Have you ever had a cat licking behind your ear? It's a most disconcerting sensation. That's Pumpkin's new favorite thing to do. She'll jump onto my shoulders and go after my ear like it was a chicken flavored Pounce® treat. I'm just glad she doesn't do that when I'm trying to sleep. Pumpkin's also discovered that if she takes a swing at Dizzy she can make him fall down.
Dizzy has Cerebella Ataxia, which means the signals from his brain don't always get to his muscles like they should. This means he wobbles when he walks and often falls down if he turns around too fast or tries to scratch behind his ear. Now I didn't see this discovery of Pumpkin's first-hand, if I had she would have gotten a thorough soaking. My dad said he saw Pumpkin swing at Dizzy, probably because he got too close for comfort, and Dizzy fell down. When he got back up Pumpkin swung at him again as if to say, "Hey, this is fun." The little brat. Dad says he reprimanded her which may explain why I haven't seen her do that again, but she's swung at dizzy since then for no good reason and I swatted her on the butt. She wasn't expecting it and whipped around with a look that said, "What was that for?"
Like she didn't know.
