In case you wondered what the back of Canasta’s head looks like.
Sure does love that scratcher!
Canasta has reached the stage of pregnancy where she tries to scratch under her chin, but can only get her back foot up as far as her side, so she kind of scratches the air. Watching her sit with her back foot scratching the air while she stares off into space with her crossed eyes is pretty funny – but of course once I’m done laughing at her, I scratch under her chin for her. I’m not a MONSTER.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh, that Khal. He is just so MAGNIFICENT.
I haven’t been able to get it on video yet, but if Khal wants me to pet him, he sits and stares at me, and turns his head slightly to the side. If I don’t pet him, he turns his head more. And so on until his head is turned as far as he can get it, and then he peeps his high-pitched peep at me until I give in. How I have not squeezed him ’til the marshmallow fluff comes out his ears, I do not know.

Regarding Khal, neither do I!
The difference in Khal from when he showed up to now is amazing! He wouldn’t even let you LOOK at him!
I know, it’s amazing – when we first moved here just over 3 years ago, I couldn’t touch him!
I love that Khal has a little meep voice! My “tough” outside cat, fmr, a big ginger tabby, also had a little meep voice. Meanwhile, my other cat at the time, a skinny lanky tuxedo, had a voice similar to my current Siamese cats, always talking and howling. My boss has huge Maine coon cat that sometimes comes to the office to visit. He is easily twenty pounds (the cat; the boss weighs quite a bit more), plus glorious fur so he looks even bigger. And he has a little meep voice, too!
The bigger they are, the smaller they meep!
Hi Robyn, we need videos of both please!
I’m tryin’! 🙂
Khal has come so far from the stray who wouldn’t let you near him. It just warms my heart so much. And the “pet me now, please” routine is adorable!
He is just SO SWEET (and SO demanding)!
Khal,
What a feral fail,
Would I be a monster if I want to see Canasta scratch the air? Followed by chin scritches of course.
Oh, I’m trying to get a video of it but of COURSE she just knows when I’m trying!
