Tutu Tuesday

Tutu : Daddy gives the best chin and head scritches

*purr purr purr*

!!!!!!!!

Tutu : Hey!  I didn't give you permission to hold my paw! Head scritches only!
Daddy : I've got big hands. I could squish your little face if I want to

Tutu : You've got big hands but I have sharp teeth! So I win

Tutu : That's more like it. Teeth. Works every time

Wordless Wrassling Wednesday with Cosmo and Tutu

Please excuse the choice of venue for this wrassling match....

Tale Of Tails In The House Of Whisppy

Have you ever wondered about the Tails of  the Furries of Whisppy?

Whisky : This is my *tail*, which is about the size of a rice grain with brownish fur attached to it. I can't do anything with it, though
Whisky was born with a underdeveloped (or rather, a never developed) tail. The little thing is at the right place, just never developed. Which makes her very special!

Whisky : That's why you see this in all my photos. Mommy ties up the fur this way so they stay clean after you-know-what

Cosmo : My tail has kinks in 3 spots which makes it look like a question mark when I walk. Cute, eh?

Ling : The top bit of my tail is like someone scrunched it up and is all but 4" long. This makes cleaning it quite a challenge!
It's hard not to smile when I see Ling walk around with her 4" tail straight up  :)

Meow-Me : My tail is perfectly straight and has a white dot at the very tip. Mommy says my tail marking is very cute!

Coco : My tail is long and slender and looks pretty *normal* considering what everyone else has. MOL

Felix : Don't you just love the white bands on my tail? Like Meow-Me and Coco, my tail is straight with no kinks

Boomer : My tail is perfectly straight until about 3" from the tip. Then it's almost like someone had snapped my tail so the tip faces my back all the time. And in that 3" to the tip, there are another 2 kinks. Mommy loves it when I flick the 3" bit.  :)

Tutu! Will you show your tail properly?

*wagwagwagwagwagwag*
Tutu : HAHAHAHAHA! Here you go!
For heavens sake. Will you cooperate?

Tutu : My tail is beautiful and super long. Mommy says it used to have a small kink about 2" from the tip but it's not noticeable now. I LOVE to wag my tail!

Cosmo, Ling, Boomer and Tutu were born with kinks in their tails. None of their tails were deliberately broken. Kinked tailed cats are very commonly found in the local domestic cats of Malaysia. They are able to move the entire tail, including the tips, which makes it pretty funny to watch.  :)

Fankful Friday

Tutu : MOMMY! Why is this thing here? How do I get through?

This is the top half of the stairs. I had turned off the lights and was heading to the bedroom with Whisky (Wednesday night). Whisky had gone into the room but as I was walking in, she decided to walk out. And before I could stop her, she had missed her footing and fallen down the stairs. I rushed down to see how she was and she didn't cry out but was shivering. After checking her over, she seemed to have no injuries so I brought her back to the room and stayed with her until she fell asleep

The next day, I put up a DIY gate. I had checked baby gates but those had a bar across the bottom which I think is very dangerous when put at the top of the stairs. The humans may trip on it and fall down the stairs. And we may not be as lucky as Whisky to escape unhurt.

:: C R A S H ::

Give it another try, Cosmo? I'm sure you can do it
Cosmo : *Recalculating*

:: L E A P ::
Well done, Cosmo!

Whisky : So I won't ever fall down the stairs again?
No, sweetie. You won't

Whisky : You positive?
Yes, sweet girl

You want to show everyone where you landed after you fell?
Whisky : Okay!

Whisky : Right THERE! Where my stunt double is

Tutu : Mommy! I found a way to get through!

Tutu : SEE?

Cosmo : Look, Ling! It's easy. Just remember to tuck in your body and paws!
Ling : Uh...I think I'll go with Tutu's method

This is the second time Whisky has fallen down the stairs. And both times, she escaped unhurt. I think it's because her legs are the same height as the steps so she kind of slid down the stairs. I was worried she might have bruised her tummy or ribs but she is perfectly fine. I'm so thankful.

Wordy Wednesday with Boomer

*grumble grumble grumble*
Boomer : Mommy says I have to help with the housework. I'm big enough to WIPE the floor, she says

Boomer : Child labor. That's what this is. I may be big but I'm still a child. I should report her

Towel : Stop your grumbling and get back to work!
Boomer : YIKES!

Tutu Tuesday

You look mighty comfy in the harness, Tutu. I take it you like it?

Tutu : What torture device have you attached on me?

Tutu : It's trying to strangle me! Heeeellppppp!!!!

Are you done with being dramatic?
Tutu : It IS trying to strangle me! Can't you see it's tentacles around my slender neck?

Tutu : HELP me, Ling!
Ling : What on earth is all that screaming about?

Tutu : Arrrghhhhhhhhh!

Tutu : YOU WILL HELP ME!
Ling : Jeez. Say please

Tutu : PLEAAAASSEEEEEE!
Ling : My goodness. Get your smelly paw out of my nose!

Tutu : I've said please. Now get it off!
Ling : Move your head and I'll try to whap it off

* B O P *
Tutu : Owwwww!
Ling : I told you to move your head!

Despite all the drama, Tutu actually walks very well in a harness

Tutu : That's because Daddy is holding the other end of the leash. I'll do anything for my Daddy
