Yes, as a matter of fact my cat is saying, “Meow, please give me something to eat, my owner, yes that lady right there, is starving me to death, so please get help-fast.”
Hence, I’m sure you get my meaning about his stare, which I have no doubt he knows what he is doing- he gets miles out of his eyes and stare..
Even his stare looked off this morning, but I shrugged it off thinking that he was probably just in a bad mood, or his stomach hurt, but I didn’t feel like dealing with him, so I ignored my hunch..
However, I managed to get out of bed anyway, and face the fact that I gave Simon a scratch post for Christmas that was covered with catnip.
Now, I don’t have a lot of experience with catnip, but it seems to me that Simon cannot hold his buzz, because he is still happily galloping around my apartment destroying everything in sight.
Therefore, as he continued running his marathon through my apartment, tapping me on the back of my ankle and dashing off again, I surrendered and got in the shower.
When I was in the shower, I could hear him leaping from what sounded like my entertainment center, and onto my bookshelf, then he landed on what sounded like my side table- where I later found the bookmark out of the book I’m reading.
I cannot believe I did this to myself, but I guess I wanted to get Simon something he really liked for Christmas- because for some unknown reason I adore the animal- and I thought the scratch post was a great present for a good price..
He even laid his head against his new gift ensuring it would definitely be covered with his scent, and then walked away with his tail in the air. I was happy he loved it, because it’s hard to find a gift for Simon..
This scratch post makes him happy, and he knows that people are laughing at him, so I hate to take it away but at the same time, he can be extremely destructive, and frankly he is too destructive to behold..
Moreover, I guess, he can have what is already in the scratch post. I forgot to ask my friend how long the scent would stay that potent, so I guess I’m going to have to live with it until it wears out..
Actually, I should have remembered that wildcat beast look on his face this morning, since he’s been wearing it since Christmas. Hence, Simon wasn’t hungry when he woke me up this morning; instead he was flying high on Catnip....
By the way, would anyone like to have a Maine Coon grey tabby cat? He has had his shots, is neutered, has a litter box, toys, and a brand new scratch post.
We will contribute his first bag of food.

Consider yourself lucky that all he put in your face was his paw! Our lovely little cat -Chino baby -likes to hop up in whoever is available's lap and then, proceed to push her posterior right smack dab in your face! No manners whatsoever, ya know! She doesn't need catnip either to race and chase around like a super maniac! And she loves to chase my little grandson around, stalking him for a while, then giving forth with a full-fledged chase! Thankfully, he loves the cat though or there might be some meltdowns of massive proportions otherwise.
Glad to see you back, up and posting.
Ha ha! Our cats love catnip but it only lasts a few minutes. They roll in it, go all weird for a while, then they walk away from it.
You know you aren't going to give Simon away. We all know that. I think it's funny that you didn't know the effects of catnip though. Bwahahahahaha. I swear that Simon is your entertainment. Well, he's our entertainment much of the time too.
Have a terrific day honey. Big hug and lotsa lovies. :)
He's sooooooo beautiful! Two cats before Miiko (and yes I know I go through a lot of cats) I had a Maine Coon named Buddy. He was gorgeous too! Unfortunately he died of FLUTD but I still think of him often. Simon looks just like him!
Anyway.. Miiko doesn't care about catnip... I wonder why it has no effect on him?
Catnip...drugs to the stars...
Oh..I mean cats...
LOL
Hi there... want to change your favicon? find out how.. Have a nice tuesday!
I once had a cat get into the bag of catnip and he was so wired that he ran full tilt into a chair leg and - luck hit - had it break off. He's laying there stunned and he almost didn't get out of the way in time.
Gotta watch that catnip stuff -- crack for cats!
Hi Annie, I really enjoyed read this, it made my day!
Aw, eventually the catnip loving cat will calm down. It's nice of you to give him such a great Christmas present! Simon is bushy! You should be happy he comes on the bed with you. I like it when mine does that, although mine lays quietly right next to me and does not pounce on my head which I appreciate. My cats like catnip when it's fresh but then after a few days, they ignore those catnip toys. There must have really been a lot on that scratching post.
Cats are the greatest. I had one who would actually pat my closed eye lids if I decided to sleep in and he wanted his breakfast - NOW. Mushy food in the morning, come hell or high water, doesn't matter if there is a bowl of dry, must have the mushy stuff in the morning...New Delhi: IPS officer Peeyush Pandey was given nearly two year’s extension as Inspector General in Special Protection Group (SPG).

House Prices Will Rise By Next Year.
Confidence in the housing market is continuing to recover, with the majority of people believing that prices will rise over the next year.
A survey by propertyfinder.com found that 53pc of the 2,500 respondents thought house prices would increase by June 2010 â€“ although only by 0.6pc.
Many of the country's leading mortgage providers increased their lending rates in June â€“ with Nationwide Building Society pushing up the price of some of their offers twice in two weeks.
The rising cost has dampened some of the optimism seen in May, when 60pc of survey respondents believed prices would rise in the coming 12 months.
Nicholas Leeming, director of propertyfinder.com, said: "There is real anger out there about the failure of lenders to offer mortgage borrowers the rock-bottom interest rates that the Bank of England has tried to bring about.
"After rising to its highest level since the credit crunch began, confidence dipped as lenders' decision to ramp up rates prompted a borrower backlash.
"There is cause for optimism that we are past the worst, but the revival will be long and drawn-out if lenders don't change their ways."
Mr Leeming says a reduction in the number of available properties has caused the recovery in confidence.
