Watch It Wednesday!

Rez up to his shenanigans again

Rezki is very good at playing pretend. I don't know where he got this particular skill from as he was a commcat before he came to live with us. Almost always he would be the one who would sneak on someone and without warning slap them  or he would just beat on the cubby repeatedly to the disgust of the kitty in it. Then as though he had done nothing wrong, he would move away or sit and pretend that all is right with the world.

In this picture, he came up onto the red chair and meditated whether it was worth his while to slap Bujang. But I saw him and called him name REZKI lou enough for Bujang to hear. He stiffened and decided just for that time, he would sit quietly and pretended to be looking at me instead. He is a real rascal and he wonders why no one wants to play with him.

Shenanigans!

I fear san is not telling the truf. I have been very good this past week and have sat quietly, minding my own business. I have also taken a liking to sitting with grandma as she is usually still and calls my name kindly. Of course she can't remember my name and calls me 'Cat". But I know she means me as she always calls out "Cat" when I sit with her.

Ok. Maybe san is right. I sometimes have no control over my impulses and I think it was Tanaka's fault for not minding me. I was just here for a bit, okay for more than a bit looking at him looking out. I was thinking of jumping on him but I heard san calling "REZKI" and so I stopped. san always calls me REZKI if she is warning me about something that I should not do and I know how to listen to that. At other times she just sings out my name Rez~~~~~~. I know then that I am not in trouble.

If you come any nearer to me Tanaka...

Saturday Easy

Today is acupuncture day for both Bujang and I. Eventhough the post is for Saturday Easy, I am not making it easy for san to get me. Hiding under grandma's bed is one of the safest places to be and I plan to be under there until the time for the appointment to the needle doctor. Wish me luck everyone. 

Saturday Easy will be for me as I will not be going to any doctor. I plan to catch more sunpuddles later on. I managed to touch Akira's butt yesterday and got time-out here. So it wasn't such a bad time-out. She screamed at me and san told me to behave. It was not my fault if she was not looking out for herself! The time-out was worth the shenanigan as I had never been able to do that!! It was so worth 2 exclamation marks. 

Rainy Days

 Oh-oo..watch it everyone. He's OUT hunting...

 SHENANIGAN TIME! HOORAY!

 Hmmm...hmmmm...hmmmm

 OH! GOT IT!

Help me please. Give me some patience~~~~~

Shenanigan-Time

When its shenanigan- time, I always make sure that the coast is clear and I appear to be 'innocently just watching'. This is a must as human beans are furry good at catching a cat who 'just wants to have fun!'. My motto for shenanigan-time is 'if you act innocent, you are!' Then I do what a cat must...

I sit in front offur the little gerl's room. I am doing nuffing! Just sitting. Hahaha...BUT I watch her effury move in case I need to persuade her to 'have fun'. I am a good bruffer who is looking out for his little sisfur. san told me that the gerl is older than I am but I don't fink so. I am BOSS so offur course I am older!

Sometimes san tells me to leave her alone. I usually do as she says when I know I am in trouble but neffur fear. I know san cannot resist my purty face...

Yesterday I was quite successful at getting my own pot of grass. I persuaded my little sisfur to run and so san had to put me in a time-out but I looked at her sadly. Then san gave me my pot of grass. I think this is good training fur san too. This is a universal cat secret - make your person reward you for the naughty fings that you did. I am quite good at this!

 Yum..yummm...yum...

san always gives me a pot just for myself as I lurve grass. This is biograss and san buys the seeds from the petshop. I do not like the wheatgrass from the supermarket. san says the reason I like my own pot of grass  might be because I like the smells of the sun and soil on it. It's also much softer than the wheatgrass. She needs to plant a new pot every 2 weeks.

san also broughted out our new cat seat as our red tent has gone to 'the dogs!'. She bought it using the many many papers that she had. san told me they were vouchers she got from buying us the many tins of cat food that we need. My bruffer Bujang sat in it first. I was not pleased as I wanted to sit in it. So when Bujang got up to eat, I activated my shenanigan button and....

 GOT IT. HURRAY!
For those offur you who are furry observant, yes, that grey cat behind me used to belong to my bruffer Toro who is now at the Bridge. san put him there so he can always be wif us.

Offur course I was furry tired after all that and had a good night's sleep dreaming of tomorrow....

san says sorry fur the blurry pic ...

Shenanigans!

It's time for SHE-NA-NI-GANS again! Mine and err...san says Ms Akira's also.I fink she is learning from me, her bruffer about shenanigans. san put this purty box out. I know she meant it fur me as I am the resident cat-in-the-box. So my brain said -Its TIME. I fink if I sit in here, the little gurl will not see me.

 Hmmm...lets see if she comes close to the door!

I wonder where she is?

 (Ms Akira is sitting at the far left just watching him)

Tanaka would sometimes sit on the green boxes and wait for her. I think he thinks if he does this, she may come close to the gate and he can ambush her right there. Before, she had come quite close but she realised in time that he was hiding behind the wall close to the gate or on top of  the green boxes! So now she has taken to doing this;

Taking a nap away from the gate. She spends quite some time in this cubby hole as it  is hidden from view. Maybe the experiment is not working out so well as the purpose of me putting the gates was for them to look at each other and m_a_y_b_e be a little more friendly. 

Napping...zzzz

For 2 days in a row, she has taken to hiding in here when its time for her warm salt bath so she has not had any. She is a clever kitty I must say. But as she is in here and not under her blanket, I think she may be a little cooler which is a good thing as well.

Shenanigans!

san shud have thot much harder when she decided to keep my toy in this box! When she was on the phone, I went into the box to look fur it! Maybe I should be an Explorer or a PI! I have skills!

 I dug deep into the box. I can smell it! But it was underneath some of san's smelly books. I needed a plan.

So I asked san nicely if she could take the toy out fur me. san always says yes when I ask nicely. I chirp at her, not meow! THAT is the surprise attack - CHIRPING!

Since she already helped me to recover my toy, she decided to play! THAT, ladies and gentlemen is the power of the CHIRP.

 We played for bit. It was sneak and peek and pounce. Marvellous!

After that I rewarded san with a nice picture of me just hagning out on da couch! san did not think it was a shenanigan of mine. She thot I was furry cute. Ha!

The best way to deal with a problem is ...

ignore it...

not look straight into its eye...Or

IGNORE IT!

HAH! I WIN...


Where did he go?

Bujang minding his own business after the fiasco...

Tanaka's greatest weapon and one he had figured out all by himself was the power of eye contact or NON eye contact as the case may be. He is usually the one who would try to aggravate one of the boys and then he would pretend it was someone else "Not me," he eyes seem to say and his body language would declare loudly that he was an innocent party. The power of non eye contact is certainy one that he uses quite a lot expecially with Bujang who sometimes just wants to reassert his BIG BOSSship.

I think one of these days Tanaka would be BIG BOSS. He is certainly well able to be bigger than Bujang. I wonder how Bujang would take that. Actually I wonder how the whole clan would be able to take that.

I certainly would have to remember not to intefere although I would be sad when that day comes.

Cattyman...too salty but I like...

Yes san I think I am much prettier than the monitor...

Urgh...salty cattyman...but gimme some more please...

Not so slow Saturday

Nothing can rock my world!

Well, I deserved to rest as I helped san wif the bins as usual on Saturday. I also lay the rug in the bathroom so that we can all be warm if we decide to sit in it!

I decided to see what Ms Akira likes about the fridge. I can see nothing but I thought I had better get off in case she comes! She is one scary cat!

Ooohhh....whats that?

Just like Toro, Tanaka has also seen fit to explore the roosting places of the others. I am afraid there would be trouble brewing here. There is much screaming and hissing in our future.

Its now mine Bujang

There is nothing like a warm modem to sleep on...

Toro trying out the other places for good measure...

I suppose its true that a cats sense of hierarchy is flexible. The one who is BOSS one day will be the minion the next. Toro has been trying out Bujang's sleeping places for the last two days with no protest from Bujang at all. He has learnt to jump onto the TV console and decided that he liked sleeping on it! Bujang merely looked at him and then decided he would just sleep in grandma's room :)

Toro of course has also been rather naughty and has for some nights refused to sleep with the boys. Bujang and Tanaka would just follow the night snack right into the room but Toro needs a special invitation. He would pretend to follow the crowd and at the last minute, he would detour and run under the table. Of course with night snacks in my hands, I am not quick enough to catch him before he bolts :( So I have had to repeatedly invite him to sleep.

Yesterday I thought I would just leave him outside but Bujang made a lot of noise and Tanaka was undettled so I had to invite the VVIP in. Thank goodness he was just sitting outside my door and decided that he had tortured all of us enough. He went in, had a snack and promptly went to bed!

Hide and Seek

Bujang trying to get Da Bird...

Bujand sneaking to eat Ms Akira's night snack!

We were playing with Da Bird yesterday after a break. As Toro and Ms Akira were chasing and jumping after the lure, I noticed that Bujang was missing. Then I turned around and saw him quietly eating Ms Akira's night snack!! Its a miracle that such a big cat can get into the night cage at all. Aiyoh! This Bujang!

War and Peace

Bujang resting where it is cool and away from vexations...

Toro waking up from an afternoon snooze...

Ms Akira sniffing out the enemy...

Megat on a time-out...

As it got hotter in the afternoon, the amigos all went about their business - napping except Megat who decided to aggravate Ms Akira. She yelled and snarled at him. It must have been quite a sight as her collar fell off her neck. Poor Ms Akira. I went into the room and Megat scooted under the bed as he knew he had done wrong. He then decided to show Toro his Shaolin moves. Toro, bless his heart, fought back. Before things could go any further, I scooped Megat and put him in his cage for a time-out. He has not had a time-out for some time so I wondered what went wrong. Since no claws were out, it could just be posturing.

I noticed that every time Megat has a thing with Ms Akira the the 2 boys would come running to her. They would not do anything to Megat but they would just stare at him and then at her. Then they would sit with her for a bit. Yesterday after a short spat, Toro sat near Megat and stared at him :) Megat then sat quietly and behaved himself before finding something else to do.

Its apity that I sometimes cannot catch him immediately as he is a nifty fellow and would run off under beds and tables to hide under . :(
