EW!

Three things I have:
* A sofa with high arms.
* A lovely but naughty Monster cat who likes to sit on the arms and back of the sofa.
* Rather long hair.

Some of you will have guessed what happens next.

Mon often reaches out to bunt the back of my head and demand chin scratching. Sometimes she just leans her head against the back of mine and purrs at me, or leans out and clambers onto me for a cuddle. Tonight she was sitting behind me having a good old groom. Then I went to stand up. My hair was caught, I assumed she was sitting on some of it. Oh no.

She had swallowed 18 inches of a lock.

Cat digestive juices ... ew! Thank goodness it's hair washing night!

That's no good - what was Mon thinking! I think it is still better than eating plastic bags, as mine does.

Last night we spotting her casing the joint in preparation for stealing some fish skins. We cleared them all away, only to find later that she had stolen and eaten a cake finger. What kind of cat likes Madeleines? A fat, devious one. *sigh*

She probably reads Proust while you are out and sits around languidly in a very French fashion ;-)

I think she may have started off thinking it was one of her hairs and may as well be licked up, and then just kept going ... A tiny part of me half wishes I hadn't noticed for a little while longer so I could have seen if she would go all the way up to my head ... but that's so wrong ...
