Hello Everyone, Simba here
Today, Leo and I are laughing. Yes, we do laugh, you know. Leo has a great sense of humour, in fact, biting toes and that sort of thing ….
Anyway, you’re probably wondering why we’re laughing. Well, we heard on the Today programme (I like Radio 4, actually) that to build a relationship with a cat you have to narrow your eyes and blink slowly. So, we have spent the morning looking to see if that’s what they’re doing. We’ve even studied Aunty Alison.
It’s completely hilarious. And… we have been narrowing our own eyes and blinking to see what happens…. extra kibbles? Special Applaws with crab? Sirloin steak? Prawns? All the things we like.
Oh they are funny aren’t they? Well we have had quite a fun morning making faces at them, but those prawns, steaks and additional kibbles haven’t appeared yet and I’m not sure how long I can keep it up.
There’s only so long you can spend narrowing your eyes. You get frown lines. Anyway, the research is wrong. I narrow my eyes when I have a mouse in my sights!
Do you know, I think it hasn’t worked because Leo has been put on a diet because he is getting fat.
I only have his interests at heart.
Hmmm. I won’t spoil the day by telling the White Delight just what I think of that! I shall recline on the sofa in my newly created hammock.
Oops, it’s not a hammock. It’s just where the cushions have collapsed under his weight.
Anyway, I must go now and make myself scarce before he sees this.
Lots of love
(and take care – that virus thing seems to be re-emerging, doesn’t it)
