Stewie Update

The cat is still at our house, and he should be thanking his lucky stars that we haven't deported him back to Mordor. Honestly, he's comparable to Gollum, in that there are times that "we pity him" but deep down he's a raging psychopath with multiple personalities.

For example, there will be times when he has chilled out long enough to cuddle with me on my lap, and just as I start to think that he's the sweetest, cutest cat ever, he looks up at my face, pounces, and bites my nose. This has happened on several occassions.

I can't fix the couch covers without him full on attacking and biting my arms and hands. Same with doing push ups or picking up stuff off the floor. When I walk around the house with capris or shorts, he's bound to sneak attack my ankles and sink his teeth in. For these reasons, I hate the cat.

On the other hand, he makes us laugh really really hard. His mannerisms are hilarious when he's playing with his toys. If he ever tries to scratch his neck or chin with his back leg, he thinks that his back leg is attacking him, so he'll attack his leg back and bite it. It's so comical!

So here we are, 8 months with this little jerk and still trying to deal with his mayhem. And we are going to continue to keep him around I guess. The only way we'd get rid of him is when we have kids and he hasn't stopped biting us. Still not sure how to make the biting stop though.
