Friday the 13th (and I'm a black cat!)

I don't know if anyone out there is superstitious but this combination might be bad for those of you who are! Mum and dad are clearly not superstitious since they have me (the most prettiest black cat in the country) but my grandma is not so sure! I have heard mum say that she is "not a cat/person". Well duh, of course not, she's a human? I have never seen a cat/person before in my life. Mum is silly.

Did you all see Stormy's post today? I always knew she was very wise! Zimmie has been my best pup-bud for a while now so I knew he wouldn't hurt me. And Dave and I share the same colours! Maybe I could be a guide cat for the colour blind? Maybe not, it sounds like a lot of hard work to me.

This morning I went outside as soon as dad got out of bed and opened the door for me. I even climbed over the back fence and visited the neighbours for a bit. But I came home before mum and dad went to work so I am inside where it's warm now. Today it's going to be chilly in Melbourne - about 13deg C - I'd rather be in bed! I slept between mum and dad last night again until dad squashed me, then I moved over to mum's side and slept there. She doesn't squish me like dad does.

After saying to a few pups this week that we never get big storms here we had one last night! There wasn't any thunder but the rain and wind were really loud! I had to sit right next to mum to be safe. Dad patted me to calm me down so I started purring. It was all okay.

Last night there was a big storm at our house. I don't like storms. I am afraid of the thunder. There was lots of thunder and lightning, and heavy rain. I was in the backyard when it started raining so I had to run inside really fast.

When the thunder came I went upstairs and hid under the spare bed. Mum looked for me for ages before she found me. I didn't come out til mum and dad went to bed, then I came and sat in the bathroom with them while they brushed their teeth. I'm glad no-one tries to brush my teeth.

Salvador slept on the mum and dad's bed so I had to sleep downstairs in my bed. I'm sure he does it just to annoy me. Luckily there was no more thunder.
