Jiji-chan is in so much TROUBLE!
DD3 got herself a ranched fox pelt last year. She got it fairly inexpensively because it is a white pelt with an off color paw and a streak in the tail. Her room is a no cats zone because she has her furs and she has her betta fish.
Jiji figured out how to open her door last night. Thankfully the fish are OK, but he "caught" part of the fox's tail. I espied him running past with something white and poofy in his mouth and thought it was a bit of fluff from this years dollmaking, or that he had gotten into the batting. When I caught up to him he did the whole triumphant mighty hunter routine, set the fur down, put one foot on it, waved the other paw at me, and gave me the details of his Great Hunt in catspeak. Cats are worse liars than fishermen about stuff like that. (G) Of course I confiscated the bit of tail. When DH saw he told Jiji, "You are so gonna get it! she is going to make you into fuzzy slipper insoles, and make tiny little flutes out of your bones!" Jiji was going around making out that he was a lion until DD got up this morning. Oohhhh she was mad! She chased him up and down the house. We told her she couldn't kill him, she said "I don't want to kill him, but he is going to replace that tail!" While a white fox pelt with a fluffy black tail attached might be unique looking, a tail-less angora cat would be just pitiful. So she is having to settle for annoying the cat. Every time he gets within ten feet of her she shoots him with a Nerf gun. Every time she gets within ten feet of him, ditto. She has hit me several time already (Nerf weaponry is far from accurate), and Ji-chan has taken to trying to burrow behind me wherever I am sitting. Using me as a human shield I presume. It seems every time he pokes his nose out from behind me I get nerfed. I don't know whether to lock him in my room, lock her in her room, lock myself in my studio, or get myself a nerf chain gun.
