Report from Julia, the Very Pretty Kitty

[luscious_purple]

Today was a HORRIBLE day! I was taking a nice afternoon nap when Mommy petted me, then picked me up and put me on that low flat thing that moves around. Then she HELD me while Daddy took this buzzy thing and made more of my fur come off. I DO NOT LIKE being held so that I can't jump and run around. Daddy said he was giving me "another trim." Do NOT WANT "trim"! Then Mommy sprayed me with something WET!! Yuck!! She said it was "anti-hairball solution." I don't know what that means, but WET is BAD!

After the human supper Mommy and Daddy went out somewhere. I was just sitting on the human bed and trying to fall asleep when I heard BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! That was VERY scary!!! I went under the human bed and did NOT come out until my people came home and the BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! stopped. At least Mommy and Daddy did not hold me and do the buzzy thing again. I was so scared.

Chocolate would like to commiserate about the BOOM! - he says his crate is the best place to hide, because it has a nice blanket that smells like him and his humans and it's dark and the BOOM! can't get him there. (And that this BOOM! is at least not a BOOM! with flashy lights and wet and funny smells in the air.)

Poor Chocolate! My Brandi dog used to hate the latter kind of BOOM! too.

I'm sure that the underside of the bed functioned like a crate for Julia (who is, of course, very much smaller than Chocolate). I hope the mattress and box spring helped to muffle the BOOM!

Chocolate is pretty convinced that all sorts of BOOM! are bad and awful and evil, but thunderstorms are the worst. And the mattress and box spring probably did help muffle the BOOM! (I know mattresses work to muffle thunder, at least for human ears anyway.)
