Scooter update: While I was stumbling to the kitchen this morning, Scooter was doing his usual "Finally, someone's up - I want breakfast, dammit" darting around. I stepped into the kitchen just at the same moment he dodged right in front me, stepped on my foot and used it as launchpad to a box he likes to sit on, leaving an 1½" long scratch on the inside of one of my toes from his hind claws. While I'm hopping around on one foot and swearing, he's looking at me, blinking with his eyes half closed, all sullen teenage "Whut?"

Damn cats.

Oh I know he didn't mean it, but he is constantly doing this right angle dodge right in front of where you're walking. I've accidentally kicked him on more than one occasion, because he ran right in front of the foot I was stepping forward with. Maybe it's revenge.

Heh - Tyjer does something very similar, except in his case he INSISTS on ambling along right in front of my feet, coming perilously close to tripping me up. I've accidentally trodden on him and kicked him more than once, but it makes no difference: if mum is walking anywhere, he's going to walk with her dammit!

Even worse when he sits in the way and WILL NOT move. Worst of all is when he lies in the way and grabs your ankle as you try to step over him...
