Do your cats throw tantrums?
Mornin’ cat lovers!
Do your cats throw tantrums? Mine do! Well, at least a few of them do. Especially Ginger Snap Ann. She’s the Queen of Tantrums around here. There’s a reason we call her “Ms. Hissy Fitz.” She’s quite taken with the Husband, and actually got a place in our household by reaching outside her cage at the shelter, latching onto his shirt with her claws, and pulling him towards her. We walked by several times, and she did that each time, so we figured, oh well, this cat’s comin’ home with us whether we like it or not!
She always has been quite persnickety, but even more so now that she’s being subjected to two new girl kitties. And of course, there’s always Louie…..Louie who is ALWAYS in her face. Actually, he always has his butt in her face! He’ll run up beside her, turn around, and back up til that furry butt’s IN her face. Is it any wonder that she hisses? I don’t blame her.
She and Demi were best buds, and she actually went into a depression when Demi died. We all did, actually. But she’s come through it OK, I guess, and is working towards the title of Top Cat.
Until next week,
Hisses and purrs!

I like the story of how she picked you guys. I’ve always thought that most cats find a way to the right home. Well, at least the lucky ones do…

Yeah, but they don’t know how lucky they are! I have a feeling they think that the humans are the lucky ones. LOL
Ginger’s a piece of work, for sure. She’s clingy, is definitely Rudy’s Cat, and will sit in his lap for hours (if he lets her), just gazing up into his eyes with her paw on his hand. And heaven help any of the others if they come near him when she’s there. sheesh.
