Maybe he's hungry
Jul. 5th, 2021 09:51 amSo of course I spent a fair amount of time reading about cats and birds. And not getting any really good info. Logically, all the advice assumes the cat roams outside climbing trees and wandering off. Almost every piece of advice started off with "put a bell on the cat". Biggie wears a bell and always has.
One place, however, suggested that if the cat isn't hungry, the cat won't hunt. While I'm not sure that applies to Biggie, it's worth looking into. He has not eaten much lately. At all. He LOVES his pill pockets and his treats but I'm not needing to refresh his kibble tree lately at all. He's never liked wet food. But, I had some in the larder and have tried a couple. He loved the juice from one. Would not touch another was 'meh' about a third.
So today I think I'll go to the pet food store and get a variety pack and see if I can tempt him. IF the pet food store is open. Just remembered to check Instagram and yep they are open today. Nice.
He's actually been more of his old self this morning, crawling up here into my lap and accepting snuggles with no hint a biting action. But, he's also out there now looking for his next victim.
Robby cleaned up the remaining feathers this morning. The birds are gray and the carpet does a great job of hiding their feathers. I thought I'd gotten it all yesterday. But Biggie spent a lot of time in the spot where he'd left the birds looking and rolling around. And then walked by me.

I think this is called The Smoking Gun.
I did find a new Stickie yesterday. This one has bells. It's kind of an adult/Mardi Gras Stickie.

He likes it but doesn't LOVE Stickie Love it. But, he's happy to indulge me a little and he'll play for a few minutes at a time.
And, at the risk of inviting trouble, so far, no feathered gifts today.
There is no baseball today. I finished the latest and last Bosch series yesterday. The spinoff, like the revamped Leverage, will be on IMDB with is basically Amazon Prime with ads, which annoys the shit out of me. I will probably watch both but be pissed off the whole time.
This week has way more events than my normal weeks and next week my brother will be here for a week. So excitement ahead!! But, today, cat food.
