Happy Middle Child Day Twee!


Tweedle

Since we have seven cats, Twee is officially our "Middle Child" now, although I am sure if you ask her, she is still the baby.


Twee is, and always has been, rather slow in the mental department.  Before she was named we often said she was a few kibble shy of a bowl.  Lots of names were thrown around, and many of them weren't so nice. We ended up settling on Tweedle of the Alice in Wonderland twins. I have had a couple of animal communicators 'talk' to Twee, and each one says she talks like a kitten despite the fact at the time of the session she was well past kittenhood.

She is as sweet as honey, and sometimes can be as annoying as honey too. She has no concept of personal space. She doesn't understand why the other cats don't really want to hang out with her, so when they get up and leave she follows them thinking maybe they know a better spot to snuggle. When Em was still with us, she would always snuggle up with Twee but in the years since Em's passing, poor Twee still hasn't caught on that not everyone loves her. Sometimes she makes such a pest of herself I have to put a stop to it, which bothers me a bit because I know she has no idea why I am doing it.


Funny thing about Twee, is she turns into a terror at the vet. She used to be just fine and almost seem to enjoy the adventure of it all, but when she was three or four she started hissing and spitting (or  as I like to call it, swearing like a sailor) I can't help but wonder if something happened to her to cause the shift, and that thought saddens me to no end.

She also hates to have her photo taken. I have to basically trick her into it. How she sat still for these, I have no idea.

  3. Twee is beautiful ! Angel Mephisto (Claire's cat when she was a child) was not a genius either, but he was the sweetest cat ever. Purrs

  4. Twee is beautiful! Newton is our middle cat, and like Twee, he really wants everyone to be his friend (and to groom him), but both Pierre and Ashton aren't into that kind of closeness with him.

  11. We think it's kind of pawsome that Twee does her own thing. Like humans, we're all different. We do hope she finds another special furriend though.

  12. Twee is such a cutie pie. Middle child with kitten heart :-) Goro used to be just fine at the vet, but he grew really unhappy, too.
    Have a happy weekend!

  13. Twee is a cutie. Y'know...Zoey is the same way at the vet, like a wildcat. But when she was younger, she didn't act like a wildcat at all...just scared. Same thing...started when she was around 3 years old or so. Interesting....

  15. My goodness she was wee. I love that she is still a kitten at heart, apparently some cats like some people, never grow up.

  16. It is funny how cats are like people in the brains department. I have one brilliant cat Opie, and Scooby is so slow I can see the thoughts forming in his head.

  18. She's so cute in that bowl! I think our Sophie sounds a bit like your Twee, although Sophie is our youngest, not the middle child.
