Open Log

Who: Open to all
Broadcast: N/A
Action: On board the S.S.Bishop
When: Shortly after this post

[Hux can be found at his work station, working on sorting out his tools and supplies and trying to make things cat proofed (if there was such a thing). Usually he was more organized, but he was still trying to get a system he was happy with and these were tools and materials he normally didn't work with.

Now with the cat around, he had to rearrange things. He had tried to keep her out of the work station, but she had become very upset or was vocal about being left alone. Nor did he need to hear complaints about her cries, so he eventually gave in to her demands. So the cat was permitted in to the work station.

Millicent can be seen on the desk batting away at a paper ball momentarily entertained. He did prepare some hot tea, not the bitter tea he's known to drink, but something that others tend to favor. There were some sandwiches and cakes made for any possible guests. He recalled a few people were fascinated by Millicent and wanted to see her.]

Distraction work very well for young cats. Perhaps finding a toy that she likes. An option could be that she only receives this certain toy when there are guests. The hope would be she would be more interested in the toy than the beverage.

[Lord Akeldama watched as he went to retrieve something, still holding his tea out of reach of the cat until Hux resurfaced with jingling ball. It was a good sign, the cat getting excited and going after the ball when he tossed it, letting her go after it, and the vampire smiled]

It just takes something to make them focus on a better activity. She may eventually get used to that and ignore it, but it is working now and hopefully by that point, she'll no longer be interested in beverages.
