Your eyes are big, your tail is puffy and I don't trust you.

Fezzy, my pink tabby, was sitting on the futon looking at me with big eyes, so super cute but his tail was twitching like he was up to no good. And you really shouldn't trust a cat with a twitchy tail. Some people say you shouldn't trust a cat at all. I am not one of those people. But when their tail is twitching... be cautious of claws.

Kitty friends. Somehow the kitty friends have fleas. Fezzy and Monkey originally got them from Friday who had become an indoor/outdoor cat. Then we treated them; cleaned them up. Got rid of the fleas. Friday unfortunately disappeared. Fezzy and Monkey both got out once on their own. But months and months without fleas. Somehow they have fleas again.

I know as seasons change fleas shore up their winter homes in their favorite furry animals. But kitty friends don't go out. We live on the 3rd floor of an apartment. Damn it fleas. You are so not welcomed here.

And you're making the cats crazy. But there are a lot of haikus written about you.
