Well, you
made it to my page huh?
OK, so now
you are here, grab yourself a coffee, and check out my page! woooo hoooo
My name is
'Henry the Cat' and my Mum & Dad
bought me for a tidy sum of $Aus10.00 at a pet shop in October, 2006.
Well, they
took me home and I cried and cried for 2 days, cause they had such a big
home and I was such a small kittycat.
They had
this little dog called 'Bunty' and he tried ever so hard to comfort me,
but do you know what???? He was a male, and I wanted so much to be with my
mummy.
Anyway,
Bunty was patient with me and groomed me and played hide and seek amongst
the sofas and under the frilly bits hanging off my Mum's BIG queensize
bed. Ohhhh we had the grandest times.
At night
time, I was put in the laundry with Bunty, and he would let me cuddle up
with him.
When I had
proved myself that I could behave myself, my Mum let me wander the house
at night. My favorite night games where to jump on the bedside table of my
Dad and play with the touch lamp. Gosh it was just so funny waking him up
and him being confused thinking it was time to go to work at 1.30am in the
morning.
But bummer,
he told Mum that if I didn't behave myself, I would be banished back to
the laundry. Well I couldn't have that, so I halted my night games and favored
roaring up and down the hallway chasing Dad's socks I took from the
laundry basket.
Well, Mum
put a stop to that, cause Dad reckoned his socks were disappearing, and at
one stage he didn't have too many pairs of socks, only odd
ones.....purrrrrrrr
Well I
finally grew up and my Mum and Dad let me out to explore the BIG world in
the backyard. Gosh!!!! it was awesome. So much fun and things to smell and
play with. When I was allowed out, I came across this dog called Speedy.
Now speedy is a Fox Terrier and she would run and run and run me ragged! I
would get soooo tired that I would have to ask my Mum to let me inside.
In October
1999, it was really sad for me, cause I could see that Bunty was sick. You
see, all his life he had suffered from a heart problem, and Mum and Dad
treated him like a human child, always taking him to the doctor for
sniffles and whatever.
Well, this
Saturday night, they got home from taking my BIG brother Andrew out for
his birthday, and poor Bunty was just sooo ill. I tried to comfort him,
but I could see he just wanted to be with Mum.
Mum and Dad
took him to the doctor at midnight, and when they got home after 1.30am,
and Bunty was not with them, I knew he was never coming home.
Mum, Dad,
Andrew and Kayte were just so upset, so I went and stayed outside with
Speedy, cause she wondered where Bunty had gone.
In
December, 1999, a lady asked Mum to look after her little dog. Well my Mum
being a kind lady said yes. And you know what??? This little ball of fluff
arrived and I knew I was now the boss!
Poor Mollie
didn't know if she was coming or going. I would chase her, and she would
try and chase me, and TRY being the operative word! hehehe.... purrrrrrrr
Well it is
now August 2008, and that Mollie is still here, BUT I am still the boss!
My life has
been so wonderful, and I know I do some really norty things like scratch
the back of Mum's sofa, and still sneak the occasional pair of socks out
of Dad's dresser, but Mum scolds me and I toddle off to Mum and Dad's bed
and go to sleep.
When I am
asleep, I can hear my Mum saying what a lovely cat I am. |

This is me when I got
caught popping
out of Andrew's laundry basket after
I had had a snooze in it.
I have taken
to checking out the neighbors cars, and a few weeks ago, Mum went outside to
see her friends off, and I was snooping around in the back of the neighbors
car. My Mum got sooo cross with me, but I didn't want to get out. Mum went
inside and got my kitty food and rattled the box, NOW that got me outta the
car pretty quick! I am not one to knock back some Whiskas treats.
This is me on my 'Cat
Scratcher'
my Dad made for me.
Now it is
getting cooler, I try and cuddle up real tight with my Mum at night. But I
have to suck up to Dad a bit first. I try smooching and purring in his ear,
and if I play my cards right, he allows me some room at the foot of the bed.
This is Mollie and she knows
I
am the Boss!!
This is Speedy, and sometimes
we have a game of 'tag' in the
backyard.
I spend lots
of time with my Mum, cause she has her own business and works from her home
office. She allows me to sit in the co-pilots seat where I can oversee what
she does and to make sure she does it right. Sometimes, I jump up onto her
desk and give my paw of approval on her work, and she gives me lots of
cuddles and I purrrrr to her in contentment.
Mum, Dad,
Andrew & Kayte are the coolest owners, and Kayte feeds me every night,
cause it's her job. She loves me too, and I love to 'butthead' her bedroom
door to make her let me in. She yells at me to go away, but I know if I do
it long enough she just has to let me in.
I know that
there are many cats who don't have a good life like me, and I feel very privileged
to be with this family.
But I will
tell you something! They think they own me!...but wrong.....I OWN THEM!
