Flo – That blasted cat, part 1
Question:
Well, the office still needs cleaning, so they do it anyway. And what does that blasted cat do? She lies on the window sill watching them and yelling at them when they miss a bit. Stupid cat! — Andrea Fuller
LOL Andrea, it sounds like she has the situation under control. Jeanette remove nospam to email

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Flo, bless her, my lardy sponsor cat comes with inbuilt neuroses for free. One of these is her terror of vacuum cleaners. Every fortnight, my cleaners come in and blitz the house. Given Flo’s terror last time they were here, I asked them to let me know when they were ready to do the office. Flo is a _very_ messy eater and happily throws cat litter around the room, so that room desperately needed a good clean. So the summons comes and I go up in the stair lift to sort things out. Trying to herd Flo out of the office proves a non starter as she squeezes back in between a stick and leg. So I put plan two into action and attempt to lift her. I have no idea what Flo weighs, but she is heavy and my body immediately started yelling about it. However, I don’t want her stressed, so I stagger back to the stair lift and sit down. I manage to foil Flo’s first rescue attempt and she is growling her unhappiness with the situation…. until I start the stair lift moving. She quite liked it and found it much easier on her spine than hobbling up and down on foot. Approaching the bottom of the stairs, she again starts whinging. Surprisingly, she still didn’t get her claws out or bite me. The stair lift stops and I plonk her on the floor very relieved that I haven’t totally screwed up my body and that Flo isn’t stressed. And what does that stupid cat do? She goes charging back up the stairs at full pelt. My cleaners sensibly get out of her way. She runs into the office, jumps onto my office chair, climbs onto the desk and sits herself down on the window sill. Well, the office still needs cleaning, so they do it anyway. And what does that blasted cat do? She lies on the window sill watching them and yelling at them when they miss a bit.

Flo at last vet check weighed about 6.5kg and she has put on weight since then!!! Helen M — God created the domestic cat so that man could touch the Tiger. Throw the cat out before replying.
