Huge news….at least from my point of view. Mom bought me ANOTHER water fountain. The last one she took back because after a week I was still crawling past it on my tummy and elbows. This time she said I had to get used to it because she wasn’t sure if Kali was getting enough water from the bowl by the sink. Well, it took me a few days, alright Kali, quite a few days to get close to it but I like it now.
Here, I stare at it….the fountain stares back but does nothing. 
I got a little closer and it still didn’t move or squirt water at me. 
Aha….I’m taking a drink out of this silver devil.
Hey, this water is good. Cool and fresh. I’m so brave. I conquered this devil!
Caturday is also Artsy Fartsy Day and mom got a wee bit creative with me and a unicycle. 
Athena and Marie are presenting the blog hop so hop on over and view the creative anipals. Or should I say view the anipals wearing the concoctions of their creative pawrents. Tee Hee

Yous never know Shoko. Dat’s what mommy sed too. But sis Lexi hogs da fountain cuz of hers CKD. She neds to stay hydwated. And then meez diagnosis meant me needed to dwink more water, so…
Yes, da plastic ones awe typically less spensive but they can also cause feline acne ifin yous chin touches da bowl. So it’s good yous all got a steel one. Da ceramics awe also good.

Ladymum lives with you and sees your behaviour all the time so she would know your behaviour and if it is bad. Ladymum may be the same as my mom though. My mom wasn’t used to an active kitten and kitster so she thought I was hell on paws. No, just really active and busy all the time. Calling her when she was busy, running and hitting her and then running away and hiding. I still tend to do these things but not as often. Kali never did do any of these things. Kali is more like a queen.

hahaha…yep, I still do some of these things. I guess I never really grew up. In human years I should be about 40 and a bit…well, I’m a very immature 40 year old! My favourit is to climb on mom’s pillow when she is sleeping and grab each side of her head and then try to throw it. What a hoot! Much of your behaviour is kitster type stuff and much you will outgrow. I never did crawl up curtains but I don’t think mom would understand my wanting to. She has custom made curtains that cost a pretty penny so she would be very upset. I don’t like to see her upset with me because she very seldom gets mad at us. I can’t remember it as a matter of fact so it has been years. If Ladymum insists you don’t do an activity….don’t do it! She is a very nice lady and you must honour her wishes Dharth. She does a whole lot for you…you can do the odd thing for her too.

Mom doesn’t believe in squirtin’ us with water or anything else. I haven’t seen how you can act up, your mum has choasen the method she feels works but if it doesn’t have an effect don’t continue. Mom raising her voice has no effect on me but if she says, “no!” and stops playing or doing what she was doing, I feel bad. Cause she walks away and won’t play with me until she feels my behaviour is more gentle.

Your mum is doing the best she can think of for you Dharth. If you are not in pain….don’t holler so much. You’re not Siamese. We don’t holler, we talk. When Kali was in a lot of pain she sorta hollered by only occasionally….she was ill. Mom would sit and hold her head in mom’s hands and Kali would purr softly. Not all the time but most times.
