I can't win

The cats continue to be insane.

Pan-Pan started yowling horribly from the basement. Given that the last time I moved he got so freaked out that he managed to wedge himself irretrievably behind the washing machine, I thought he'd gotten stuck. No such thing. He was fine. I was perplexed. No amount of patting or snuggling could get him to shut the hell up.

I thought he might be lonely. I tried to coax him up the stairs. Nope. The stairs were the enemy all of a sudden. I tried to carry him up, and he freaked out and took a chunk of flesh out of my finger.

It took me a few minutes to figure out what was different than the last time he'd been upstairs: I had turned on the air conditioner in order to be cooler while packing tonight.

*headdesk*

"OHMYGOD! The air conditioner is trying to KILL MEEEEEE!"

He stayed downstairs until he was desperate for the litter box, and now he's cowering behind the toilet. I think I will take pity on him now and switch the thing off.

I have unpacked 14 boxes. Now, to bed.

Hehe, silly kitteh. I'd love to know exactly what goes on in a cat's mind at times like that...

In two weeks, they'll be fine. And back yard!

Ha ha, my kitty did that several years ago when I moved. Wedged himself behind the dryer in the laundry room at the new place.

When I finally managed to get him out, he was covered with paint ... the people who had sold us the house had just painted the laundry room before we moved in. Mr. Kitty had wedged himself between the dryer and the freshly painted wall.

Fortunately the paint hadn't dried, and I was able to wipe it off of him.

Is that him in the icon? Because whoever the cat in the icon is, it looks like it has Groucho glasses on. :D
