Christmas list
Turpitude and I discussed our Christmas lists this morning, and she has decided that she would like the following:

1) a bird on a stick (tm Dad)
2) a good kitten-grooming brush
3) a wooden or rope scratching post with a carpeted platform high enough that she can sit on it and watch the guinea pig

She finds these to be reasonable demands, but she has obviously not recently priced decent scratching posts. :)

She's likely related to Halley.

...that's not really the word I would use to describe Halley. But...

I was acutally referring to the

Oooooh. Potentially-- would have to actually plan and make the time. Should look into that. :) Thanks for the links!

Fred and Padma would like to recommend the Whiskers City cat scratchers. They're cardboard, not wood, and lay flat on the ground, but they're only $5-10 and they last a while. Fred has to get the double-wide one because he's so fat big.

They also like the cat cubes that Target sells. They're fabric and wire flexible squares that link together and the cats can crawl through them and hide.

My kitty ignores the real scratching post I bought her, preferring the cheap cardboard ones. I think that Cosmic Cat makes them. They come with catnip in them. Seriously, the cat toy industry is a racket. Mine amuses herself all day long with bottle caps and rubber bands and other found objects.

Dad might be willing to make a carpeted platform post if Twerp asks nicely.

Twerp will ask *very* prettily then. :) I'll be getting her a nice fabric carrier this fall so that she can come to Charlotte and ask in person and everything!
