“Don’t even think about it,” was one of the phrases to which Jasper would respond. I could almost hear him grumbling under his breath, “I might not do it right now, but you can’t stop me from thinking about it, and you will have to fall asleep eventually.”
My guess is that Nana loves Elvis the most but also understands the value of a little gentle but firm discipline. And just incidentally it helps that Nana can read cats’ minds.
Happy Friday the 13th! Hugs and thanks for all the encouragement yesterday, y’all are the best! ♥️ I only got about an hour of sleep, but the procedure went well and some questions were answered. Nothing too serious. Small hiatal hernia, couple of “itises”, biopsy to see what is causing the gastritis. I vote for long-term stress but we’ll see.
Reminds me of this morning-walked into the kitchen to do a little prep before taking the youngest to class. Sally come trotting through, headed to the basement (aka Kitty Town) for breakfast and a lav visit. 1 minute later, Schroeder starts through (he has a very poor idea of personal space when it comes to Sally), and I say, quietly but firmly, “Don’t.” Schoeder stops, looks at me, looks at the basement door, then turns around and heads to the living room. Skyy (the dog), looks at me as if to say, “You’re good!”
Hmm… my post from earlier is missing. I guess the moderators are getting over zealous again. Let’s try once more (it’s probably safer to post OT stuff when there are more posts anyway):
Update on Skywalker – We’re definitely making progress! She has rubbed against my legs three days in a row when I fixed her breakfast. This morning, she even allowed me to run my hand over her back while she ate.
Has anyone mentioned that Elvis has done a very “cat” thing? He raised his paw to bat, and when called on it, he pretended that he was going to lick it all along!

Nana power comes into its own when they have their own people kittens. They sense mischief, like a disturbance in the force.

Love Elvis checking, or cleaning, his paw in panel 3. It’s a cross between “I meant to do that” and “how did she know”.

Nana’s back at the Big Pink House
Ten times as smart as a Robber Mouse (hey, hey)
She walks in Beauty and she talks like the Queen
Can locate cats who are unseen (hey,hey)
…….
Tell me, what’s Elvis doing with his paw?
Does Nana have him in awe?
Is he taking a swipe or just grooming his fur?
Is this all a game to her?
And tell me,
Where Puck and Lupin are now?
Do they sense the Nana somehow?
And are they on their best behavior
When she visits here?

She’s got Elvis figured out—I think he was going to bat at her. Now, what would she do if Lupin were sneaking up behind her?

To borrow a phrase from Pucky:
Nana’s got a ‘Metric bonkers worth’ of power and influence over Elvis.

Afraid of Nana. Definately afriad. And trying to figure out where her second pair of eyes is.
