  Cats are wonderful and gorgeous. I love them and they are fantastic and fun and one of the best animals in the world. Most cats are anyway. I think my Blog has reached the stage in its life where I introduce my cat... Pepe. To be technically corect Pepe is my mums cat actually. We got him two years ago from a women who catches stray cats at the Melbourne University.
She bought him in to the veterinary surgery where my mum works as a vet nurse and it was love at first sight. Well she loved him at first sight and when she had cleared all the gunk and God Knows What out of his eyes and he could see he loved her too. He was a very very sick puudy cat. The people at Melb Uni didn't even have to catch him, he was just lying there dying. He had many chronic diseases and was supposedly going to die. But even as he lay there at the surgery he was purring.
The vet told my mum NOT to take him home as he would just die. Well she took him home anyway and that is how he has come from being a terrified street cat who was going to die and was scared of everything to a confident gluttinous couch potato who sits in the window sill all day. Pepe is one of the cutest cats in the world. He is very old and not fat, just big boned. He is a long haired black and white cat and the hair on his face makes his face look big. While he was a street cat he was hit by a car and his jaw is slightly disfigured, not noticably but it makes his tounge hang out so you alwys see the tip of it.
His whiskers are really really long. He also has whiskers on his eyebrows that make him look very wise and fur in his ears. The fur between his claws is really long and his feet are dappled. His purr is really loud even when his not purring because he can't breathe properly. Nethertheless he eats heaps and enjoys running as fast as he can through the house and trying to stop as fast as he can. He's a great eater and runner.
He sleeps for most of the day and spends most of the night running around and hurting himself, sleeping or eating. He used to try and jump up on the bed but he was alot heavier so he would fall down. He is much more careful now. He hits all the walls because we have tiled floors and his 'big bones' propell him into them despite his best efforts to slip and slide around. His tendancies are the most peculiar thing though. When he wants a pat which is always he reaches out with his paws and gently taps you.
It is the cutest thing ever! It has evolved with strict discipline on my mums behalf from a wallop to a gentle tap. He occasionly hits you really hard though and sometimes he bites you on the nose with his few remaining teeth. He is also very peticular about his food and will actually only eat the really expensive fish food. He also goes throughmoods. One moment he will be really quiet cuddly the next he will be really energetic and playful.
He playing generally involves rolling around on the floor or hitting pens and papers of tables. The hitting of pens and papers off tables usually coincides with the trying to study of my mum and I. This brings me to the actual point of the article. Someone has recently invented software for your computer that can tell when there is a cat walking across your keyboard. I hope it sets of an alarm or something because Pepe can be really annoying. As I sit and write on my Blog he sits and purrs next to me on the desk.
Then he tentatively reaches out and taps me on the shoulder so i am forced to pat him. This process goes on for a while till he gets board and cleans himself. Then he hits me again and knowing that i am really busy I force myself to keep typing. So Pepe headbuts me and tries to wipe his slobbery mouth over me which I hate. That still doesn't work so he walks in front of me and begins trampling on the keyboard. It's really annoying but I still love him heaps.
He can be really really really demanding. He is so happy now though and he loves my mum so much. When she is home he rarely comes to me and no one would believe that our cat now is the same cat he used to be. All though he can be really demanding my mum and I both love him heaps. The End. There is heaps and heaps more to my cat and lots more stories so I will write more soon.
