Official 15th Birthday Portrait

Hi everyone, today is my 15th Birthday. Here is my official 15th Birthday Portrait for your viewing pleasure. You have no idea how much of a challenge I made this by not sitting still or looking where I should.

My iPad

In case you've been wondering what I've been up to, I got an iPad!

It's very good. I like the retina display. It makes things look realistic.

Recently I got a new game. For some reason it's called 'Cat Fishing'.

As a game it's quite interesting. It kept me busy for a whole 20 minutes trying to work it out the other night. And that was after it took the parent about 30 minutes to set it up.

Simply put, pounce on a fish and score points. Whatever a point is? I know you can't eat them.

There are good points and bad points. For a start, you don't get wet pouncing on fishes, which is a good thing. This would probably lull most cats into a false sense of security and allow them to take the whole water thing for granted. This is likely to dull the fishing skills - not enhance them. That makes it a very poor fishing simulator.

The main problem I find is, the person who made it could not have had the foggiest idea about cats or fishing. There seems to be a sheet of glass between me and the fish. This makes it impossible to do any fishing. I tried several times to get my paw through, under, around and over the glass and no luck. No fish!

The best thing is, while I'm working the game the parent sits still and watches me. It keeps him out of trouble, so I guess, for that benefit alone, it's worth the effort.

14th Birthday

14th Birthday Celebrations

Hi everyone. On Friday 24 Feb I turned 14. After much wriggling and twisting and turning and looking in all different directions, I finally managed to pose for the staff.

I've had a lot of adventures in my first 14 years and a lot of challenges. But here I am, lookin' good, feelin' good and bein' good. We elll I try to be good, but two out of three isn't bad is it?
