Psst, psst, psst, psst. Hey guys – sorry fur whispering but I have a purretty big secret I’d like to share with you all and don’t want Joey to hear me. Before we go any further, purromise me cat’s got your tongue.
Joey and I share a big basket of toys ranging furrom balls, kicker sticks, strings to chase, laser lights to catch, and more. As I’m sure many of you can relate, having a sibling means unwilling to share your toys – even your favfurrite one. My purrsonal favfurrite is this furry catnip stuffed mousie with a bright orange tail. I carry this thing in my mouth all ovfurr the house, bat it around, and even snuggle with it. Joey has repeatedly tried to steal it furrom me. In the words Stephanie Tanner furrom Mom’s favfurrite 90’s sitcom, “How rude!”
I was tired of sharing my catnip mousie with Joey, so here’s where my secret comes into play. I’ve created a secret hiding spot. See the shower behind me? That’s my hiding spot and purrsonal toy box. You see, it’s not unlike me to follow my humans in the bathroom as they prepare fur the shower. Sometimes I even have to poke my head in to make sure they’ve washed behind their ears. When they exit, it’s my duty to drink the left ovfurr water at the bottom of the shower. All this daily behavior makes my secret hiding spot even less suspicious to Joey; especially since he doesn’t dare enter the shower fur whatefurr reason. When the coast is clear, I leave my mousie in the shower until I’m ready to play with it again – without the worry of Joey taking it furrom me.
The only downside is sometimes my humans get back to the shower before I do, which means my mousie gets all wet and isn’t as much fun to play with. Does anyone recommend a new secret hiding spot? Just don’t let Joey hear you.
