the kitten chronicles - part 130

Do kittens make New Year's resolutions? Like" I resolve to stay off the kitchen counter this year." Or "I resolve not to chew on the brand new leaves on the Big Cat's house plants." Not bloody likely. But something's definitely up. The boys have recently taken on a new fitness plan that involves way more high speed chases. Did they notice they'd put on a few from all the special Wiska's Tuna Delight? Maybe. So now your life is at risk if you attempt crossing the room when the fur-faces are flying around. Their motto?" He who fights and runs away lives to fight another day." This results in an endless series of sneak attacks. Rooney will wait until Rufus is least expecting it and suddenly charge over and nip on his brother's back paw - and then run for it. Revenge is not served cold at Casa Big Cat, however. It is immediate and brutal with much rolling around and pawing to the head. Has the warm weather given them Spring Fever? Well, they're in for a long bout, winter's just started, boys - don't let the absence of snow in Toronto fool you.
If this is a resolution, I for one wish they could have picked "I resolve not to knock whatever the Big Cat have put on the dining room table under the buffet." Now that's a good one! Saves me from having to lie on my stomach and fish my car keys out from under furniture with a wooden spoon. Happy New Year, lads. xxx dad
