Meet Hufflepuff...

[Crazy_cat_lady]

Yeah I can’t bare the thought of something horrible happening to him because he put too much trust in someone/thing. I actually had to check he wasn’t deaf when younger as he doesn’t even react to loud noises! I’ve never seen him ‘flight’ from anything which makes him an amazing pet but not so good for the outdoors.

As I said he’s not very athletic, are yours?? I’m fairly certain a normal 6ft garden fence would keep him in. He can’t jump on the work surfaces without a step up. Again I’ve had him checked out (perks of being a vet nurse) but it’s just him!

Me and mum regularly compete on who has got the best cat toys/living room set up

Interesting you say that, mine isn't what you call graceful, far from it, tends to miss stride when running and jumping the tunnel, and sort of belly flop onto it! With running start she can now get onto the counter, whereas AC is more athletic build and can jump higher she's much stockier, so less graceful! My mum's boy ragdoll though can jump quite high, usually into cupboards they want to be I
They definitely lack the danger and are so trusting, she is happy to visit with any visitors, AC is much more wary and prefers to approach people in his own time, whereas the little minx PD is straight in there charming people!

I love you and your mums cat toy competition, I don't get why OH thinks them being out is so offensive!

Does yours tend to get "obsessions" with things?

This is said with absolute love but he can sometimes be a little simple about things. Tonight is a perfect example, he heard my little pet gecko come out of her hide for a drink. So he made his way up to the tank (on a high shelf), this took him around 15 minutes to figure out what route/steps and one fall. He has since sat staring and occasionally stroking the tank.... she has been back in her hide out of sight for some time and he’s still there several hours later.

*Note I did monitor him when she was out, but she can’t really see through glass and was completely oblivious to the huge blue eyes on her*

Oh my goodness yes!!! We like to call it "the lights are on but there's no one home" my parents male ragdoll is definitely this at times, yet others he can be very brainy! Or he will look at you and you can almost see the cogs slowly turning! He also tends to just "stare" at times! Yet their female one is exceptionally intelligent, PD tends to veer between the 2!

To be honest it makes entertaining him easier! He loves those toys with the balls stuck inside which they have to stick their paw in to move and has a long ‘track’ of them which he can play with all day.

I really wanted a picture of two of them peeking out ? but they’ve not given the shot yet!

Yeah that might take a few hours of waiting but it will be worth it. Make sure you have a wee beforehand ?

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Love it! Cats and boxes. ?

Awesome!

I have an empty dehumidifier box laying under my kitchen table. Cilla found it basically as soon as we took out the dehumidifier, she loves it, we said let her have it for awhile, she'll lose interest, or ruin it, and then we can throw it away.

I've mentioned that box in another reply on HHO, when it had been laying there some months/around a year. That was what, 2, 3, or more years ago? I don't know, but it is still here, she uses it regularly, it's a perfect hideout to lay in, and keep an eye on what is happening in the kitchen.

 

[Cloball]

Excellent!
I have told the OH I am disappointed this hasn't happened here yet and to get onto it.

 

[HufflyPuffly]

They still prefer boxes to actual *very expensive* cat enrichment items...

You should be grateful they have actually used the cat tree ?

Also, the sass on Squirrel's face in that photo is brilliant!

She is 100% sass! Her fave thing to do is bat Lilly and run away quickly lol.

But more success they've all used it now apart from Tiger who is asleep upstairs still!

Huffle making a bold decision lol

Lilly not amused at others joining her

 

[ycbm]

This one makes me laugh ? It looks like a thought bubble coming out of Huff's head.

What is she thinking ..... "mmmm, I have a big problem hanging over me right now .."

 

[Shady]

Loving Queen Lilly up there in the top spot!
Iv'e been through 4 cat activity tree's . They literally have no legs left by the time I bin them.
Favourite gremkitty toys at the moment are a semi screwed up lump of brown packing tape and a fillet string !

All your cats are so gorgeous HP. xxx

Once you see it you can’t unsee it ?

They love playing with packaging or balls of anything, foil, wrappers, parcel tape!

Queen Lilly is very apt, she sees herself above all of us ??.

We need more gremkitty updates xx

 

[HufflyPuffly]

Not posted anything for a while but it is now a whole year since I picked up the wee grey sassy Squirrel so thought they could have an update .
From this:

to this:

She doesn't 'do' Mondays, maybe I should have called her Garfield?

https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10159930896104925

Not forgetting the floofy pest, who had a health scare of possibly accidental poisoning , we're not sure what she ate but a stay at the vets, fluids and some injections she seems back to her usual self now!

She did need lots of tuna, the fire on and a new scratching post to get over it though...

 

[Pinkvboots]

They are so cute

 

[Shady]

Oh wow, a totally grown up Squirrel. She is super lovely, especially the colour combination.

to the floof ball not being well. So glad she is ok and looking as fabulous as always

It's lizard and hornet time now over here which is stressful enough with the grown up cats but with the idiotic gremkitz I am feeling a bit demented already. Should be a right old laugh when the puppy arrives next month xxx

 

[Meowy Catkin]

They're gorgeous!

I love the cat fort (how did I miss that earlier?).

 

[HufflyPuffly]

I’m not convinced she didn’t eat some sort of bug that didn’t agree with her, I’m forever saving bees from her ?, so you have my every sympathy for lizards and hornets ??.

Im very excited for your puppy updates Shady ??.

Think it was too hot for them today, Tiger and Huffle chose to hang out in the bathroom ?.



The catfort is still in the living room but decidedly more dilapidated than it was ??.

 

[Mistletoeandawine]

Any chance of any Huffle xmasness?

 

[HufflyPuffly]

Ah thank you for remembering the little floofy rascal!

Just the normal tree destruction really…





She is as naughty as ever, I tried to wrap presents yesterday whilst she stole ribbon and bows! She has already ‘opened’ a gift by using it as a cat bed and chewed all the ribbons off already wrapped gifts ??‍, as well as ‘sampling’ the plant I bought for the bathroom… So yeah standard Huffle behaviour over here ?.

 

[Ratface]

That cat leads a charmed life! She's so beautiful, though . . .

Oh I don’t know, she thinks I should just let her savage my stuff ??‍


Now Squirrel, she would agree life is pretty good here!
