*scratch*

My sis evonnetay who's flying over to Perth for abt 2 weeks decided to let her baby stay over at our place so that we could babysit him.. I didn't mind 'coz I've always loved animals and I know Aidan would be over the moon too. Was a li' worried that the feline could be a tad overwhelmed by the boy's attention & enthusiasm...


just in case you're wondering why the boy is always in superhero costumes,
Aidan loves to wear them as pjs :P

His name..Kit Kat! First thing he did? Ran under my couch! Think he wasn't used to a new environment and kept looking at us suspiciously. Didn't help that Aidan kept imploring him to come out and play! He finally came out after much coaxing (and cat treats) and he let us manja him a li' before he disappeared under the couch again. Aidan was so disappointed!

When I woke up this morning, the first thing I did was to look under the sofa. Yes..he was there..unfortunately, this was what I saw too..

Dajie!! You should have brought the scratching pole!! *ARGHHHHHHHHH*

*sigh* he ignored us the whole morning. had to call my sis over to come pacify him (and bring over the scratching pole). I think he was miffed at her..he was better after that and at least just now, he let Aidan play with him. Think it'll take a few days for him to get used to us..

*argh* my poor sofa!

heh..i just bought him the blue crocs and he lurveees it! We tried to get him to wear the beige one (coz the blue doesnt go with his attire) but he simply refused!

Yeah..the kids crocs are cute..it does look kinda strange on adults but i must say that it's really comfy. I tried it on but didn't buy lah :P

I love both dogs and cats..Cats are generally easier animals to keep. Very independent and clean! Dogs need more attention lah. They can be quite destructive too (if untrained)...

does your sis has 'felineway'? This plug in thingy that releases some hormones that will calm cats. Harmless to human!

completely OOP, but AIDAN IS SOOOOO CUTE!! *gush*

cats are like spoilt brats la. i think it's taking revenge for its abandonment. better than dogs though: they've been known to shit everywhere and chew all the shoes in the house when they're unhappy;.

Cats are by nature cautious and the more you pester the cat, the more it will ignore you. When we got Angel, it took her a few days to get used to us. She still doesn't like to be carried. Ah well.

Yes, a scratching pole is important. Otherwise the cat will scratch somewhere else, usually the sofa. Our Angel doesn't like the pole though, so our sofa is shredded.

actually, i like cats 'coz they have attitude and a a mind of their own! when i was staying with my sis, we used to have 3 cats (and one kept sleeping in my lingerie closet *arghh* - imagine underwear with fur!)..

yeah, i dont blame kit kat for what he did to our sofa coz he had no alternative..oh well, we were intending to get a new sofa set when we moved so what the heck :p

Re: woah
no lah..Kit Kat didn't 'attack' the sofa because he was angry. It's their nature to scratch with their claws..be it out of boredom or self defence.

i feel your pain. i've lived with one crazy cat for 4 years straight, and although i miss her sometimes, i definitely don't miss her claws. which is why i'm glad we had such old furniture! actually when reading the comments, all i could think of was "how is angelia going to fix that?!" because we were painting over the door frame that the cat scratched up, we had to re-upholster some of the cushions blahblah.. and when we cat sit for other people, they usually bring their cat carrier so the cat has a place to hide until they feel more comfortable, so it's our cat that does any damage not the visiting one heh. maybe you might try that?
