1625.0. "Bandit's got some stiff competition!" by IAMOK::HTAYLOR (Me and my lil' pots o' purrs.) Fri Aug 05 1988 16:14

    My dear Snooks has acquired a new nicname.  TROUBLE!!!  If there's
    trouble in the house, 99% of the time, snooks is smack in the middle
    of it!  Last night we were eating dinner when all of the sudden
    we heard something scratching at the window.  I looked over and
    there was snooks hanging from the window pane.  I grabbed her and
    put her down.  Not 5 minutes later we hear the same noise again.
    There she is again, hanging from the window pane.  She was after
    a spot on the window.
    
    Last weekend, we had some friends over.  Snooks and Micki were playing
    on the floor in the hallway.  Snooks decided that she had had enough
    of Micki and she was going to see what we were doing.  Well, one
    of the women had on a pair of long earrings.  they had gems in them,
    which added to the excitement.  Snooks jumped up on the back of
    the couch and started batting at her earrings.  I was in the kitchen
    at the time (which is behind the couch) and I saw her.  I came up
    behind her and tapped her and said, "GET DOWN!"  I startled her
    when I came up behind her and she jumped down onto the end table,
    knocking over the lamp, the ashtray, and the woman's drink.
                                
    
    The thing that happened two weeks ago topped them all, though. 
    Silver was in heat.  You've got to remember that when when snooks
    first came to the house she kept attacking silver.  Well, snooks
    decided that this was her chance to get back at Silver.  Silver
    was laying on the floor with her butt up in the air.  All of the
    sudden Snooks came by, saw her chance, and jumped and BIT Silver
    on the BUTT!  Silver didn't react so she jumped and bit her again!
    I yelled "SNOOKS!  Stop that!" and she looked at me and said, "I
    was only getting her back!".

    HA!
    
    I'll bet there's a law someplace that would prevent us from putting
    Snooks, Bandit and Aja in the same room. Public nuisance or
    something...

    I just reread my note and found a mistake.  In the last paragraph
    I meant to say that Silver kept attacking snooks when snooks first
    came into the house.

    How many pusses do you have now, Holly? I forget.
    

    Hi Karen,
    
    There are four of us now.  
    
    Tabbatha, Silver, Micki, and snooks (aka. TROUBLE!)
    
    

    
    	Well folks, I hate to tell you, but Bandit is no longer a
    	trouble maker.  He NEVER does anything naughty!!  All he
    	does is eat, sleep, wrestle with T.K., and walk meowing
    	with his kitchen mitt in his mouth.  Occasionally he will
    	chase moths and other bugs.  But the days of broken dishes,
    	and shredded paper are gone.  Well, alright, last week,
    	for the first time in months, I arrived home to find the
    	napkins on the floor.  But I think T.K. did this because
    	Bandit can't (or won't) get on the counter.  He hurt himself
    	jumping off right after being declawed and hasn't been
    	up there since.
    
    	Now T.K. on the other hand....  he is the trouble maker.
    	That cat never sleeps!!  He is the most high strung cat
    	I have ever seen!   Into absoultely everything.  So, in
    	my house, T.K. has the honor of being the official feline
    	terrorist!  Bandits too lazy.
