So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Goodbye

I'm off.
No I haven't quit the blogging world but I am quitting Blogger.
It is just tooooooooooooooooooooo hard and a tiny bit (ha) unreliable.
I am piggy backing on 2paw's site ....she is giving me instructions as I type.
I can be found HERE.
As Cleopatra's mum I am in the Cleopatra bit attached to her URL.
Hope the girls and she won't fight now they are nearly in the same blogging backyard!!!!!!!

So cute....when asleep!!!!

Well I don't want to become a pet bore...but..... isn't she cute????

She is clever too which I know is a pot luck thing with a pet shop cat.
She has learned about the bribery chicken I give her before I go out. It means....sit in the side window and cry where I can see her as I reverse away up the drive.
She is the mistress of guilt already.
She regularly attacks the Christmas tree ornaments....just till they fall and are dead.
She knows the difference between a $2 toy and a $12 toy...and guess which one she prefers???? The quiet , noiseless $2 one during the day and the expensive noise maker with the special long life battery ( dammit) in the middle of the night.
She knows she doesn't want the cat food once the ants have moved in to share it.
She cries and runs to me if she hurts herself and she is jealous of books, the computer and the remote controls because they get her share of the attention. She watches TV for a while then falls asleep regardless of her position....ah...to be that flexible again..if I ever was!!!!
And how have I been spending my happy holiday days when not playing Auntie to the Demon Spawn ( her mother named her that ,for those of you who think I did it and she is the most adored, spoiled and indulged only grandchild and niece in our family!!!Demon Spawn is a term of affection!!!!!) and mum to Cleopatra?
Well I have watched the entire second season of The Professionals and have moved on to season one of MacGyver...(despite the divorce I still feel compelled to watch his home videos) I have tried to blog...but with little sucess til today...had 2 attempts swallowed in the last 2 days.I have organised to get THE broadband on..as 2paw would call it....why do we all end up using her stupid phrases??????

Here is Cleopatra helping me write my blog. After she walked over the keyboard a few times...imagine how helpful that is!! she curled up to sleep. This is fine now...I may need a bigger computer desk in the future.

So hopefully with THE broadband and with some cooperation from blogger I will be able to bore you with further photos of the cute cat .
