So if you’re a reader of The Wife’s blog then you probably know we have an issue with cat puke in our house.

So picture if you will our living room. Two super comfy recliners which the wife and I were doing our best to be absorbed in. At the other end of the room, our 7 foot tall, multi-level cat tree on which our youngest cat is lounging at the top most level, and our middle cat the next level down. Keep in mind these are two cats who tolerate each other at best.

Youngest cat all of a sudden sits up and makes that wonderful kitty retching sound – and leans over the side of where he is to aim his open gagging mouth right at middle cat below him…

Now our normal reaction when a cat starts yakking in this house is to curse a lot – but this time just the very thought that one cat might puke ON the other already had us giggling.

After a second or two of gagging, middle cat looks up at youngest cat and then after another second or two decides that maybe being in the target area for youngest cat’s hairball isn’t a good idea and slowly gets up and leaves.

Middle cat then hacks up the cause of his problem, launching it a good six inches and causing it to land on the arm of the sofa below with a distinct and resounding PLOP!

Is it wrong that we were laughing so hard at the flying cat puke that it hurt? Or that I looked at the wife , tears streaming down my eyes, and said “we should blog about that!”
