Foot wash time! We all know that great sense of achievement when something long awaited is finished. We had all been locked out of the kitchen so that we didn't disturb the artist in residence. It seemed highly unfair. So unfair I took to piddling on the minifridge to prove that being locked out, even with 3 litter trays to paw was still not on!
Lillibet was outside with Faith. They are usually out there for hours and never venture inside except for lunch. Lillibet came in early! That's all I can tell you. We were all asleep, Momma went to answer the door and when she came back her creation had been artistically altered and hiding behind some bubble wrap with a set of paw prints trailing in soft cream was Lillibet!

She had heard the door bell, trotted in through the cat flap, saw some new structure had been built, jumped right up onto it and it's wet pain and then tried to escape by firstly running to Momma by the front door, then trotting, just out reach, all the way back to the kitchen and up onto the work top and then down onto the floor again. All the while trailing little paw prints of slimy paint in her wake on Momma's newly steamed floors! Once she was caught, she had to have her feet washed and even though she is a a bit of a yowler and a thunderbus at times, she was remarkably well behaved. Of course, because the washing wash taking place, the paint was drying faster than any paint on earth and setting hard in clumps and slithers. Only on the floor, cupboards and worktops did it dry this fast - it took the original painted surface 5hrs! That's life as they say.

Of course, the rest of us were really well behaved, piddling excluded. I don't count that as being naughty and really, it paled into insignificance compared to the scrubbing it took to remove every paw print from the deep grained laminate. Although, not a few days later I was observed taking a tinkle on the end of Momma's bed. Right in front of her. Next to the radiator so my butt didn't get a chill. There are three trays upstairs, I had been in the gritty one, but since the cat litter was changed because our usual supplier had trouble shipping our normal stuff, I decided I didn't like the substitute. The one in the kitchen is great, but I was locked out of there as it was early morning. So I thought, why not just do it here. So I did. Right on the duvet, through the cover, down the radiator. Yep. That felt good. Flaire was disgusted and instantly sprayed the curtains and then Pearl started growling and sprayed the inside of the curtains. It was a pee fest! We all joined in and oh how happy was I running about the top floor in glee.
The glee wore off when I was put in the kitchen the next night. Pfft. Now every time I squat anywhere I am looked at with great suspicion. However, there is a silver lining. I get a tray all to myself, my food pod opens when I go near it and I can eat heartily in front of Faith & Lillibet who's diet food doesn't taste as good as mine and I breathe on them as I pass. Mmmm, rich turkey full fat kibble!
