    Just to remark, making tea out of random plants – without research – is research, and you might get into a newspaper report – which you won’t be there to read. I don’t want to hate on an adventurous lifestyle, but Earl Grey is too weird for me.

    What, like look before you leap, inspect before you ingest? ;-)

    Maybe it was face down… now it’s ALL down.

    I misread it as a show home, which would make Sophie a display cat to attract buyers… I hope that isn’t a thing.

    Georgia wants you to appreciate the research. :-)

    I’m not sure if cats in the wild generally have access to sand, except for children’s play facilities. ;-)

    Well, sure, in Egypt (q.v.)

    If you’re asking about me, my hand healed, the scratching post got scratched, and I think I remembered to wear slippers in the house. So on the whole, it was successful, except for the time before of Jinny scratching the furniture to shreds and I suppose we thought it was just a temporary phase, until clearly it wasn’t.

    Like I said, I put a small handful of catnip powder on our scratching post, and Jinny got the idea, she scratched my hand to heck. ;-) But also the scratching post if I wasn’t nearby…

    I expect location is important too. A cat wants a place to look from? And if there’s something to chase – to jump down from and attack? In which case, also consider whether what the cat wants is what you want. ;-) I think Jinny regarded bare feet as prey.

    Uh oh. “The Cat Who Fell to Earth”. :-( Wait, that title’s taken. More than once, I mean, “The Man Who Fell to Earth, but instead of David Bowie (but actually I mean the novel) it’s Sophie”. And probably aliens aren’t involved. Though we still don’t know where that car is from…

    “City on the Edge of Forever” also not wholly a joyful conclusion.

    If you stay out long enough, they open again. ;-)
