Quick Update from Oscar the Magnificent

Well did you realise that the way Europe and Australia market and sell Internet time is vastly different?  Yes, yes, I know you didn't realise that I was so technically savvy, but really it is 2013 now and I have to stay up-to-date on so much!

This lady I'm staying with was beside herself to discover that her three friends from France had used up five times the amount of Gigabytes in the month that she would use...and that she completely ran out.

Actually, she never realised how many hours of Internet time I was using to talk with my other Cat friends!  I would wait till she was completely asleep and then sneak out of her bedroom and fire up this machine, talking on Skype and well I do love my movies! 

More Attention!

But most of all, I wanted more of her time!  She can be rather easy to manipulate and because she has such well cared for fingernails, I am in Cat heaven with all the scratching I get her to do.  She does complain a little of the soft hairs I surrender to her grooming, but she will get over it and it gives her something to do.

One morning however, ten days ago now, I believe, she slipped in the kitchen on some water and her face turned white and she stopped moving all together.  I waited and watched closely to try to understand what was wrong.  Eventually she moved and took a long time to get up the stairs.  I can bound up them in about 4.3 seconds!

        ( Here is my belated Christmas wish for you two.  See above for reason of delay.) 

Cat Heaven

From then on till yesterday, she stayed on the couch catching up with recorded movies and segments of series she has never had time to watch.  Best of all I kept her warm and entertained by sitting on her and purring at every possible moment.  It was simply great!

But I wanted you and Miglio to know that as hard as she tries, she will NEVER be able to satisfy me as I require.  It has taken me a lifetime to get you two trained and she is only a novice...but doing reasonably well responding to my every mew!

Miss me...as I miss you, Oscar the Magnificent (and part-time nurse)

Oscar Claus

Happy Christmas!  I hope it's snowing where you are.  It rained all day today, and was only 22 C!  Can you believe that! 

Tis the season to whatever and I have enjoyed so many things this day, including playing with my mouse AND sneaking downstairs while everyone ate their Christmas dinner and exchanged gifts!  (Actually, she coaxed me to come down.  I'm pretty sure she has fixed most places so I can't sneak around and get lost.)

She tried to give me a treat of Fancy Feast Prime Filet of Turkey for my breakfast to ensure I was fully included in the spirit of the celebration day, but I will not be moved from my favourite beef chunks.

It was a great time and I do enjoy the attention of the three French girls, as well.  They each relate to me in a different way and are not so easily bamboozled as She is...but they all dote on me and do everything I wish them to do. 

Christmas Dinner Entertainment

During the Christmas dinner I purposed to entertain them all by casually and carefully inspecting the entire kitchen area thoroughly.  My what a large place this is!   

I could not, however, find a way to open all the intriguing cupboards and will leave this for another day when I have more time and fewer witnesses.  I’m sure I can get lost here and will enjoy the panic She will go into when I do! 

My Present

After She gave the girls their presents, they surprised her by giving her a present made more for me...a beautiful, queen-sized, velvet-feeling, soft blanket – but it is pink!  Regardless, it is soooooooo soft!  

She loves it, but I love it even more.  When she put it on her bed I was on it immediately rolling in ecstasy and luxuriating in the sensual feel of the fabric.   What a purrrrrrfect present!

I passed up the wonderful white wine that you provided, my dear Sabine, although everyone else seemed to enjoy it.  It helped her sleep soundly last night for the first time and that was great.  I also slept well having had such an eventful day. 

It Could Have Been Better

The only way it could have been better is to have you and Miglio here to hold me.  So even though I’m quite conflicted by your absence, I’m remain bravely happy you are enjoying your time away in Berlin.  

If you find any toys you know I’ll like, do not forget me here...waiting for you to come home.  No matter how nice She is, there is nothing like family!
