How to Get Your Cat to Be Nice To You

It`s a well-known fact that cats are temperamental.

Like women.

They want attention sometimes, then they go off and do their own thing.

That`s the great thing about cats , they are independent, but

kind of sad when you want affection from them but they don`t want to give you any....

I found a GREAT way to get affection from cats...

TURN THE HEATING OFF!

When I`m sitting, they are unusually keen to sleep on my lap...

ohhhh... warm on human lap, ain`t it????

bit crowded, though... Aslan kicks Hime, waking her up....

Papoose Aslan!

Looks like a chubby baby.

I`m over the moon when I do get their affection, IT`S WORTH MORE!

That`s the magic of cats!!

Save energy, get some lovin from your fuzz ones!
That`s what I call killing two birds with one stone, or.....
more like "getting two cats with one stone!"

A Women`s Right!

Once again, here`s Princess Hime on her royal throne, The Royal Egg Cup.
Where she sits and rules her empire during the day.
(it`s a bit squashed from being loved so much! Luckiest Egg Cup in the world!)

She loves stuffed animals.
Well, sitting on them, at least!

She looooves getting flowers. She`ll sniff them out, even eat them sometimes.
Make sure you send her some for Valentine`s Day!

This is her favorite.

My fluffy new boots.
Of course she loves shoes! She`s a woman!!
She usually just uses them to sharpen her nails, but these are special.
We`ve got same taste, apparently!
She makes me proud.....

Ummmm, Hime, can I wear my new boots now?
Oh, sorry ! You were taking a nap... Ok,I just won`t wear them today....
I`m sorry, Your Majesty.

No? I can`t wear the boots today either?

She generously gave the radiator bed to Aslan though, kept the boots (mine, actually) for herself.
Now they have a bunk bed!
I guess I will just have to buy another pair of boots.....!

Happiness is just around the corner (in the kitchen)

Bowls aren`t just for goldfishes....

.... our wise Hime goes to The Bowl for meditation time!

Even when she was a teeny kitten, Princess was easy to please. No Marie-Antoinette here!

A.K.A. "Bag Kitty" .... first princess to live in a bag!

But
No Bowl,
No Bag (paper or plastic)
beats the mighty ....

EGG CUP!!!!!!!

"Feels so good to sit in,
I think I will make this the Loyal Hime Throne!"

Look at that content face.... Happiness comes in cups!
Long live Princess of the Egg Cup!!!

How "Intruder" became family

"GRRRRRRRRR! That`s my Living Room, fool!"

Hime didn`t like Aslan at all.
She followed him around, growling. Making sure he didn`t touch any of her stuff.
After all, she was the Princess of this household, worshipped , never had to share with anybody.

So when Hime refused him for 3 days, all the Hime worshippers (the humans in the house) was thinking,
"welll,,,,, maybe it is not working out, if our Princess is unhappy, he may have to go back"

But he is a bit fun to play hide-and-seek with.....

And he does have romantic eyes.....

One morning, I woke to find Hime sitting in the kitchen with Aslan, not growling.
It was if he had always lived with us.

We have been a family since.

The cat rescue people did say, it does take a couple of weeks for the first cat to take in the new cat. The new cat scent is different. But after a while, the new cat will start to smell the same, (in our case 4days) and they will start to accept each other.

So... I guess it means if you spend 4 days with anybody, cat or human, they become your family!!!

Cat garbage disposal

Aslan eats ANYTHING 247, from salads to rice, I even caught him lapping up used vegetable oil....
It`s handy having him around the kitchen, if I spill something, I just put Aslan there, and voila! It`s clean!!
Eating and no2-ing is what he does best!



Yawns like a sea lion after bit of garbage disposal action .....



but......... Can`t hang with the big dogs just yet!!!!!

awwww. Only just a baby after all!

Hime`s new brother??

"Who is this intruder????? "

"And in my favorite sunbathing spot?! How dare he ! Meeeeowwwww! "

It`s Aslannnnnnnn!!!!!!!

This was when I went to bring him to our house from Cat Rescue...
6 months old , ex-stray boy.

We`ve been thinking of getting Hime a friend and my hubby being believer in "if something`s good, more is even better!"

We went back to the Cat Rescue and they suggested that for 2nd cat, the cat should be around same age but younger than Hime, and different sex, to avoid conflict.
They said female cats rule inside the house and male cats, outside, so she will feel less threatened by a boy cat.

Aslan was found as stray cat, but they say he was probably raised in a household and left out because he was getting big. It is a shame they do that to such a sweet kitten.
He is definately used to humans, purring all the time!

Bed fit for Princess

Bought Hime a radiator bed, best 10 pounds I`ve ever spent in my life!

ohhhh.... so softttttt......

"hmmm? Did you want to see me? I was deep in sleep!"

Just waking up from Cat-Nap, her eyes barely open, hehehe!

Doing a little stretch! (not getting off the bed just yet!)

snuggling against the furrrr!
Bed 'n Blanket in one!

I`ve spent 10 Pounds on countless of unmeaningful things before,
bu look at how happy 10 pounds can make someone!
Next time you have little extra cash, don`t spend it on yourself,
spend it on your wise Kitty!
