So for the last 9-ish (I don't feel like doing math) days i've been looking after my friend Brian's apartment. To be honest the time has proven to be far more of a vacation for me then i had ever expected. After spending a year living with people it was a more then welcome change to have a place to myself, though the cat I was watching turned out to be rather quirky.
This is Tuppence. She is a demon. Sure she may look nice and friendly on the outside, but once you get to know this cat you'll realize what lies behind those eyes. Here's a short list of things i learned about Tuppence:
- She is terrified of stranges and insists on hiding for several hours. Even if she know's you and you've been there every night for a week
- She likes attention and wants you to pet her, but she's a drama queen and will take a dive. The littlest touch and this cat is on it's back hissing and crying. Though as soon as you stop she'll get up and encourage you to go again.
- She's a strange eater. For the first 3 days she eat nothing, for the other 3 she was a pig.
- She likes her toys. So much so, in fact, that she will drag them in and throw them at you while you sleep. I woke up one morning with a jack stuck in my back
- She doesn't notice heat. No once did this cat show any sign of minding the horrific heat wave we're enduring.
