cats; can't live with them, can't shoot them
So much for another early night. Slinky can't settle, so neither can I. He knows better than to try and wake Mr McMuffin, so he just yowls at me. I've kicked Ra out because I just won't have two cats that don't belong to us living in our home and Slinky's fast heading towards the door. Sadly, he is very good at reading my mind, so with an impressive piece of paw action has opened the door and run upstairs.
As I was coming down the stairs I smelled 'the smell'©. Ra's revenge has been to spray the front door so that the enticing aroma of disgruntled cat permeates the house. Who will rid me of these cats? Clearly not Mr McMuffin and the scaffolder who came to our house today to price up some work. Apparently the pair of them had a lovely chat about how much they adore cats. Since when have men felt able to express their feline feelings?
As an aside for Karan, a 2:1 is an upper second class honours degree. I don't know the US equivalent, but I think it's something to do with 'cum laude'. We have first, upper second, lower second and third class honours degrees. Degrees without honours are graded in the same way as Master's degrees; pass, credit, distinction. Of course this could be complete rubbish, but what do I know? I only got a 2:2.
!!! Mr McMuffin has just come downstairs holding a bashful Slinky.
He has now thrown him out and explained that Slinky woke him by SPRAYING on his leg.
He says he feels cheap and used.
Slinky has jumped back in through the window, so obviously wants to reassure Mr McMuffin of his love for him.
Slinky has gone upstairs again.
Mr McMuffin has a haunted look.
This last part was brought to you in REAL TIME by the intrepid Mrs McMuffin, girl reporter of the McMuffin household.

I think I mentioned the trick of covering your lawn with orange peel, as cats don't like going to the toilet on lawns with orange peel scattered about on them.
It looks like Mr M will now have to also start sticking orange peel to his legs when he goes to bed, to prevent himself being sprayed on! :-)

Do orange peel thighs work?

Is Mr McMuffin in possession of such items? I thought they only affected the laaaiidies. Then I suspect that Slinky's spraying is not your biggest worry!

Cellulite is the least of my worries. If only that was all I had to think about. Although, it is very unattractive, and I am not sure the lovely, sensitive, Slinky would want to spray on such legs. What a waste of good whatever it is they spray. (I am pretty sure it is not urine, but I don't know what it is. It certainly is not Chanel or Armani, or even Body Shop. That much I know.)
