I love my cats, but...

It must have been Duchess horking last night, because while I was out at dinner Little Girl threw up in the pile of cat toys and just now Jackie let loose all over a brand-new jigsaw puzzle. While I ran to clean that, Jackie also got the hallway in two places and the carpet once. (This leaves about eight more to go for her normal pattern. Most of those will be small.)

I am officially tired of this.

Um, this should go without saying, but please don't give advice unless you know my cats or their environment. If you do, though, I'm listening.

Smokey tends to be pukey sometimes.

You know you've gotten kinda laid back about it when one cat pukes, and you have the "oh damn!" reaction, and then another one rushes over and starts to eat it, and you think "oh cool, I won't have to clean it up, at least not all of it!" and then finally, when THAT cat immediately rejects it and you think "oh great ... twice cooked barf ... just what I wanted to clean up!"

This vignette brought to you by Smokey and Scampi, in that order.

And sorry... that was a gross story, I know!

OH YES! If one of them pukes and it's really not very digested, I tend to wait a few minutes to see who else might be hungry. Disgusting, I know, but it sure is easier to clean up the residue than to clean up the whole pile!

Nasty! Reminds me of dogs!

When I was growing up we had a dog and we had rabbits. Your imagination can fill in the rest of that disgusting story.

Not to mention rabbits all on their lonesome...

Yes indeed. Apparently the dog figured that what was good for them must also be good for him. I suppose it did save on cleanup.

Actually, dogs will eat barf, too. You need a dog! :)

Maybe dogs will eat annoying pukey cats! Okay, I love my cats and I don't want them hurt. But man, some days.
