I was sitting on mum's new demi-lune table, you can see it a little in the background just over my shoulder, and suddenly I was overcome with a nasty furball. Well I didn't have time to jump down I just vomited where I was. Half of it landed on the table and if that wasn't bad enough, the other half landed on Kip who had walked over to see what all the noise was about and was standing on the floor underneath me.
Believe me when I tell you guys it was completely accidental like. When one is in the throes of a devil furball there is no time to yell at your younger brother to get out of the way. Mum was walking into the bedroom when all this happened and was just in time to see Kip get splatted on the top of his head and back of the ear. He didn't even flinch or run off, he just stood there, mum thinks maybe he didn't realize what happened.
She picked Kipper up and rushed down the hall to the bathroom, grabbed some toilet paper to wipe off the vomit then washed his head with warm water. He is such an easygoing fellow he just sat on the bathroom counter while mum fixed him up, then he gave his head a shake and followed mum back into the bedroom. Mum had paper towels to clean up the little mess and they both wanted to check and see if I was okay.
I was totally fine, it always feels good to get rid of one of those things. The best part though was that Kip wasn't mad or anything. Frankly, I don't know if I would have been so relaxed if someone barfed on ME!!! I'm glad I have such a great brother :-)
Wow, that hairball went a long way, didn't it, Ben? Someday I'd like to hack up a hairball on Binga... except I guess it would not be an accident!
ReplyDeletePoor Kip but he is the best bro !!!
ReplyDeleteAnd Ben , whatever you said...I think you got the best shot..tee..heh..heh
I hope you are o.k. And nothing serious
purrs for you, just in case
xoxo
Oh my gosh! oh my gosh!! I'm sorry, I cannot help laughing! Poor Kip! and poor you with the nasty hairball! But wow, what a thing to happen! MOL
ReplyDeleteKip, you sure are a good brofur. But Ben really couldn't help it. He didn't mean to do that. You two sure do get along so well.Those black cats are just the best.Take care.
ReplyDeleteY'know, that really made us laugh!! We can just picture poor Kip getting yakked on!! We've never done that to each other...yet!
ReplyDeleteBen...bless your sweet little heart!!
ReplyDeleteHairballs (which by the way are rarely ball shaped MOL)just happen and there is no what to tell when they will roll up!! I'm sure Kip was startled but thank goodness Mom was near by to assist your both and all is well that ends well.
Big hugs,
Madi
Oh dear Ben - it's lucky your brofur is so laid back - we hope he doesn't return the compliment!
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

ReplyDeleteOur mom doesn't know whether to laugh or gag. LOL.
Can't say that's ever happened in our house and we all certainly hope it never does! :-D
Poor kitty! I had to laugh though...Well written....How we love our cats....
ReplyDeleteOh poor Kip! What a good brother that he didn't get upset! I'd be running all around the house at lightning speed if that happened to me...then I'd pout. Kip, you get the pawsome brother award today!
ReplyDeleteOk, we admit we had a giggle while reading your story. Kip, you are a good sport!
ReplyDeleteewwwwww......glad Kip is such a good guy and we hope you are feeling better now!!
ReplyDeleteOh my, it could have been worse...but not if it happened to you!

Kip is very good natured. I have never had a hairball yakked on me, but if I did, I would be hissing and swearing.
ReplyDeleteFlynn
What a good guy Kip is, I don;t think any of us would have been so good or understanding. Our mom got a big laugh out of our sign. We need a few of those around here she says!
ReplyDeleteGross... poor Kip! But thank goodness you got that hairball out. Also, your paws in that first photo are incredibly adorable.

ReplyDeletePoor Kip, you haz a really good brofur Ben.

Headbonkz to All ~ ^..^
Very interesting story... though we know we wouldn't want to be puked on!
ReplyDeleteOh those furballs! Hey that Kip IS very easy-going isn't he!
ReplyDeleteNo one can blame you, Ben! How can you warn someone when you're gagging? Not possible.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful how easygoing Kip is! I'm sure his previous life was no picnic, so anything that happens now is just gravy -- even furball gravy!!!
MOL, poor Kip. Ben you are lucky to have such a laid back brofur. We are glad you are OK.
