I live in a house with eight cats. Yes they some times smell, yes they some times eat a lot and some times they can be so annoying. You'll never guess what though, I can be a real pain in the backside, I some times reek of BO and I some times even stuff my face! (Only with Jaffa Cakes
) There is much more to me than that !! I have a lot of things I love to do and friends I love to see. My cats are similiar, they have their own unique personalities and enjoy the company of one another.
Nefertiti is the diva, she sits and preens and glares at every one. If you suggest some thing to her she will give you a look of digust. "How could you ever suggest such a thing?"
Tiramisu now shes a doll. She sits on your lap and purrs for England. She also loves to crunch up cooked turkey.
Leviticus well he just arrived but hes a big fuss pot but he pretends to be a cross patch. He growls at the slightest thing but I know hes a real baby underneath.
Serafina well shes also new, but shes a very caring and protective queen who guards her little ones (Gatsby, Amadeus, Cleopatra and Tosca) so fiercly.
I spend a lot of my time in my flat with my cats. I don't really like the night clubs and the pubs, I'd much rather be curled up in bed surrounded by cat spirits reading a nice book. This isn't because I am strange, I just choose to live a different way. I don't go mad in the shops and buy myself the latest fashions but do i care? no, I'd rather spend my money on a living breathing spirit, than a lifeless souless material thing..
I keep my house very clean for my kitties sakes at least. I get out of bed on a morning, and on dark days its not for me, its for them. The same goes for going to the shops.
It may seem sad or odd to you but my cats are much more to me than purely just cats. We are a family you see, each one of us unique. Just because they meow and are covered in fluff does not make them any less important. We share good times and bad.
So they smell a bit and eat quite a lot. I don't see how that matters because I will share a life time with them and that in my mind is priceless...
