There I was, fast asleep, minding my own business, when I was unceremoniously turfed off the bed this morning, so that Mum could change the duvet! A cat can't get no peace!
I held on for a bit, but to no avail.
I even tried the outstretched paw thing, but that didn't work either. Then the noisy sucky monster came out, so I retreated to underneath the sofa.
I'm just waiting until she's finished, then I'll be straight back up there.
I'm a big fat ginger waiting to get back to bed cat.
Seeing as it's Thursday, and it's raining, I thought I'd spend some time upstairs on the bed.
I'm just sitting here wondering what to do.
Wait, someone's coming. Act natural.
I'm not doing anything, honest.
I am exhausted from yesterday's dog baiting exertions!
Time for a nap on my favourite mat.
Dad says I have no shame. Not sure at all what he means.

Now, I know I'm not supposed to do Dog Baiting, but sometimes I just can't help myself. What is dog baiting? Well, it's positioning yourself in a place where the dog can see you, but where you know he can't get at you. Mum gets cross when I do this, but like I said, I just can't stop myself.
Anyway, here I am, getting into position.
I'm also at the front of the house, which Dad gets upset about, as he likes me to stay at the back away from the cars. Little does he know that when he lets me out the back, I just go over the fence and go round the front anyway!
Here is my quarry approaching.
I've zoomed in a bit here for you.
Two collies, and on leads. Perfect for dog baiting! You need to keep your wits about you though!
They tried, but they didn't catch me!
I'm a big fat ginger dog baiting cat.
Today, I've been an all action cat. One minute I'm sitting on the bed,
You can just tell something's going to happen, can't you.
I'm a big fat ginger all action cat.
As much as I like sitting under the stairs, sometimes I like to sit on them. It's funny though, these stairs don't seem big enough for a big ginger mancat.
Then, of course, you have to contend with the pawparazi! There is just no peace!
I'm a big fat ginger on the stairs cat.
I like sleeping under the stairs. It's nice and cosy, and I can keep an eye on everything from under the table. Actually, I don't know where the table came from, but it seems to have replaced my cushion, which I now can't find, which disappeared when my kitty condo arrived. Are you still with me? I think my cushion has gone on to greater things.
Anyway, back to under the stairs. One minute I'm curled up...
Then it's the turn of the outstretched paw!
I'm a big fat ginger under the stairs cat.
Sometimes, a Mancat has to take responsibility for the household and keep Dad in check. Mum's back now, and it wasn't too bad, as she'd left Dad instructions. I did get a bit confused, as normally I wait for Mum to come downstairs in the mornings and always come down with her. Of course, the other morning she wasn't there, but I still sat upstairs and waited cos that's what I always do. Dad had to come and get me in the end. There was lots of room in the bed though!
So, I am exhausted keeping Dad in line, so time for a little sleep.
I'm a big fat ginger worn out cat.
I've been abandoned. This is not good.
Mum's gone to visit her Mum in Sunny Devon (although it will rain all the time, she says, cos it always does., and it's miles away, although I don't know how far a miles is.
Dad's still here, but he doesn't know about my stuff. He doesn't know about my stinky goodness. He's not here all day cos he does something called work, he won't let me come into the toilet with him like Mum does, and he doesn't let me sleep on his legs all night. The only thing he knows about is my outside water bowl, and a Mancat can't survive for 3 days on an outside water bowl.
Guess we'll just have to manly make the best of it together.
I'm a big fat ginger home without my Mum cat.
