So, even though she’s pretty sneaky from above, she’s unable to land ninja-style. I swear, if I lived anywhere near a fault line, I’d be looking to the Richter scale. When we do, it usually involves the sound of a rough cat tongue licking a pan that once held meat of some sort.Īlthough she’s mostly quiet while hunting noms, she jumps off the counter with a massive thud that shakes practically the entire house. Occasionally, we’ll hear her - but not that often. She silently creeps around on the countertop, stopping for the occasional smell or taste of something that catches her fancy. She’s a big girl, but has honed her counter-cruising skills over the years. Oh, sweet Saffy - you know not the bounty of your mass. ![]() Not hard! C’mon, they’re just asking for it! 4. I know it’s probably mean, but I can’t help it: When I see a little bit of kitty sticking out, I automatically have to grab or flick it. It seems to me that they tend to forget the tail more than anything else. I love it when cats think they’re completely covered, yet just a bit of tail, ear or paw is visible. ![]() The circling shark doesn’t even hide around a corner so we don’t see her telltale fin. We try and distract her and shoo her away, but she always returns. After she’s finished gobbling up her own chow, she starts moving in on the other two cats’ meals, especially Phoebe’s. Saffy loves her food … as well as everyone else’s. And the top of my dresser looks like it’s been visited by the likes of Godzilla. I’ll flip on the light and see her standing frozen, mid-destruction. I’ll sometimes awake to the sound of a photo frame falling or small boxes of baubles hitting the ground. The trouble is, she’s not exactly the most quiet shopper. Phoebe knows there are lots of “pretties” on my dresser and enjoys appraising the merchandise when she thinks I’m sleeping or in another room. ![]() When Mom reached in to reclaim the bracelet, Phoebe promptly and authoritatively walloped her hand. Once, she took off with my mom’s turquoise bracelet and dove into one of her nylon kitty cubes. If she can make off without our noticing, she’ll squirrel it away behind the sofa or in one of her other kitty hideaways. Even when she was a kitten, she’d take off with jewelry, pens, straws, and other doodads.
