Thanks Emma!

Shaving wouldn't help....they'd find something to track through and then walk on our clay...leaving ever so subtle (not) evidence of their presence.

I often ask DH how our cats can lose enough hair to cover half the cats in the known universe...and still have enough to spare to barf a hairball of sufficient size to squeash up through bare toes. :-O

Oh furballs are fun arent they !

My cat has taken up domestic violence. He has hit me twice today. I always swore if a man hit me, I would walk - but I wasnt prepared for the cat doing it.

This is because I didnt feed him yesterday. Not quite so drastic as it sounds, the cat *could* go and eat with the rest of the cats, in the communual cat refectory that we laughingly call the downstairs bathroom. But no, - Sir is too special to eat with those peasants so he likes to take his dinner alone in my room.

So, because I forgot, he hates me and keeps slapping my ankles with his paw as I walk past him. No claws have been extended yet, so far just warning slaps with his furry paw pads, but give it time ;-)

At 4 a.m this morning, I was startled out of a dead sleep for the very reason described below. So how do you get out of bed, if you don't know where to put your feet?

Isn't it funny how quickly you get trained to hear that "gurg--gurg--gurg--gurg" cat furball noise and leap up to remove cat to outside!

No fair when you are asleep though - that is like them coming and planting mines ;-)

luckily mine doesn't get hairballs. Unluckily, every now and then, they decide to regurgitate their food. And I can hear it from a mile away. From a dead sleep. In the middle of the night. And they have figured out how to time it so that no matter how short or long it takes me to get to them, they will upchuck right as my hands touch them to put them into the bathroom. Or on the off chance that they have gone once (or twice), they won't go *AT ALL* in the bathroom.

weird.
