The rules of the game get posted at the beginning. Each player answers the questions about themselves. At the end of the post, the player then tags 4 or 5 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog. Let the person who tagged you know when you have posted your answer.

Bad Bad Leroy Brown is thrilled to have been tagged by the glorious Pearl, Queen of Nom, over at Shu’s Small World. He has taken some time out of his sitting-around schedule to consider the questions, and has asked me to relate the following:

What I was doing ten years ago

I was waiting for the right sucker to come along. When the time was right, I plonked myself at the front of the litter and, in the first and only display of energy I would ever make, howled ‘pick me! pick me! Oh please, pick me!’

Five things on my to-do l list for today

• Hang around on top of the fridge hooking unwary passersby with the only claw no-one has been able to cut
• Fight to the end for the best spot in the sunshine, then give it up at the first whiff of a superior position up someone’s shirt
• Leap from the kitchen cupboards onto anyone doing that lovely ziggy-zaggy thing on the counter with a knife – just wish it didn’t make folk scream….
• Hang from the doorknob – curse those round handles I can’t turn!
• Stick my paw into the Red-Head’s collection of crystal ‘pussy cats’ and stir ‘em up good! Phonies…

Snacks I enjoy

A really good carrier bag, cat crunchies (preferably other cats’), string, biros, nail files, book corners, important cables — oooh, the list is endless!

Things I would do if I were a billionaire

I AM a billionaire! I am rich in the coin of the spirit.

Three of my bad habits

I have NO bad habits. I leave that to the Bearded One and the Red Head.

Five places I’ve lived

I’ve only lived in the one home, but let me tell you now I ain’t never going outside. My pads are pink and mister they are staying that way. I do have favourite spots to hang though – on top of the (flat screen) tv, up the Red Head’s shirt, on the warm bit of the sofa every single time the Bearded One gets up for something, underneath a newspaper from where I can leap out and create cardiac irregularities.

Five jobs I’ve had

Work? I’m a Burmese. Are you mad?

This has been such fun, it seems only fair to give other cats a chance to speak out. I tag Topsyturvydom, who I know is a cat person and can relate. I also tag Hesitant Scribe, because cat talk can only be therapeutic!
