What can i say? My cat (spike) is a psycho, she drives me mad, i am at my whits end and i dont know what to do about her..... She just runs around the house like a mad thing and then runs up the curtains (not happy about this) and then jumps up the door frames trying to get at nothing.....
We not long had her spade thinking this would settle her down, but it has not, even with stitches in her belly she still ran around like an idiot... causing there to be fluid buildup which has meant 2 trips back to the vet to get that drained.... They tell us that we need to keep her contained and not let her run around, not really possible!!! We have taken to locking her up in the hall/laundry/bathroom area (all tiled) unfortunatly these all have slidding doors and we have to have this elaborate system of using our dumbell set to weigh the door shut as she has worked out how to open them. Not the use i was hoping for with the dumbells. However this does not restrict her... she then at 2.30 in the morning starts banging on the door and crying, hence waking Tim and I up.... I really dont know what to do.
I love her dearly and she is just a beautiful cat but i cant have her ruining my house and furniture and keeping me up at night, it is all just too much.
Horse on the other hand is beautiful, he is a pure bread maine coon (will try and get a pic of them) (this pic is a pic similar to horse, it has the same markings and colour) he is a red/ginger and has LOTS of fur, and cost $950 a rather expensive cat i think... but he does not do anything near as bad as spike... they play but he will only run around the house not rip anything up. Although i think Horse sits there every night and pulls great chunks of fur out and leaves it lying around the house.... Pets!!! Who needs them.... Maybe i will just get a ferrett.

Got up early today (first time in a couple of weeks) and went off the the gym and done moderate cardio, loved it and still had some time and so fit in 10 min on the stepper just to change it up a bit. And then done some Abs.... was a bit puffed in the end.
After going to the gym at lunch yesterday for an eliptical session, i discovered that this is a great time of the day to go and will do this more often when work permits.... there is no one there and you can relax and get into your workout and not have to fight anyone for the equipment. I went back after work and done my incline treadmill and then went home and done some abs whilst watching TV... perfect distraction and i dont really know how many i got done i just kept going till i got sore. As a result my legs are very achy today and my abs hurt if i cough or sneeze, all in all i think that it is pretty positive.
Am off to Mildura this weekend again, for my high school reunion, we are meant to be having a BBQ and drinks and then go off to the pub later. I am going to have to have this as my free night i think as it will be the only way i can get around this sort of function. I am not so sure about how much i will be drinking or what i will drink yet, i might just stick to keeping it simple and eating light and drinking little with plenty of water in between.
Hope you all have a fantastic weekend....

Ahhhh, don't you just love junior mogs! I have one too, I think he's a teenager. Runs around like an idiot, terrorises other cats, etc, etc. Gradually training him out of scratching the stereo speakers, but it's a hard road. Lots of shouts of "NO!!". He's slowly getting the idea. He gets immediately plonked onto the scratching box and scolded for being naughty!
We do have some scratched furniture - I think that comes with the territory unfortunately with 3 cats! Although we have timber blinds, which I think is a godsend instead of curtains (I hate to think what curtains would be like with Steve!!!)
Gotta love 'em though!
