Peek!

January 28, 2013 By Gail 2 Comments

I know, I know, I write about too many Pudgy behaviors.  And no, I’m not talking about trying to zip my jeans after a chocolate orgy, although that could bring us down the pudgy-speak road rather quickly.

In this case I mean I probably blog about our cat, Pudgy, too much.  In my defense she constantly amuses me, so why wouldn’t I share that?  We could all use more happy, right?

What she’s been doing lately that cracks me up is “hiding” without really hiding. She seems to think I can’t see her, and plots her attack on my feet or other convenient body parts.

I’ll be reading, for instance, and will feel that “somebody is looking at me” feel that gives me goose bumps.  Looking around I’ll spot Pudgy in the middle of the room, body frozen with one paw in mid-stride, staring at me.  I swear it’s as though she’s trying to hypnotize me into thinking she’s not about to race over, plaster her body around my foot in a sumo wrestler death grip, and commence gnawing on the most tender and juiciest of toes.

“Pudgy,” I say. “I can see you.”

She doesn’t blink, but her other paw moves just a teeny bit closer—in slow motion—towards my foot.  We stare at each other until it hurts.  Another tiny step closer…

“Pudgy!”  She keeps coming at me with the speed of the Internet on Black Friday.  “I can SEE you.”

Finally she leaps at me…I’m supposed to act completely surprised…and follows through on her murderous plans.

Her other game is hiding under sheer or translucent objects.  She can obviously see me, but doesn’t think I can see her.  I play along and say, “Where’s Pudgy? Wheeeeeere’s Pudgy?”  After a climatic minute or two she makes her move and slaps at me before racing off to find another hiding spot.

Goofy? Yes, we both are. But, her playfulness is the best part of my day.

A Message From Gail

Through my blog and website, I hope to share beauty, laughter, inspiration, aging & midlife lessons and advice on dealing with menopause. I will also devote time to integrative health and healing tips and news. I want feedback and questions because, while we may be sharing the journey, every woman has her own experience and her own story.

    Humor has the capacity to point absurdities about the best way we stay our lives in a
    non-threatening approach.

    after two years of frustration, my site is finally in the top ten thanks to links from US federal government. http://dlfhyb.com…
