We Love Our Lazy Cat - Fat Bob.

Our cat Bob is one of the laziest cats that I have ever known. He is a great cat and does not cause any trouble. He is just Bob! Bob the laziest cat in the world. All he does is sit about on the roof of our bungalow or the next door neighbour's roof. He looks out across the fields to the front but never crosses the road. His domain is our back garden and the next door neighbour's garden too. He will challenge any moogy that ventures upon his patch. 

In the photo, he is looking directly at me. He has a hopeful glint in his eye because he knows I often give him a slice of ham. He sits by the fridge, looking at me when indoors. If I go to get the milk for my tea, he is there meowing and trying to scrounge a quick slice.

My wife, Carole, and I were going out when I see Bob on the neighbour's fence. He must have known we were doing the shopping as he made no attempt to move. He is a great lump and when he jumps down from the high fence, there is a distinct lack of finesse or any type of feline grass. We just hear a splat! Bob seems to belly flop upon the ground. Yet he never seems to be injured. He stands up and waddles off. A big fat hairy lump of fur.

Despite his un-cat like ways, we love him dearly. He is twelve years old now. As a little kitten, he was snow white. Then he went a sort of sandy blond colour as he grew.

Why Eunuch Bob Loves Hareem Lilly



Lilly and her Bodyguard
Eunuch Bob

Hareem Lilly always wants to respond to the big Tabby Tom’s Meowing now that she is a big girl, but her bodyguard, Eunuch Bob, stands sentinel over the Kingdom of our Garden, ferociously driving off poor Tom, who is dying to get better acquainted with Hareem Lilly - the forbidden fruit.

Lilly Loves and plays with Eunuch Bob, but he can’t quite do the things that she might want Tom to do with her, because poor old Eunuch Bob was doctored before we got him.  We would love Hareem Lilly to get out a bit, but Bob follows her and herds her back to the Kingdom of our Garden every time she tries to get next door.

Tabby Tom might have the things necessary for Hareem Lilly to one day hear the patter of tiny paws.  Sadly, when it comes to displaying them before confronting Eunuch Bob; he is extremely lacking on this front. In fact, he has no front at all. I sometimes think that Tabby Tom lends them to Eunuch Bob, because he sounds off like he has a pair whenever any Tom gets anywhere near the Kingdom of our Garden.

Eunuch Bob must let Lilly go out and let her hair down a bit. She needs to kick up her paws and live a little so that we can all rejoice over the patter of tiny paws. Eunuch Bobs takes things very seriously, but he is a very big fat lovely cat with Hareem Liliy’s interests at heart.
