And, so... the pussycat controls !
The pussycat is acting a bit more than just strange.
The pussycat is going on 17 years ( sortta kindda about 90 ! )
The pussycat can be found mostly in the bath tub about two feet away from the faucet.
The pussycat just stands there, in the same exact position, a complete, perfect pussycat stand....
I can't say for how long he does this, however, to me, it seems like hours at a time, until he is located there, standing in full attention stance! It's baffling and quite unsettling to wake up in the early hours of the night (like, for instance, now....... just needing to pee and well, you know) and find Elliot just standing at the lower end of the big old bath tub, not knowing how long he's been there.
And, so, I'm up and about and writing about this.
He desires water only that comes from the faucet now...
I can't tear my hair out...it's been cut way too short!
However, I am very uncomfortable with Elliot being in the bath tub all the time.
Many years ago I was given two precious kittens, Lauren and Bogey. Bogey died from distemper at maybe 7 months old. Bogey could always be found in the bathtub. I think it is probably because he liked the cool temperature and it soothed his fever. It was a very, very sad time to say goodbye to a baby pussycat.
So... one could only imagine why I am disturbed when I see Elliot lingering in the bathtub for what seems like hours at a time.
I hold my breath.
