Sunday Meme

I have been tagged by the delectable Scout for the 7 Random Things Meme. Yes, yes, another chance to talk about myself. How completely wonderful!

Here are Seven Random Things About Me:

1. I trained the human in taking me for walks with my harness and lead. I walk - she follows. Obviously, I take my time so as to ensure the human becomes agitated and bored. It is far more entertaining for me.

2. I can play fetch but I refused to as soon as Baby Mao arrived on the premises. Call it male ego - he plays fetch with such enthusiasm that I simply cannot muster the energy to join in.

3. I will eat any human food available. To date, this includes (but is not limited to): trifle, brussel sprouts, Yorkshire puddings, baked beans, toast, yoghurt, runner beans, peas, carrots, sweetcorn, hummus, sausages, ham, jelly, ice-cream, KFC, MacDonalds, pizza, chips, coleslaw, salad, spinach, boiled potatoes, oxtail soup.

4. I will raise my paw on command but ONLY if the human offers me temptations. If not - she can forget it.

5. I like Royal Canin biscuits for breakfast, followed by Lamb Chops and/or steak for dinner. Organic meat, of course.

6. I enjoy awakening the human from her snore filled slumber by sitting on her pillow and resting my tail over her fat face. I usually do this just after I have used the litter tray. It is highly entertaining to watch her wretch.

7. At the moment, my sole aim in life is to cause the human slave a serious injury by tripping her on the stairs. I lay in wait every morning, hoping to catch her out but thus far she has avoided my cunning plan. Time will tell, my friends. Mwa ha ha. Watch this space!


I shan't tag any other cats as I believe most of you have completed this meme. If for some strange reason you have not - consider yourself tagged!

Ta ta for now

Thursday Meme

Greetings subjects!


Today I have (once again) to pass over to the spoilt brat ( I mean darling brother) that is Baby Mao. Apparently he is of some interest to some cats and has been tagged for the Seven Random Things meme. I am going to assume you all know the rules and I think everycat has been tagged already - if you haven't, please consider yourself tagged!



Right, I am off to eat steak (again) *yawn *I am so tired of the menu at this place. Handing over to Baby Mao:

Hi everyone!!!! I am so excited that I got tagged for this! Big thanks to Hendrix/Bendrix for the tag! I love to talk about myself, almost as much as my brother does (but not quite). I have decided to incorporate the seven facts into a Thursday Thirteen, so here goes:

1. I think I may be the runt of the litter because I am really quite a small baby boy. Or Yao-Lin is just really huge. My mummy hasn't quite decided yet.

2. I call my humans my Mummy and Daddy because I am the baby of the family and they spoil me rotten!

3. That's not to say I am without airs or graces. I am just not as into the whole ' royal Siamese prince' thing as Yao-Lin. I know I can get my own way simply by being cute!

4. I love cuddles with my Mummy and Daddy. I purr and purr and roll over on my back and get my belly tickled. It's great!

5. I am not bothered by Yao-Lin. He does bully me a little bit but I know that secretly he loves me lots and lots. Especially when I sit on his head to keep him warm.

6. I really do smell of poo. I can't help it, I just do. I get poo on my paws and then I walk around the house. I do it on purpose and Mummy and Daddy still say ' Oh, stinky little Baby Mao, what did you do that for?'. I think they are a bit dense.

7. I am VERY vocal. When I whinge, which is all the time, my Mummy and Daddy jump to attention - they ask ' What's wrong Baby Mao?' and then I whinge some more until I get cuddled or fed.

8. I have really helped Yao-Lin in trashing the house. I scratch and I claw every box and bit of furniture in sight. I do have giant scratching posts but I just prefer the stuff that belongs to my Mummy and Daddy. I only scratch stuff when they aren't here so that they can't tell me off!

9. Mummy and Daddy say I am clever because I can play fetch. *duh* ALL Siamese do that!!!

10. I am scared of the big outdoors. Besides, when Yao-Lin goes out to play, I get fed lots of yummy treats so I don't have much incentive to go out.

11. Sometimes, if there are two food bowls out, I will sit on one and eat from the other. This is so that I don't have to share. I don't really like sharing.

12. My favourite trick is to climb up the curtains and then drop onto Mummy and Daddy's faces when they are asleep. I am small enough to be agile but sturdy enough to cause pain. It is pretty funny!

13. It was my idea to defrost the freezer. I was a bit cross with Mummy and Daddy for leaving me alone for so long. I don't feel guilty at all. Should I?

Well, that's all from me for now. I have to go and annoy my brother. I might just go and fart in his face or something. Ha ha!

Love and cuddles and purrs
