I am threatening

More food.....


...or the bear gets it.

I am obstructive

The humans like to watch movies on their computer. The computer occupies a sweet toasty spot in the middle of the 'tatsu. I like this spot. I can warm my belly and still keep an eye on those pesky humans. Sometimes, if the humans are watching a movie, I jump on the 'tatsu, flump down behind the 'puter, and then roll over to push it off the table and get the warm spot. I am a cunning, clever pooka. If I'm very lucky, I can commandeer the male human's beer as well. I am a drunken pooka.

I am bushy

When I get cross, or scared, or grumpy, or excited, or moody, or bitey, or agitated, I make my tail all big and bushy. I look like a scary tiger. I also arch my back and walk sideways, like a really scary tiger. I chase the male human with my big bushy tail and my arched sideways-ness. He pretends to be scared. The humans don't respect my fearsomeness.

I am forgiven

The female human and I have made friends again. She was cross at me and wouldn't give me cuddles before bed. I like to curl up behind her knees and kip. I waited until she was sleeping, and the came in for a cuddle. The female human is very maleable when she is sleepy.
We had a cuddle, I slurped my paw for a bit and then we were friends. I don't like fighting with the female human. She controls the dressing gown privileges.

I am terrorsome

Last night I decided to pounce the female human. She was talking to the male human and didn't immediately fuss my belly when I came to see them, so I pounced her leg and then chased her around the room and tried to bite her foot, but the male human captured me and put a stop to my evil plans. The female human said I couldn't have any dressing gown cuddles that night and she is not speaking to me today until I apologise.
Finally I can get some peace and quiet.

I am warm

It is March. The snow is starting to melt. The sun is warming my belly for longer in the afternoon. I am a happy pooka. I like to lay on the sofa and warm my belly. The male human moved my sofa, so now I am directly in the sun.
The humans still let me get into bed with them to snuggle in the mornings, though. I like my morning snuggles. This morning was great. The humans stayed in bed until 9:30. I am a well-rested, warm, snuggled pooka.

I am clean

I am a clean pooka. Every day I like to clean my feets. I clean between my paddies and bite off all my dead claw casings. The humans get cross because I leave the casings on the floor. Foolish humans. They know I can't reach the bin.
I especially like it when the female human takes me on the balcony and gives me a good brush. She won't do it inside because she says I am too furry. When it is warmer, she and the male human are going to give me a bath and shampoo. It sounds very exciting.

I am royal

I am king of the tower. No room for other bears here. Be gone!

Oh no! I dropped my bear! I can get him.

Just a little further....

Oh. He's gone.

I miss my bear!

Oh! Pom-poms!
