today Meatball abruptly realized that there are refugee office plants in the kitchen (they have been there for weeks) and has decided his singular purpose in life is to eat them
we put up a 4 foot tall step-through baby gate when we brought the plants home, but it turns out he can actually squeeze his body through the bars. not in a dignified way, mind you. but he can
we have foiled him with a two-gate system: a short one with small openings that he can’t squeeze through, and the tall one that he can’t jump over. he is now sitting outside our kitchen door rattling the gates with his stupid little mitten hands like an animated ghost prisoner in a Spirit Halloween decoration
update: we underestimated him
why are your doors closed to the public
is this the same Meatball with the Hanukkah sweater????
it sure is
you may also know him as the Meatball who tried to jump into my toilet and the violent sweatervest-wearing accountant cat
tiny accountant harasses human, eats plants
i mean he has to find some way to unwind from his high-pressure job
update:
So how do you guys… get in there anymore?
well my original game plan was opening the white gate and kind of shoving my body through the gap between the wood gate and the grey gate and i am excited to announce that this was not a good idea at all
update: was woken up at 7 AM this morning by Meatball repeatedly taking a running leap at the gates, bouncing off the top one, and then sitting on the floor outside the kitchen beeping confusedly
HOW
So is no one going to comment on the giant cockatiel (?) head wall mount
the most unrealistic fanfic trope, imo, is the one where one half of the pair works in some sort of shop and one is a customer bc I have literally never thought about a customer with anything other than contempt
I was going to rewatch 1931 Dracula again tonight and just as I turned it on a BAT started flying around at my window and wouldn’t go away and I’ve never seen a bat at my house before and let me tell you I’ve been so gay touched starved this quarantine I was about ready to risk letting a wild bat in my room if it meant it could possibly be one tall, Sexy vampire
Ah rabies
But what if the bat was from my secret gay vampire admirer
quarantine mood: walking aimlessly around the house bc you’re tired of sitting down and can’t go outside to exercise and don’t know what else to do and suddenly realizing you have become a jane austen heroine “taking a turn about the room”
