Andy didn’t get the message yesterday, I guess, because he’s within grabbing distance on the computer desk, one arm’s length away from my keyboard!
He was sleeping, then I felt a presence…. You cat (and dog!) people know the presence I mean: of two little eyes staring at you, taking in every move.

I am watched. Andy may have a chance of escaping me today…for awhile!
I see you, Andy. You aren’t as stealthy as you think! Or is he? I haven’t caught him yet, and he is fast on his paws if he sees a hand reaching toward him.
I think that’s a trick cats use to make us think we’re in charge. Sit right next to us but manage to get away when we reach for them. 🙂
LOL! Sometimes I snatch Andy up when he pulls that stunt, and he always seems genuinely amazed!
I know that presense too well!!
LOL!
Sorry for the confusion and I am not moving to another site. The new sites do not have any way of buying extra media space and I can no transfer what I have at sunset dragon.
I like the new name — dancingbarefootinthefog! I see you’ve deleted it, though.
Hi this is Ruth (Alis Mama) and I have moved to a new site.
Great name! See you there and at your old site, too!
Yes, I know these staring eyes! 😀 Sally used to watch me standing in the kitchen and cooking a meal…I might have forgotten something important!
Yeah, I get that, too! Andy is terrible about hanging out at my feet when I make food, even though I never give him any human food. I guess he figures if he sticks around long enough, I’ll eventually give in.
I think I understand an animal’s sense of stealth because my little pet birds do much the same thing — If I stick a hand into their cage they go into a flying fit but then they settle down and sometimes even jump onto my finger and stare me in the face with that sweet little stare of theirs.
Nothing like having a bird hop on your finger! Of course, they can do some serious damage with their beaks if you present that finger in a threatening way! Ha! (I’m sure you don’t need me to tell you that!)
My birdies do not bite — they nibble gently!
They must really trust you then!
My smallest birdie, “Sugar” will “Escape” from his cage during cleaning and fly to the floor and sit at my feet waiting for me to pick him up and put him back into his cage. He will peck the inside of my hands gently as I am transporting him back home but if I sit on the couch and hold him in my cupped hands he will sit there silently looking out through the opening in my fingers just as contented and happy as if he were in a nest or something.
Cute! I’ve always liked birds and they are very entertaining to watch.
Andy definitely keeps you on your toes and just look at that sweet little face.
He really does, and he does have a kittenish face. I think he has the cuter face of the two boys, though Dougy has a handsome one, too!

Are you familiar with this blog? I just learned about it in the past week. ) No shame in being a “not-dog” person!
How dull life might be without this daily chase! He is luring you into a false sense of security.
Surprise! Surp[rise! I caught him reight off, and dosed him up! Of course, tomorrow, I have to get him and his brother to the groomer by 7:30. That usually puts a fair amount of stress of cat and man.
oh my, 7:30am appointments should be illegal! UGH.
I’m already wide awake by 2:30, so 7:30 is “do-able”~
Double ugh. Sleep is so evasive for chronic sufferers. I hope the appointment goes well.
If I catch the cats without drama, that’s the tough part. Andy’s at my feet just now, and Dougy is over by the dining room table. That can change in an instance if I try to put one in the carrier. It’s the second one that usually is the tough onew!
He is taunting you. Game on!
Hee! Hee! I caught him immediately after posting this. No sweat!
After a day of mind numbing research these posts make me smile….thanx….chuq
My pleasure! I aim for light humor, though I occasionally get on a high horse about politics or apartment issues…!
