Crazy cat

OK, so I haven't been updating my blogs for a while. (See "my other blog" @ http://ebetsotherblog.blogspot.com/ for more info. It's in the first post on February 14, 2009, aka: today.)
But on another note, Chika's started acting really crazy. And by really crazy, I mean extremely crazy. Crazier than normal crazy. When she gets catnip, it seems to take a little while before she actually reacts to it. (Although that's more odd than crazy.) But now for an extremely crazier Chika (who is still OK):
OK, so you see where she is on those steps, right?









Well, last night, this happened: OK, so I'm at the dinner table (to my right when I took that pic) when all of a sudden I hear this *thump* behind me. She landed approximately where the toy mouse is (I couldn't get her to cooperate for a picture, so this will have to do).









My imediate reaction was: "Chika, are you okay?"
BTW, that's about 7 feet down. So yeah. Definitely oops. [speaking to Chika] Chika, it's a good thing you're a cat and always land on your feet, because otherwise… Oh, wait. If you weren't a cat you probably wouldn't have been playing up there in the first place.

Chika now has happy points :-)

I gave Chika happy points. Earlier today (around noon, I think), I opened the curtain and shades of my big window. She looked outside for a couple of hours or so. Then, for some crazy reason, she decided to go under my bed and stay there for another couple of hours or so.
Note:
2 things must be known in order for the window part to make more sense.
1. Chika really likes looking out windows.
2. She hadn't looked out a window for quite a while (a couple months at least) until earlier today.

Note (Added February 14, 2009): I have replied to apocryfeline's comment by commenting on this post.

New toy poofed

Only yesterday, my mom bought a new toy mouse for Chika. Next day? Can't find it. Silly cat (;-P) I bet that's why you keep wanting new toys.

… Chika, you're crazy.

What happens when they run out of baskets and fries?

Cat in a box. Comes with a side of popcorn.
(Please note: I am only being silly. I would never actually put either "item" on a menu.)

dradle song parody: kitty song

So that you know the song I made a parody of:
Oh, dradle, dradle, dradle,
I made it out of clay,
And when it's dry and ready,
then dradle I will play.

Now for the parody:
Oh, kitty, kitty, kitty,
I made it out of meow,
And when it gets meowy,
then kitty I will have.
Meow!

Cat toys

If you need a toy for your cat, look around your house. For example:
- string
- box
- plastic bottle cap
- pompom
- paper football
That's I can think of for now, but I will add more to the list as I think of them. Meow!

Cats > alarm clocks

Chika has now proven beyond a doubt that cats are better than alarm clocks. How? Well…
I'm asleep in my room, and at about 12:00 PM, I wake up to these rustling noises. Guess who? … … … … … Chika! I almost go back to sleep, but then I change my mind and go open the shades of the big window in my room so that Chika can look outside. Now I do a couple other things, then say, “Hey Chika! Wanna come downstairs?” and then go downstairs. Of course, she stayed in my room for a little while to finish looking out the window.
Please note that the proof is not scientific. Plus, I'm a pretty light sleeper sometimes. All I'm really trying to do here is be amusing. The anecdote is true, though. :)

What crazy places does your cat sleep in?

Here's where my cat sometimes sleeps:

Chika seems to want something.

OK, Chika. Give me a minute…

(BTW, here's a mostly unrelated to my blog note: my time zone was set to pacific time, but I'm in the eastern time zone. It's fixed now, but the posts before this one were posted 3 hours earlier than they say they were.)
EDIT: Apparently there's an auto time change for all posts upon changing time zone, so actually all the times are correct now.
