Introducing Drill Sergeant Nefertitti

Neffie keeps Q company. Everywhere Q goes, so does Neffie. She particularly loves sharing his bed. I will post more pics later. But the best is when we sleep in on the weekends. My loving cat turns into a terror! Every weekend I usually wake up earlier than everyone and manage my way to the couch for some quiet internet time (meaning no television on!). Neffie refuses to join me. Rather, she sits in the bedroom doorway watching Alan sleeping with a really bad attitude. I tried calling her to no avail. When Alan finally got up (she woke him up), she marched him down the hall - Neffie leading, Alan then Q following. She had her ears back and was chirping and making these growly sounds. She marched them right into the kitchen for her breakfast. French Chartreux are mute! It was the funniest thing I had seen in a long time!


So this weekend I was determined to capture her on film. She raked her nails across the side of the mattress to wake up Alan. I grabbed the camera. This is the best shot. She is stomping through the living room by the DVD rack on her way to the kitchen. The best part was when Alan stopped and sat on the couch - just to make her wait. She then came and sat in front of him with her ears back and would try and lead him into the kitchen. Now, lest you think she is starving - she has dry food available. This whole output is for the small can of food she used to share with Peri. You just can't be late to breakfast in our house! I look forward to the ongoing saga. Alan said he is not getting up at 5am on weekends just to feed her.
