Hello world! My name is Gwendolynn Anne Marie Stefani Collins-Silver. You may call me Gwennie. I’m extremely intelligent and exquisitely beautiful. I’m also very modest – as most cats are. I’m the disgruntled owner of two adults, two human kittens and my…ahem…sister, Little Missy. She’s ugly. I’ll show you a picture of her in a bit so you have time to adjust before you’re completely traumatized.
A few years after I adopted Momma, Momma married Boy-Dadda and started having human kittens – a fact that still annoys me to this day. Needless to say, Little Missy and I have adapted to their existence. Well, I’ve adapted, Little Missy still has a few things to figure out – like where to hide when she’s being chased. She seems to think that the best place to hide is on Momma’s lap. Clearly Little Missy hasn’t been paying attention. The Little Thing and his minion are not afraid of Momma. If they want food, they find Momma. If they’re sick, they find Momma. If they want to play, they find Boy-Dadda. Weirdos!
Poor Little Missy. I feel so sorry for her. It must be so awful to be so ugly.
Momma says Little Missy isn’t mean; she’s pretty and looks just like me. Rude! Here’s another picture of me. You be the judge!
The point of all of this was to instruct other cats on where they can hide from human kittens. Little Missy, I hope you’re reading this! I’m fortunate to have three hiding places that haven’t been invaded yet.
- Under Momma’s bed. The human kittens are far too busy knocking things off the nightstand to look under the bed.
- In the basement closet, behind the suitcases. Momma went looking in there for me once, and couldn’t find me. Hee, hee! I was in there!
- Inside Momma’s shower.
Momma usually keeps the shower curtain closed during the day, making it an ideal hiding place. Just make sure if you hear your human coming that you get out of the way! They don’t always check for occupants when turning the water on.
Now it’s my turn to ask you: Where do you go to hide from your human kittens?
My name is Gwendolynn Anne Marie Stefani Collins-Silver. I’m a cat and I don’t care….about anything except for my momma, A. Marie Silver – mother of two human kittens and editor of a literary magazine that no one cares about because it’s not about me!
Hu! Im Sonu Singh…I tried the shower curtain too. It was great until mummy changed it to a see through one so they can see me straight away!
Personally I like the top of the fridge, or I hide on dining table chairs! Its funny listening to them calling .e, and crawling around looking for me, then they remember…!
But right now, my seasonal favourite is the corner behind that lovely sparkly scratching post they have put up for me! It has lights and toys too! So considerate of them all!!!
Excellent choices!

Adorable post. Thanks for sharing it. 🙂

Hahaha!! Sleepyheaded ,Sooo cute XD
Hi, Gwennie, I’m Other Brother Coon Cat. I’d rather have human kittens to run from than 4 dogs. When I purr, they think I’m growling at them. My brother and I have a cushion that takes up 1/2 of mom’s desk so excited dogs don’t trample us on the way out the dog door.
Count your blessings, Gwennie. Be thankful you’ve never curled up next to your mom and had to run like a heck to get away from a 68 pound Fat White Dog who thinks that falling on top of you will rid her of the thing that’s taking up the mom arm.
That’s very true! My house is dog free. BUT! Little Missy and I have both been body-slammed by the two-year-old, while sitting on Momma’s lap. Human kittens are RUDE!!!!
I agree. Both are rude. I’ll curl up on my side of mom’s desk and sleep on the problem.
Many moons ago, when cat Spike was a kitten, a human dropped over with her three young human kittens. One of the human kittens proceeded to chase poor Spike around the apartment until he decided to crawl under the stove (he was THAT small). Human kitten then proceeded to lay on the floor of the kitchen, face to the bottom of the stove, and cried, “Mary, why won’t he come out?” Ummmm…
Oops! Poor Kitty! Grandma had a kitty who found a whole in the back of the cupboard that went behind the dry wall. She got lost in the wall. Grandma was very panicked. She left the cupboard door open and shined a flashlight inside. Eventually the kitty found her way out and naturally acted as though nothing had happened.
LOL! My cat Gibbs found a similar hole, but ended up in the back of the lazy-susan cabinet. Thankfully, he found his way out before I totally panicked. I had the landlord come the next day to patch the hole.
By the way, I am not recommending under the stove as a hiding place. Spike was desperate at the time.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. Sometimes as cat has to do what a cat has to do!
Another excellent hiding place is under the dining room table or on one of the dining room chairs (as long as there’s a tablecloth on).
This was adorably funny! lol
Thank you!
Reblogged this on ravenhawks' magazine and commented:
My cats liked the top shelf in the pantry,top of the fridge, and of course under the bed.
Thank you!
Ha ha ha ha! Your post is just too cute! 😀 I loved it!
Thank you!
Hi Gwennie,
I’m Diavolo and I think you are beautiful!
My favorite place to hide is under my mom’s bed. I’m lucky that there are no human kittens or dogs here but I can hide from things like lawn mowers and leaf blowers and,oh, yeah, the vacuum cleaner!
Hi Diavlo! Thank you! Those are excellent hiding spots too!
