Wednesday Word of the Day—Timeout

OK, I was given a timeout yesterday because TW said I was getting out of hand. Correction, Woman, I was getting IN hand, as in MY teeth in YOUR hand. Don't be going all crazy on me now.

TW's McFinger … I'm loving it!
The other day I posted about some little transgressions that happened Caturday, in which TW's hand got in the way of my claws and she got a few scratches. Big deal. Then, later in the day, she decided to give me some Silvervine so I'd take out my aggressions in a "positive" way. She dipped her finger into the little remaining Silvervine; but instead of putting it on the wash cloth, she decided to put it on my plague ratsie. Not a good idea. As I looked around to find out the source of the wonderful aroma wafting through the air, I spied the ratsie. More concisely, I spotted TW's hand holding the ratsie. I sprang into action and sunk my lower fangs into the underside of her wrist and my upper fangs into the top of her wrist. She screamed. She cussed. OMC! Where does she pick up that kind of language! I can't believe she kisses me with that mouth! Do you know what she proceeded to do next?? She … lemme collect myself … she … threw … out … the rest of the Silvervine! She said if it made me that aggresive, I couldn't have anymore. EVER.

Today, I figured she'd forgotten all about that stuff cos she started playing with me again. She thinks she can teach me to play without using my claws or teeth. I say, Good luck, woman! She dared to put her hand on my Teeth and Claw Workout Center and, quick as a wink, I attacked. My tooth put a
L-O-N-G scratch on the back of her hand. Again she cried. She stamped her feet. Next thing I knew, I was locked in my Pop's room. In solitary. No food. Only water and you know I don't drink water. I waited. And waited. I heard her playing music and having a party or something out there. Her diabolical laughter filled the house while the music drowned out my sobbing. When was Pop going to get home? If Pop saw me locked up, he'd lock HER in solitary for the rest of the month. I thought of my food bowl in the kitchen and how it had just been filled with my favorite Fancy Feast tuna. I tried to turn on the computer to seek help but I was cursed by lack of thumbs. Where was my iPhone?


Where could Pop be?, I axed myself as the hours became days and then weeks. How long had it been since I had my last supper? Then, at last, I heard footsteps in the hall. I debated whether to attack TW when the door opened. After all, I don't get mad, I get even. My timeout had finally ended and I decided to hold off my revenge until later. When she least expects it, I will attack!
                                                                                                                                                                 
Leftover business: For those who axed, you can get peacock feathers at Cat Claws or Amazon.com. Amazon also sells 50 and 100 packs but beware because those are just the eyes. For optimum fun, you need the entire length of the feather. Nip & Bones used to have the best price but they're having problems reordering them.
                                                                                                                                                                   
Late breaking news: The beautiful 11-year-old Fergie from my Equal Opportunity Employers post has found her furever home! SCREEE!

  4. CK, that probably did hurt the Mom when you bit her by mistake. Lots of nasty words come out of our Mom's mouth every now and then.Sorry you got put in solitary. Hope you have a better day. Take care.

  5. Yeah, what Katie said. Go easy on your mom. What if she couldn't open your Fancy Feast cause you latched onto her hand. You could waste away while she heals.

  7. I swear CK, you and Topaz must be cousins. I have many scars on my hands and arms from her claws and teeth. I currently have scratches on my knee from where she tried to jump on my lap and lost her balance!

  8. What is that 'ole saying.".Never bites da hand dat feeds ya" Hmmmmmmmmmm!

  9. Doesn't your mom understand that she must keep fingers AWAY from claws and teeth. It's really not your fault if she keeps stickin' them in your way. She has GOT to learn how to play safe. And throwing away your silvervine? Well... I don't know what to say...

  10. Time outs ahahaha your mom is funny!

  11. Oh the inhumanity of it all. A cat's life if just not fair. Still, we have the cute factor on our side. I'm sure you can throw on a little charm and quickly wipe all those bad words away.

  12. I keep trying to tell you - NO BITEYS! I actually kiss my mom! MOL!
    Luv you.

  13. Yeah, for some reason, Moms don't seem to like the bitey. What the heck is up with that?

    ReplyDelete
  14. Hey CK - better go easy on TW for a few days now. You've punished her enough, and she does feed you your favorite foods.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Oooh, try not to bite TW! We're glad you're out of solitary confinement 'tho! Our kitties are still enjoying the peacock feathers that you were so nice so send home w/mom!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Do you think you can dig the silvervine out of the garbage?

  17. Precious says that revenge is a dish best served cold! HaHaMeow!

  18. Dang...being locked up isn't fun at all, CK...maybe you should lay off the bitey for a few days.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Glad you were sprung. Try not to bite TW or she may not be able to bring you num-nums.

    Love, Fluffbomb

  20. When my human plays with Binga, she does it with wand and fishing toys - if she gets her hands anywhere near here when she is riled up, she is putting her fragile human skin in danger!

  22. Wow--I'm appalled that she jailed you AND that she 86'd your 'Vine. Although--you *are* a little high-strung and crazypants even without it, so.....eh. Go back to the Nip. At least you probably won't actually kill anybody on that, right? Heh heh. You're my Goddess.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Wow! Kitty jail! That bites!!! And so do you!!! MOL Seriously, our sisfur, Jazzpurr, sent mom to the E.R. late one night from a bite, but she tore gashes in mom's wrist. She didn't mean too - she was scared. Anyway, mom lived to tell the tale and Jazzpurr is doing just fine. Just be careful with your mom. You know how delicate those humans can be!

  24. FaRADaY: PFFT! A little nipping. RILLY, such an overreaction!!

  25. Hey, Miss Time-Out!
    We TAGGED you today!

  26. I hope you stayed out of the slammer today, CK. I envy you your plethora of Tunnels! Somekittehs thought it was wrong to let the Humans know about this, but they're not that bright and they'll forget it all soon.

    I am sending Glogirly a few photos on the weekend. The Human doesn't think I am suitable for a starring role, so we'll probably just ask to make the occasional Kingly guest appearance.

    XOXOXO
