So there we were, Tigger and me, enjoying our Sunday afternoon Easy in the summerhouse with the Staff aka TheAffiliateTypist and all of a sudden the StaffakaTAT murmured something and slowly hauled her ageing bod up from her lowly seat!
As she is now tugging urgently at my whiskers, I shall have to hand over to her for the rest of the story!
Psssst! Come closer! It was a lovely sunny afternoon. The birds were singing, the dogs were barking, the lawn mowers were mowing, the kids were screaming, almost drowning out the sound of the jet fighters from RAF Valley roaring overhead. In fact it was a typical summer's day. I looked up from my book and smiled to myself as I glanced at Austin on one chair and Tigger on the other with me perched precariously on the poof reading my kindle!
The word "idyllic" came to mind. During a lull, as my gaze drifted over the bucolic scene outside, it was suddenly transfixed! "Hello" I said. "Where have you come from?"
(apologies as I had to slightly overexpose the pictures)
She (for I am sure it was a she) was walking towards me while I was talking gently to her. We were connecting, I just felt it!
And then, I heard Austin behind me meowing his displeasure that I'd moved outside without his permission. But he hadn't seen her as he wound himself around my legs trying to herd me back inside. I said "Austin, do you not want to invite our guest in for a ....... UH OH!"
He'd seen her! He suddenly morphed from a loving gentle floofy kitty into a mean and mighty hunter and protector all bristling whiskers and bottle brush tail!
"Austin" I said feebly. "Don't ......... "
It was too late! A blood-curdling scream that was Stephen King meets Edvard Munch filled the air as Austin hurled himself at the Siamese. At this terrible sound, Tigger (and probably half the village) woke up! He stumbled outside and heaved his bulk onto the wall. "Errrr, Um ....?"
The earth tilted on its axis and the anticlimactic aftershock was felt as far away as Llandudno! The Siamese cocked her snook and pitter patted away!
The boys live to nap another day. I do hope the little Siamese comes back, though!

idyllic - the lick that is ideal

Aaaaaaaw Austin and Tigger do look comfy and adowable. Da little meezer sure is a cutey. We hope she comes back too. Now, what da cat is a "snook"? Weez not at all furmiliar wiff dat term. Y'all have a pawsum day and be nice to da hungwy, way too skinny lookin' meezer.
ReplyDeleteLuv ya'
Dezi and Lexi
What a lovely intruder. Too bad the police chased her away.
ReplyDeleteNow Austin, if the little Siamese comes back maybe you should invite her in for some catnip. She might be quite nice
ReplyDeleteOh my Ceiling Cat - WATCH OUT for those snooks! They can be quite dangerous.
ReplyDeleteWow, Austin. You sure did scare that intruder away! She looks like a *nice* intruder, though...
ReplyDeleteShe likely heard how famous you are so be nice to your groupie!
ReplyDeleteInvite her in maybe she has some fishies or chicken
ReplyDeleteLily & Edward
Were you protecting your TAT, Austin? The little Siamese is cute. She may not pose much of a threat so maybe you'll be slightly more welcoming next time...?
ReplyDeleteLove the Word of the Day and accompanying photo. :)
What a cute introoder <3
ReplyDeleteAustin you shouldn´t shace the cute ones away :)
XOXO
What a cute little cat! I hope Austin hasn't scared her away for good.
ReplyDeleteAlthough actually she looks more annoyed than scared.
lol that was a fun filled event, need a big nap after chasing the trespasser away
ReplyDeletedood...we dunno which commint bubble iz funnier...thiz post bee hill larry uz..... ☺☺☺☺☺
ReplyDelete♥♥♥♥♥
That was a cute little intruder Austin. I wonder if she is a new neighbour. By the way, that was quite the impressive bottle brush.
ReplyDeleteMOL! Uh, doods, ya don't wanna scrap with a Meezer. She probably just wanted to tell you about Meezer Colors Day an' stuff!
ReplyDeleteI adore Siamese...what a beauty!
ReplyDeleteDat meezer are pretty cute.
ReplyDeleteYou crack me up regularly - hope you know that!
ReplyDeletePoor kitty, she is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteMOL! Austin, you're such a tough guy. ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat Brian said! Everycat wants to piece of the action.
ReplyDeleteOh, I was on the edge of my seat! (Pretty little thing!) Our neighbor's cat comes in our yard every once in a while, and Rita goes nuts! But once the cat turned and hissed at her and Rita screamed like a little girl, and it echoed up and down the canyon our house sits on!
ReplyDeleteShe looks just like me! (except a little darker, a little bigger and little younger)
ReplyDeleteAustin, would yous scream at mes if mes dropped in for a impromptu visit?
(Mes certainly hopes yous would...)
Kisses
Nellie
That's right Austin!..... you don't need any more chicken-lickers at YOUR house!
ReplyDeleteOh Austin what a pretty siamese lady is looking for you in your garden. We feel she must be smitten with your dark furs and rugged good looks.
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
MR Poo !
ReplyDeleteQuite charming way to get rid of intruder...tee..heh
Kudos to you no blood get involved :)
Have a great weekend
Gosh - she really was a very graceful and petite and BEAUTIFUL introducer Austin. You may have missed your chance to make a new friend of the "girl" persuasion. She appeared to be ready to be a gracious visitor but obviously, as King of the castle you needed to let her know WHO was in residence and WHO wasn't welcome there! Maybe she'll try again.....!!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy
That is a pretty intruder. Austin, maybe next time you should take the time to talk to her. Better luck net time little pretty introooder.
ReplyDeleteShe's cute to human's eyes, but an intruder is an intruder ! Well done, Austin ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteThe petite Siamese looked very sweet... ♥
ReplyDeleteBrilliant report, Austin - I felt like I was there! You really are a Protector Cat!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant report, Austin - I felt like I was there! You really are a Protector Cat!
ReplyDeleteYou really should thank Austin for protecting you, that Siamese probably wasn't nearly as sweet as she looked.. and was there to steal all your gushy foods
ReplyDeleteDo you think she was coming to steal your typist, er human?
ReplyDeleteWow Austin we'd like to have you as our enforcer!
ReplyDeleteShe sure looks pretty, Austin. We loved your bottle brush and manly menace! Our mom is with your mom - she hopes the meezer comes back.
ReplyDeleteOh, and we love the word for the day!
Oh no Austin - she is a beauty! You should be wooing her not shooing her :)
ReplyDeleteDip and Elliot x

That was a captivating story. I'm willing to bet your intruder won't be back anytime soon. I, too, have screamed that scream. It was around 2 a.m. and I made the most wretched wail I imaginable. Mom and Dad jolted awake and bolted from their bed expecting to find one of us gushing blood from a missing limb (Sammi already had a missing limb but they feared one of us had lost another). It was just me, sitting in the front window screaming at an intruder cat.
ReplyDeleteoh dear...I hope she has a home. And Savvy would do same as Austin. We have a black kitty visiting our back garden lately and when Savvy saw her she became another cat. Feral, gutteral yowling and snarling...it was scary. Poor kitty. Thankfully Savvy did not take her angst out on TKS
ReplyDeleteWe've heard of that Siamese gang.
ReplyDeleteI bet there were at least a couple hundred of them.
Thank COD you were on the scene, Austin. ; )
GloGirly is right. That Siamese gang is the toughest one in all of the UK. How did a member ever get into your garden like that? Austin, Tigger..better ramp up sekuritee.
ReplyDeleteOh, what a sweet girl. Too bad she left. We hope you see her again, so you can share her with us. Austin looks like Misty May whenever she gets after Astrid who screams bloody murder when it happens. So we know the sound to which you refer. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteShe did look rather pretty, Austin! She knows how brave and intrepid you are now, so perhaps next time you can make friends.
