I am Professor Chadwick, the fluffy Maine Coon and I'm a neurotic mess. I'll do ANYTHING for attention. I live in order to get constant attention and oodles and oodles of love (I'm usually very successful). I live with my cute little sister, Myrtle. YOU CAN FIND HER ON MYSPACE. She's really cool cos she's always thundering around the house like a loon. We do a great 'cat train' thing where we both thunder about so fast you can't tell where one cat starts and the other one ends. My nicknames include Agent Orange, Mr Loon Pants, Chad, Chadster, My Needy and The Nutter. I'm really clever and love playing fetch with my parents, especially my Dad. He's the best... I have lots of strange habits. I like to make sure my parents are neat and tidy and if my parent's are lazy enough to leave anything on a table, I always knock it to the floor. Sometimes I get really wound up - I'm usually REALLY laid back and gentle, but when I can tell something's going on, I get really irritable and run around the house like a maniac screaming at the top of my voice. My Mum and Dad reckon I'm confused and don't know how a cat is supposed to behave. I'm REALLY, REALLY needy and love nothing more than being in the same room as my Mum and Dad. I hate it when my Dad goes upstairs to do stuff and shuts the door on me - I cry and cry and scratch the wall and headbutt the door. If that doesn't work, I just sit outside the door waiting for him, looking utterly pathetic. My Mum and Dad say I'm the best cat in the world, although they do complain sometimes that I'm a neurotic mess. Fortunately, my Mum usually knows what I want. Like, when I'm misbehaving, running up and down the stairs like a maniac or being really anti-social, it's usually because I want the litter tray cleaned. Makes sense, eh? Oh, and I hate the Vet and nearly ALWAYS poo myself on the way there. I'm also REALLY handsome!
Ok cat friends - here are CHADWICK'S TOP TIPS:
1) When your parents want to go out - pretend to be asleep in front of the front door.
2) When you want attention scratch like hell on the sofa or wallpaper or bring them a toy to play with (they think it's dead cute when I do that).
3) When something is going on that you don't like, run around like a maniac screaming at the top of your voice.
4) When your parents leave their stuff on surfaces that you want to sleep on, just knock it to the floor. They won't do it again.
5) When they are trying to go out - stick your paw between the door and door frame so they can't shut the door - they feel terrible for leaving you alone and buy you stuff when they get back.
6) If you don't like the dried food they've given you, just tip the bowl upside down and spread the food all over the floor.
