your boy likes cleaning himself, Jiminy has only just got the hang of it, although hes still not keen on it and pulls some right faces when he gets fur stuck to his tongue

I wouldn't worry about that Stacey, I think it's a matter of course that landlords say no pets as it covers a multitude of sins, ie. pets could be large dogs that could tear the house to pieces, and it would be virtually impossible to stipulate "I will have only well behaved pets that don't wreck my flat on the lease", she would have told you if she really thought it would be a problem. The flat sounds fine, even if it is a bit close to Dave's sister lol, but I am sure it will be great. Oh and the bit about the hoover, Harry was scared to death of it at first now he follows me around and I swear would sit on it if he could, must be the vibration lol x

Found the same thing with the hairdryer, too, but now it's water off a ducks back to them both. Freyja's adjusted so well to the noise that she sits on the floor and just bats the cable; I'm pretty sure she's got a sixth sense and can tell when I'm drying in a rush - that's when she decides to sit on the cable so that I can't lift the ruddy dryer above my head!

I miss the days when she ran for the hills at the sound of the dryer... I had fewer bad hair days then!

Hector glares at the hoover, Roxy still runs either under our bed or into the bathroom! I wish they would run from the hairdryer I find it a little offputting when they sit there watching me! As for the straightners nightmare they play with the cable, so far I have not burnt myself.............

I love hearing everyone's stories!

Thankfully I don't spend ages blow drying my hair so I shouldn't have a problem there although I do have quite long and seemingly very chew-able hair...

Jiminy attacks my hair my it's wet, it's like half way down my back and he'll pounce on my back and it chew it

Yep, can identify with that too. I've got a thermal heat case for mine, that zips round three sides and before I found my new vocation as cat Slave, I could rest my hot straighteners on the open case with no fears. Now I have to battle to slip them in and out of the closed case, so that in the off chance Freyja pulls them down they'll land whilst still in the case!

That's a very fashion conscious kitty you've got there!

Ha, you're lucky Karen. Gracie views the sound of the hairdryer as an opportunity to come running from wherever in the house she is asleep to climb on my lap and demand fuss and stroking! I've now perfected the art of one hand hair styling though it's a right royal pain in the a*se! Typical Princess Gracie though, she's such a non-lapcat normally

Stacey, Teddy is such a cutie - I remember ears that size! Good luck with the flat hunting x
