What My Furry Pal Did During the MCO

So, how's everybody holding up to being 'locked up' at home for (yet) an extended period of time?  Well, some of us cooked (a lot more than we ever did), some slept (perhaps too much), some worked (maybe a little?), some cleaned, some gardened, some played computer games, some binged watched entire (downloaded) tv series, a few did some creative and meaningful projects, even fewer exercised while many were probably glued in front of the idiot box way more than they should.  Which category or categories do you fall into? ^_~

Well, my Cookie thinks he's overdue for his spot in the limelight after 'seeing' the many cute photos and blogposts of Ah Girl by her mommy blogger! *jealous mode on*  I better grant him his three minutes of fame.  So, what did my furry pal do during the MCO?

Well, he ate.....slept.......and crapped, of course (like any of us)......among other things!  What else was there to do.


That's him eating.


That's him snoozing to his heart's content.


And that's him peeing.....


.......and pooping (what goes up in must come down out, right?)  To know the difference between peeing and pooping, just watch your cat's butt (and hind legs).  If they're raised...congratulations, you've got poop....kekeke! :D


That's the face of relief...or, should I say, release....hihihi! ;P


Cookie:  Aiks...what are you doing, mommy? O_o  Haiz, I can't even have a bit of privacy when I'm doing my "business"!

In between all that, there was some play time.


Cookie:  My mommy thought she could make me exercise so that I don't become a fatty bom bom but I just rolled around the floor instead to her annoyance. :P


Cookie:  Seriously, ma?  It's not funny.


Cookie:  Hey, I do exercise.....what do you call this if not stretching exercises? :P


There were some boring times too.  This is his favourite chill spot when I'm at the computer (he's exhibiting his 'clingy' behaviour of just wanting to sit close to me).


And when he thinks I'm spending too much time on my computer/blog and not giving him enough attention, he make sure he lets me know.....by plonking his butt on my keyboard which (he knows) will bring me to a complete halt.  Cookie:  Cannot, meh?

But he did do something that none of us did....he went hunting for sport game (maybe both)...and brought home a bird for me (not that I wanted one!).  Unfortunately, I don't have a photo to show you coz we had a visitor that day.....


.....and he ate it.  My neighbour's cat, whom we nicknamed Cowboy for obvious reasons (because his owner puts a red bandana on him instead of a collar), ate the barely alive bird....eww (that sounds awful to us but probably tastes awesome to him)! >_<


He comes uninvited all the time to my porch to oi oi (sleep).


One time, he even self-invited himself all the way into my house to a soft spot! :O  I had to shoo him out.  I told him you can come to my porch anytime to relax...but not into my house as only one cat reigns supreme here.

Anyway, Cookie must have felt like a tai ko (big brother, he's treated as such by Cowboy as he diligently follows him everywhere) by landing a kill and letting him eat it.  I watched him devour the whole little bird (I even heard the crunching sound of its bones).  I'm not sure why the neighbour's cat ate it.  Did he not have enough to eat during this MCO?  Cookie might catch game but he certainly wouldn't eat it (he has eaten too many yummy things to want to eat that).  He has expensive tastes you know...give him pak cham kai (poached chicken) or fried chicken anytime (maybe even roasted pigeon?)...but not a raw bird. >_<


That was at the start of Phase 3 of the MCO.  Three days later, Cookie brought me another gift!  Can you spot what it is?


He brought me a lizard...not any cicak like those that crawl on our ceilings...but a big-ass lizard....a monitor lizard to be exact (even though it's still baby-ish)! O_o  Double eww!!  Don't bring me any more gifts, please. >_<


 I think Cookie broke his neck (that's what big cats in the wild do when they catch their prey...they go for the neck).  Fortunately (or perhaps unfortunately) this time, his friend (Cowboy) was not around that day.  Otherwise, he might have eaten that too...bluek!

If you've kept up with Cookie's stories, you know he's quite the killer....and he likes to dismember his victims...remember his gruesome victims, the grasshopper, lizard and beetle?  The only one that got the better of him was the killer wasp (which he was smart to walk away from).  Luckily, he hasn't brought me a rat...and that's only because he hasn't been allowed out to roam at night.  Phew!


To all the creatures out there.....there's a vicious killer on the loose.  Cookie: I may be deadly but I'm also oh-so-cute...what do you think? ^.^  Be careful, be very careful where you tread...that's why we ask you to duduk diam-diam di rumah.....stay safe, stay home during this MCO (haha)! :D
