Saying Hello

Tate Street is home to six of the most opinionated felines you will ever come across.  Each day is something new.  So I decided that I would write about them and maybe receive some answers and/or tips along the way. 

I guess at this point you need some background.  I live with my Aunt Ceji and Uncle Richard.  I moved here from the metroplex in December of 09.  I have since become known as "nanny."  This alone should tell you how exciting my life has become. 

Out of the six, three reign supreme.  Their names are Lacy, Puppy and Feddy.  They are the "rulers" of this house.   



I will begin by giving you a brief overview of these three.  The first one I would like you to meet is Lacy.  Lacy is for whom this blog was started.  This cat has so many emotional issues it's not even funny.  Lacy would be the perfect case study for anyone writing a thesis on feline behavior.  She is smart, manipulative and all-around spoiled beyond belief.  Her siblings have annointed her "The Chosen One."  Her every move is fretted over by Ceji.  Ceji swears something neurological is wrong with Lacy, although in truth, 80% of the time, the problems only appear when Ceji is here.  We will delve into the psyche of Lacy in greater detail in future blogs.



The middle child is Puppy (aka Angelica).  Puppy, as with many middle siblings, suffers from an acute case of "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia."  In her world, Lacy garners all the attention, thus forcing her to act out in a negative nature.  When Ceji is not here, all the cats hang out together, sleeping, etc.  The minute Ceji walks into the door, Puppy begins attacking Feddy, over and over again.  She attacks Feddy because she knows she can get away with it...if she were to attack Lacy, she would be banished to live the life of a feral kitty.  As far as Puppy is concerned, any attention is good attention.





Last, but not least, is Feddy.  She is the most misunderstood cat in this house.  When I arrived here, I was told that Feddy was extremely anti-social.  She supposedly would attack anyone without any warning.  This type of attack is commonly referred to as a "drive-by."  I can honestly say that during my 15 months here, I have yet to witness such an attack.  The truth has come out, thank goodness.  The witnessed attacks in the past were merely Feddy defending herself against Puppy.  Since the truth is known, Feddy is much more lovable, no longer depressed.

'In the next couple of days I will introduce the newest additions to the household, as well as submitting stories for your entertainment and analysis.  Thank you for taking time out of your day to read my entry.  Hopefully, in the future, my style will become more fluid.  Have a great day and love your cat.
