My idiot brother was posting yesterday about the lack of goodies, so he was really happy today when Daddy stumbled downstairs and re-appeared with a box in his hands. “Awesome, a box!” he bellowed, “That’s a toy AND a snack!” So Mummy opened the new box and produced some MICE! Now, I’ve been hoping for some of those since a local cat told me how much nummier they are than flies and spiders. So I have to say I was disappointed when it turned out they were just TOY mice.

I soon cheered up when Mummy proceeded to fill the toy mice with catnip and put them on the floor. I had an enjoyable 15 minutes playing with them and then I went to my sofa for a nap. When I woke up Mummy and Daddy were talking about how “mad” I get when I’ve had catnip. They’re so silly, talking about me being mad when there was a load of food on the floor. I think Donncha must have knocked it over, and he even managed to get some in my fur. I don’t even know how he did that. As I say, I was asleep and I had the nummiest dream where I was riding a dragon round the flat, and food kept flying all round me.

Anyway, a big furry monkey wants to use the computer now so I think I’ll go for another nap. Bye-bye!

As the fifth-ranking resident of this flat, I would like to welcome you to Three Cats in a Flat. I wanted to call it Catageddon! but was outvoted 4 to 1, so I have been shut in the bathroom crying since then. Then Austin wanted to come in and drink from the toilet, so I had to leave. I have been chosen as the Other Correspondent, which is exciting.

Latest cat news from the flat is that Donncha came and sat in front of the monitor while I was doing something earlier on, and chased the mouse pointer for a few minutes. He hasn’t managed to catch it yet, but he’s getting closer. Keep your browsers pointed here for updates on the Donncha vs. Mouse Pointer story and other cat-related fun. They truly are the greatest cats in Christendom, and you’d be a fool to miss out.
