more venus antics....

[heatherlynn22]

well....i'm not sure if i'm liking the bigger house with venus....yeah i'm definitely not liking the bigger house with venus. she is absolutely HORRID!!! instead of having ONE room to hide in to jump out and scare the pee out of me she has....5. yes 5...7 if you count the kids room and play room (there are crevices she can hide in in the kids room and play room, 3 other bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) so no matter where i go i'm being attacked. it's getting to the point that i don't turn a corner without peeking my head around it first to see if i can see her...what's bad is she still manages to scare me. take this morning for instance. kids woke up super early so i was going up to the 3rd floor to do diapers and bottles...did i see venus sitting on the super 1/2 inch wide ledge on the side of the stairs right above MY HEAD???? nope. of course not. what did i get? a venus hat. what happened to me....i fell down the stairs, taking said bad cat with me, got yelled at by said bad cat and she took off running around the house like a bat out of h3ll. so this afternoon i'm heating up spaghettio's for the kids to eat for lunch....did i bother checking the cupboards for the fat, bad cat? no....where was she? sitting on the top shelf. (i still don't know how she got up there since there are NO counters below these specific cupboards) what did i get? a fat, bad cat hat....again. what happened to said fat, bad cat? well she ran upstairs to mine and gregs bedrooms, squeezed her big butt under the bed and wouldn't move when i came running up after her. she's lucky i couldn't grab her or i just may have made kitty kabobs for dinner. greg...just laughed at me. sooooo this evening i'm getting a shower apparently i needed help because the next thing i know i hear the door creak open, then MMMRRROOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWw and in comes venus. i think she meant to land on the side of the tub but she missed and landed IN the shower with me. she spent 45 minutes cleaning herself and I am still getting death stares from her.

Both of my cats do the same thing, drink out of our glasses of water. I too like to bring water to bed but I've had to resort to using a cup with a lid and spout so that they can't stick their heads in my cup. *Sigh* the things we put up with.

[FurballsMom]

My Siamese used to do the same thing if I had a glass of water for myself anywhere at all.  She would walk right up and invite herself to MY glass of water.  I soon learned not to have a glass of water sitting around anywhere at all.  But, I only had a small apartment to worry about.  Venus is sure a little "character"!  LOL.

[heatherlynn22]

ok so i had to post this. i'm writing more of my book right now ( i tend to think better late at night...i'm exhausted during the day but the book is getting done) and my dear venus (who has food and clean, cold water in her dish downstairs) decided she was thirsty. i always have a glass of water on my nightstand for myself...which may stop now...so what does venus do??? instead of walking her lazy but downstairs she walks to MY nightstand sticks her head in MY glass and drinks ALL of MY water!!!!! i'm starting to wonder how long this has been going on.

OH GOD WHAT IF I'VE BEEN DRINKING AFTER THE CAT???? that is so incredibly disgusting.

and now the snot just curled up at the end of the bed on MY side, licked her lips (i hope she liked my water) and went to sleep (after farting. nasty.)

*sigh* now i have to go get new water.

[heatherlynn22]

lol that is SO CUTE! lol i love that. all dressed up with no where to go. hold a kitty ball. dress up the other cats and have a kitty ball.

[aligator79]

He so looks prim and proper.  He even has the little tie down his chest with the little indention that looks like the knot.  He's always dressed up and doesn't have anywhere to go.

[heatherlynn22]

hahaha sounds like a big kid who was mad at mommy and throwing a tantrum. lol.

he's so flippin adorable. i've always loved tuxedo cats. they look so prim and proper even when they don't try to be. : o)

[aligator79]

Yep- That's my Taz-man.  He is such a baby- he was pouting- sitting with his back to me and looking back occasionally, because I didn't give him his attention as soon as I walked in from work.  As soon as I sat on the floor and cuddled for a few minutes, he was fine.  What a nut.

[heatherlynn22]

is he the black and white tuxedo on the beige couche? that is HILARIOUS!!! he's a gorgeous baby! i just want to cuddles him!

if you hadn't seen i've got tons of my venus up. i have new ones to post of her and her brothers...i'll have to get that done soon.

[aligator79]

There is a picture of him in a desk chair almost in his people position glaring at me while I take the picture.  I added some others.  I can't live without my kitties.

[heatherlynn22]

lol i love pouty kitties. so cute!!!! and when they sit like little people...OMG hilarious! i saw this picture of a kitty who was sitting on a couch like a little man beer bottle on one side and remote on the other side with his paw on it (obviously staged). it just cracked me up.

[aligator79]

Hmmm- Tazzy is a goofball.  He is 7 yrs old and generally very mellow.  He has started to meow on occasion- not often though.  He loves to sit like a human and lay in funky contortions to sleep.  He has never clawed me intentionally- only drew blood once when he spooked.  He's recently become a lap kitty and gets irked when I am not home when he thinks I should be.  He tends to pout when he doesn't get his way. LOL

[heatherlynn22]

lol does he have one mood? no random changes from loving, sweet kitty to psychotic kitty? I accidentally interrupted her sleeping this afternoon (that is always a big no no) and oh did i get it!

[aligator79]

Venus can come spend a week with me.  You could pass her around to everyone here and we could share in the insanity.  I might trade Taz for a few days.  

[heatherlynn22]

well last night i was laying in bed writing and revising one of my books when she started to nuzzle me. rubbing against my arm, headbutting me, giving me actual love bites....but this morning. what do i get? bit, scratched and attacked. this cat changes her moods more often than i change my underwear!!! lol.

[FurballsMom]

If I want a good laugh, all I have to do is read stories about Venus.  LOL!

[heatherlynn22]

venus....is absolutely ridiculous! last night i'm laying in bed almost asleep...finally. you know that little snot walks up to me (silly me thought she was going to nuzzle and love me) and smacks me in the forehead and bites my nose. she then proceeds to bunny kick me in the cheek and just flat out beat me up!!!!

my cat is possessed by the devil. *sigh*

[heatherlynn22]

i had this other cat when i was in high school, smokey, the craziest, MEANEST cat in the world. we never needed to get a dog when we had her (we had her for damn near 15 years when she went on to kitty heaven). she would meow/bark at the door when someone was there and if ANYONE walked through the door she did not know they were pounced. scared my uncle so bad he actually fell off our door step and off the porch. he stood up and was like "what the h3ll was that?!?!?!" we just laughed. of course smokey had her fur up on end and she was hoping up and down the porch spitting at him.

[FurballsMom]

This thread is a riot!  LOL!

[heatherlynn22]

i thought all the stories i'd read weren't true....but alas they are.

[April2]

Ah, main coons are characters too, I've heard!

[heatherlynn22]

mainly grey.

[heatherlynn22]

no she's a grey/black/tan main coon.

[April2]

Is Venus a gray Tabby? My goodness, Sakura is a gray Tabby! Maybe it's the breed!!!

[heatherlynn22]

lol aligator....that is hilarious!!! my mom had this cat daisy when i was younger. she was a pretty short haired grey cat (now that i think about it through out my life 98% of my cats have been grey...weird huh) that was just BEAUTIFUL! well one day we're sitting around the living room watching tv when all of a sudden we hear "PPPPFFFFTTTTTT" this really super LOUD fart. i looked up and looked around as did everyone else. we looked at daisy who was sleeping on the chair with her bum in the air opened one eye (i swear she smiled this contented HAHA smile) and went back to sleep. it stunk SOOOO bad. i mean we had to open all the windows bad. worse than a grown man. lol.

cats.
