Butterscotch and Gingersnap Bite me
March 19th 2008 21:00
My friend’s cats, Butterscotch and Gingersnap are like dogs – they like to follow me around, especially when I am going to his toilet. Even before I get the chance to shut the door they are there, standing in front of the toilet bowl. I then use the toilet in front of them. Usually they will watch. One time, though, Gingersnap came up to me and headbutted my leg through my pants. According to Kittens for Dummies by Dusty Rainbolt, this is an I-love-you sign. “I love you too, Gingersnap,” I said to the cat.
But one time, while I was on the throne, Butterscotch came up to me and bit the front of my leg while Gingersnap bit the back. It wasn’t painful but it did give me a shock! I said, “Gentle!” and the cats unhinged their jaws from me.
They are such sneaky cats. My friend says he has to be very careful when going to bed as if he doesn’t close the door quickly enough the cats will be in his bedroom, which he doesn’t want as he doesn’t like waking up with balls of fur above his head. They also know how to close doors. It’s so cute to watch. Inside the bedroom, they will sit in front of the door and use their paws to push it shut. When they want to go back out, they scratch the door. This will go on and on until someone lets them out. My friend ignores them when they do this but I find it annoying. I also put myself in their shoes: imagine how annoying it must be to be unable to open the door. So I like to open the door for them and watch them run back out into the lounge room where they like to sleep and play.
