Msolga, I went out for dinner, came home and watched some TV. They were on top of me the whole evening :-)
I understand, I understand....
Are you ok, then, Roberta?
A little salve, perhaps?

Already? Oh, I see. Oh dear ... Never mind, Roberta, you tried!
Osso, No permanent damage. Just a nasty bite--while I was lying in bed about to fall asleep. That woke me up. He tried for a second, but I was up and roaring before he got me. I super-soaked him. We haven't spoken since. But he's eating as much as he wants. Grrrrrrrrrr.
Hi Vivian, Bite as in nasty, bleeding bite. With bruise marks. I'll never get used to it.
Sorry to hear you're having problems with Rosie. Toes sticking out--an invitation for disaster.
Vivien
Now that's not so cute! Naughty Rosie, she thinks you're another cat. And why wouldn't she?
Roberta
Oh!
I hope that bite's healing. That Mikey cat needs a good talking to! Be brave, & in the words of BBB, hold your dominion!
Olga, Brave? This isn't a matter of brave. And as for holding my dominion. I don't have one. This is survival of the fittest (or fattest). I'm not all that fit. And Mikey is big, strong, and big. After ten years of this, I haven't lost hope that one day he'll wise up--or I will.
After a day of ignoring him, he's on his best behavior. I would have given him the cold shoulder for longer, but he's too cute.
Is this a codependent relationship, or what?
Toes sticking out - oh yes! Nisse attacks them, too.
At the moment, he also jumps onto my shoulders or back whenever he sees the chance. That might be while I am applying mascara... My shoulders have very nice scratch patterns. And he is heavy! And jumps down from the refrigerator! Trying to break my neck most likely....
But then again, he is soo cute. Roberta, I know what you're saying.
When my feet are sticking out of the covers, or in the summer when there is no cover, Mikey likes to rub his head on the bottom of my feet. This is a strange and funny feeling, because his ears pop up and down. When he's finished rubbing, he takes a bite of my instep. Not a vicious bite, but a playful nip. Still, a gigantic cat with sharp teeth. The best kind of bite is no bite.
urs, Break your neck? Nah. Just being friendly. LOL. I think that they think that we're giant, powerful beings and that nothing will hurt us. I think they're a bit surprised when they do hurt us when they're playing.
Well, Roberta, that makes sense. That could be right! I'm having trouble typing with Nisse in my lap, on my arms and hands...
