(WordPress freaked out on me and posted this a week earlier than I intended, so if a phantom post showed up in your feeds, this is it!)
This is Sid.
We took him in from a friend who had another cat, a dog, and a baby. She had to give him away because Sid needed too much attention. Seriously.
Sid likes:
-Extreme cuddles. He is a cuddle-bug who will clamber onto your lap, pillow, or desk just to be near you.
-Purring and drooling while you rub his ears.
-Chasing bottle caps. They make such a wonderful sound when they skitter across the floor.
-Impossibly small spaces. Boxes. Laundry baskets. Underneath the bed. The back of the closet. Your suitcase.
-Sitting on your keyboard while you’re working on an important email/paper/blog post/project. He just wants to gently remind you that your priority should always be the cat.
Sid dislikes:
-Playing with Jack. Jack does not realize this and thinks they are best friends.
-When you kick him out of the room at the crack of dawn. In his mind, 5am is Pay Attention to the Kitty Time.
-When his 6pm dinner time is not strictly adhered to. This is an inexcusable human error.
-Playing dress-up. Despite our efforts to convince him that it really is fun to dress up as a chicken.
He is really cute!
I tricked Sid this afternoon. As I was leaving for the lab, he was inside the box spring. So I found a bottle cap and threw it around and he came running out and I nabbed him.
