Dear Paris, Guess Who? (Hint: It's ME AGAIN) The Tempest Papers: Letters from a Boat Cat
Sunday Funday... a little late because I am feeling GROSS again and dealing with more ick. It's driving me crazy to not be able to do much of anything. I slept for 18 freaking hours last night/today. I guess my body needed to catch up after not sleeping well all week?
Anyway, it's time for Tempest to make a post instead of me, so here you go!
Dear Paris,
Well I have to say it. I think I might miss you. I've been making my displeasure clear to the humans on board by pacing back and forth across the pilot house all afternoon whilst yeowling as loud as I can. I don't think I could possibly be more clear, but still they ignore me. I do realize that I haven't used my voice much over the last year, but damn, it sounds pretty clear to ME that I'm obviously upset. Still, the humans just carry on with their day like nothing is wrong.
I'm open to suggestions for getting my point across more clearly. I was thinking vomit on the pillow, but I'm hoping to keep that one for more extreme situations. It wouldn't do much good to have them get used to that trick quite so early in our relationship.
That being said, can you at least send some better food or snacks? I'm getting desperate. The plain dry catfood is an insult to my incredibly refined palate. I think some live mice would be good for both my diet and my cardiovascular health. Try to package it in a box that looks like chocolate, though, I would love to see the look on Abyni's face when she opens a box thinking its sweets for her and instead a herd of mice jump out. That would make my day.
Let me know when you've acquired the mice and I will try to find our shipping address.
Love,
Tempest
Queen of the boat pets, Overlord of the floating Castle of 11 Purple Monkeys.
P.S. Look at this pathetic face. Don't you want to send me some food? I bet you do.

Love these :D
The leopard is the most widespread of all big cats.
wowo haha that cat is a little demanding!
Oh yeah, she thought she was queen of the castle! :)
I have ten of them now. It is wonderful to watch them and simply enjoy the time. Nice!
Ten?? I feel overwhelmed with the three that my daughter has here sometimes! They are amazingly entertaining, though :) Thanks for the comment!
I wonder how it feels to be a kitten celebrity. :D
:) I'll have to ask her! :) Thanks for the comment!
I'm surprised Tempest couldn't sniff out any of the stow away mice on board! Great post!
Oh man, I am SO glad we didn't have mice on board! Who knows what they would have chewed up! :)
Thanks for reading!
Oh you know I'm checking in, whenever Tempest is up! Lol glad @jaynie shared it, else I would have missed it and that's sad for a new Tempest's fan.
She was trying to get some attention, yeah? Haha I laughed when she said she is reserving the vomiting on the pillow for more extreme situations. Sounds like a serious plan!!!
Thanks @byn! :D
I LOVE all that @jaynie does! I wish that there was an easier way to follow posts/tags/people that didn't get lost in the shuffle of everything. I keep missing things! Of course I've been barely functioning for most of the last week anyway, but still!
Thank you so much for always being so supportive! I'm trying to keep up with tempest posts at least once every weekend. I need to figure out a schedule of some sort.
