I lost my last kitty, Nugget, last year to congestive heart failure. I no longer have any of my own fur babies, but I do have lots of grand-kitties and grand-pups to share with you.
They were into everything. They pulled all kinds of stuff off of shelves, broke two of my window blinds, and knocked things off tables. They could open cabinets, and they got up to the highest places in the house they could get to. They were even contemplating trying to jump up on the ceiling fans! I actually had to close them in my guest room when I needed a break, and definitely when I left the house and when I went to bed at night. I think taking care of my two little granddaughters is actually easier than taking care of these adorable little menaces!
I think they may have a little Siamese in them, not just by their naughty streak, but something about their eyes, too. I've known people with Siamese kitties, and they seemed to be very active and a bit naughty as well. Luckily, they were as cute, sweet, and loving as could be in between all the naughtiness.
Are you a cat person? Have you ever had any naughty kitties?
I'm linking up over at Feline Friday. :)
Cats are okay, I like dogs better:) Oh yes we babysat our daughters cats one time they were a real active pair and got into lots of trouble:)
ReplyDeleteI love both. Since your daughter had two, I wonder if it's having a partner in crime makes them more naughty?!
DeleteI love ❤️ cats 🐈 Beautiful cats...Scout and Audrey are adorable.
ReplyDeleteMe too Linda and thank you! :)
DeleteOh my, what little holy terrors! My cat Her Royal Highness was a tuxedo cat too, but she was very well behaved, apart from clawing one armchair and having occasional accidents outside the litter box when she was old. She only ever broke one thing -- a glass Christmas ornament which I'd foolishly hung on a lower tree branch within her reach.
ReplyDeleteThey were little terrors, lol! My Nugget was a tuxedo as well but he wasn't naught like that - but he did boss me around a lot, seriously!
DeleteHow cute! I've never had a cat because I'm allergic. But I have a dog.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary. I love dogs too. :)
DeleteI am not a cat person. My best friend growing up had a Siamese cat and that thing was always freaking me out! I've actually never had any pets besides fish, but I like calm dogs.
ReplyDeleteMy childhood best friend had two, and not only were they wild, but they were really mean!
DeleteOh wow. I'm not a cat person. I'm allergic. My eyes would be so red and puffy if I ever babysat at a home with a cat when I was a teen. I don't think I realized that kittens could get into that much trouble. My uncle had cats. They are cute, but I cannot go near them.
ReplyDeleteMy youngest son is allergic too. We had cats and it never dawned on us that his allergies were related. When he grew up and moved out his allergies disappeared. He has a cat again now, lol!
DeleteMy cat can't be trusted to leave goodies alone on the counter and she's a good jumper, even at her age. She can turn on the kitchen sink so I have to lock it with two hair ties. I love her, but won't get another cat after her. She also can be destructive to furniture with her claws!
ReplyDeleteMari definitely sounds a wee bit naughty too. Definitely no more pets for me either.
DeleteThey are a very pretty pair! Maybe they were naughty since they weren't in their own home. Or, just their age and two of them having fun! My cat is almost 15. I didn't have her as a kitten, she showed up in the backyard in 2020, with a chip from Texas that had no info.
ReplyDeleteThey really are pretty little things. My daughter says they are really naughty at home too, but it could just be their age and having two together probably doesn't help make things any calmer. Kitties that just show up are the best. I've had a couple like that myself over the years.
DeleteThey are beautiful. Yes, I'm a cat person and I've had a few naughty kitties. Loved them too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mari. Of course we love the naughty ones too, but boy were they ever a handful!
DeleteThey really are cuties! We have three of our nine that are in to everything but they will out grow that need.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Let's hope they outgrow it - fingers crossed!
DeleteThey do look cute ...
ReplyDeleteWishing you a happy Friday and weekend too.
All the best Jan
Thanks Jan!
DeleteUh oh, they look like trouble. Yes, I'm a cat person, but I haven't had a cat in ages. (No room where I live.)
ReplyDeleteThey definitely were, lol. Sorry you can't have a kitty where you are.
DeleteThese kitties are so cute! That's probably why they get away with being little stinkers. I am definitely a cat person and have one cat who is also naughty but too cute for me to care too much.
ReplyDeleteThanks Suzanne. Their cuteness definitely gives them a free pass to get away with doing naughty things!
DeleteWhen Danny and I got married twenty years ago, he had a cat, Allie, and I brought Jordan, my cat, and a dog, Maggie, to add to the mix and step family. Oh, my, those cats hated each other from day one, but we survived. Just another testament to the power of love, I guess. His boys loved Maggie and were so excited to have the first dog in their lives. Do we have pets now. A big, resounding NO!!! It's just too difficult at our age. Blessings, Martha!
ReplyDeleteThat must have been a bit of a crazy time with two cats in the house together who hated each other. Cats are some funny creatures. I'm glad it all worked out!
DeleteI don't have pets but did meet my sister's new cat today -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteYou should show us a photo!
DeleteYES, we love cats! Meow, Scout, Audrey.
ReplyDeleteMeow from Audrey and Scout! :)
DeleteThey look so cute and innocent! "Naughty? Who? Us? No way!" I love cats.
ReplyDeleteThey were SO naughty, but sure did enjoy the little cuties anyway. :)
DeleteMaybe they could have used that scratcher bid that I bought for Precious, lol. I am sorry to hear that you lost your sweet angel last year. It's so difficult to lose a pet when it's lived with you so long.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lynn. Losing my Nugget was so sad. He was my little buddy. It had just been the two of us since my husband passed away. It's always hard losing our pets no matter what. :(
DeleteScout and Audrey are adorable. They must have felt very comfortable with you. Otherwise, they would have spent the time cowering under a bed or chair.
ReplyDeleteThanks CJ. They did hide behind the couch for the first hour they were here and the rest is history, lol.
DeleteI'm a cat person, but I grew up in New York City housing that prohibited cats (and dogs) so I never had the urge to have one in my life. My son and his partner, though, have two cats. I think one has Maine Coon in her and she is a love - so big, so gentle. The other, a grey cat, hides and I've never seen her in person.
ReplyDeleteMaine Coons are gorgeous cats. I had one that was a mix, she was the sweetest kitty ever. I have two hiding grand-kitties too. If I search and find them they hiss at me, lol!
DeleteAt one time I had 4 cats and yes, they can be naughty. They used to us my furniture for scratching posts and there were climbers too!
ReplyDeleteI've had some destroyed furniture through the years, but that just comes along with having kitties. I don't think I ever had any who were climbers but I had one who could jump way up to high places!
DeleteI also had 2 dogs at the time and they were much better! I don't have any pets now but remember the ones I had. They were good companions! Love, ma
ReplyDeleteThey are definitely great companions, but they are a lot of work too. I know I won't be getting any more, I'll just enjoy my kid's fur babies now. Have a nice weekend Ma. :)
DeleteI am not a cat person. I think they are cute (from a distance) but I am a dog gal. I love dogs and would love to have one again, but most likely I will not.
ReplyDeleteI love both, but I will not be adopting any more.
DeleteThey ARE adorable :) We're on a fur child break ourselves except for the feral we feed out back to keep the mice and rats away since we live on the highway near a field. I had a Balinese Siamese once that was THE sweetest thing ever! But, over the years I've also had Heinz 57's that were just as naughty as your grand kitties.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tamy. I guess some of them are just naturally naughty!
DeleteThey are beautiful, even if they're naughty!! How sweet of you to cat sit in your own home!
ReplyDeleteThanks Suz. I didn't have much of a choice. They were new to her kitty family and couldn't be kept with the others yet. I was able to just run over for an hour everyday to tend to the others, but I didn't want these two to have to be closed up in a small room by themselves the whole time she was gone.
DeleteIf I had to pick between cat and dog definitely cat.
ReplyDeleteBut I am secretly a tortoise girl.
I love them too Tobia! :)
DeleteI'm cat person, too, until I figured out that I was allergic to them. After the last of our 4 cats died last year, we haven't gotten anymore. It is lonely without them, but I'm not as miserable as I was.
ReplyDeleteThe same thing happened to my youngest son. We always had cats and didn't realize that what was causing his allergies until he grew up and moved out. His allergies just disappeared. I would feel like a horrible mom except for the fact that he now owns a cat, lol!
DeleteWe are down to one cat, and have decided to keep it that way. Link Linker the Stinker is 12 and thinks he's still a kitten, although he plays with everything, he seldom actually is destructive.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad he's still young at heart, that's a good thing. I've had a lot of kitties over the years but never any that were as destructive as these two little wild ones were.
DeleteI adore cats. Jet passed away three years ago and even though I wasn't ready TBG wanted us to adopt another. We met Binx (whose name was Cole at the time). He was found at 4 weeks old roaming around alone and taken to the no kill shelter. He was only 2.5 pounds so they couldn't give him any shots and kept him in a large cage in the front office away from all of the other cats/dogs. At 12 weeks old and 3.5 pounds we rescued him. When we got him home, he hit the ground running he was so happy to be out of that cage. He was and still is so full of energy it is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI remember Jet, Lori, and I think I was still blogging when he passed away. I remember checking in on you later and seeing that you had adopted Binx. I was so happy for you! I'm so glad you rescued him and gave him a perfect forever home! :)
