I think he is I suppose, as he is back to trouble (which I have to say I have missed so much)
Why is he into trouble again, well A Friend bought me some Big Cushions and Covers for my new Home, the Covers are Fur and lovely, I have given the old Cushions to Gissi as he always took them anyway, well he got all excited when I unwrapped the Covers as soon as I had unwrapped them and put them on the Floor he was on them 
, ok I waited till he got them of them, as I was really not in the mood for arguing, and yes Gissi argues back
So when he got of them I put the Covers on the Cushions, they look great, wow and behold, Gissi shot on the Settee squashed the Cushions and I mean both, down and laid on them, now selfish or what, I mean he could have left me one
So I am standing above him, asking him to move and to lie on his new Cushions, nope, he just sat and looked at me, (to be honest I am sure he was grinning), I tried to move him over, which I partly succeeded, as he ran back on the Cushions, now Gissi has 6 Cushions and 2 in his Bed, one of the Cushions is a nice soft one, but does he want them? No of course not, he wants mine
This might sound silly now, but when he did get of them I grabbed both the Cushions and held them to me, I then sat down and I put the Cushions behind (I even stuck my Tongue out at Gissi, I know childish but well I felt like doing it) well he shot back on the Settee, got behind me on top of the Cushions and laid down, I think if he could have stuck his Tongue out he would have to, so I am sitting on the edge of the Settee with a little of my cushions, while HE is comfortable behind me
Do you have a Pet that takes everything that is yours because they THINK it is theirs???? I know I do

My Pepi is so sneaky how he takes over my couch space or cushions. He snuggles up to me all loving and innocent looking then very slowly and inch by inch he squeezes behind me Finally I am almost completed pushed off and he is spread out pretending to be asleep. When I move him to the side he is immediately awake (he has been waiting for my reaction)and the whole ritual starts over again! My other two are quite happy in their own space and just like to cuddled next to me.

Gaby, you and I both know - and we know Gissi knows it - that HE is the centre of the universe! Of course the cushions are HIS! How could you think otherwise?
PS If you really want to keep him off them, just dab a little Citronella oil on each cushion. It won't do him any harm, but he won't go near them. As a bonus, you won't have any mosquitoes either - but you probably don't get mossies in England.

Yeah I do........his name is Bob and even though he's been my ex for nearly 20 years he STILL thinks he can take what is mine. I should introduce him to Gissi.
Gissi would teach him a real lesson in who gets what! ROFL

I had a Lab before Gissi, they are such beautiful Dogs, he was more my Sons Dog then anyone elses, as he adored Mike from the Day I brought him, Mike was devastated when Max had to be put to sleep because he had Cancer and was to old to be operated on to this Day Mike misses him and Max has been gone 5 years next Month
I still miss him to, he went to sleep forever in my Arms as I would not let him go alone
It was 4 months later I came across Gissi in the Kennels

I am truly sorry bout Max but animals live longer than people cuz they know how to love and their times is up before ours is. I read that somewhere and it is so true.
I hate it when they suffer and I have to watch. I had a cat die not too long ago and tho she was 20 yrs.old she was a sweetie.
I have a son named Mike too.
My dog Galeena is MY dog, no question about it. anybody will tell you that.
I've loved a lot of animals in mylife but this one seems to be the one I've come the closest to.
I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that she and I and my cats lived alone in the mountains of MT and we all became so close it was a real family and we all needed each other.
My husband and I had been separatd for seven years and he got sick and came to live with me.
But my Galeena is still the love of my life.
I watched her and my cat Hussie a while ago looking at me thru this window by my puter and they each had that look on thier faces of "my turn silly" LOL
But, you take care of Gissi and Mike will find another dog , maybe not the same as MAX but that one too will steal his heart.
Take care,

Great to see Gissi back to his normal self, you can't be mad with him long, especially after what the little lad has been through of late! So give him a big hug from me and tell him I want to go out and play and now I've got my yellow belt I can show off with it and I know he is dying to see me in yellow! Gawd I love that colour makes me feel happy. Anyhow our cat Meg she does that with food you give her food on her plate and she won't touch it she is much eager to take what you are eating because the food in her bowl she knows is HERS however the food us mere humans eat is a different kettle of fish and she wants what we have LOL. Hugs to you both xxxx

Hi Sweetie, it is great to have the little Fellow back lol even though it means mischief in between packing up lol
Gissi said he wants to come and play but it is so wet and cold out there, so when he comes you will have to tell your Mum that she will have to put up with you both playing in the House also Gissi said he is happy you got the Yellow belt but please only show him the Belt but not the moves as he has no practise in defence lol
Meg is just Gissi's type of Cat lol
Big Hugs back to you xxx

OMG gabs what a laugh I had…really Gissi is a blessing both to you and to us when we get to hear of his pranks and have some laughter to brighten up our moments. Since I’ve seen you in the pix you posted, I can now imagine you, hugging on protectively to your remaining cushions and can well imagine GIssi’s smirk as he emerges victorious yet again…you both are so lovely and so lively
to both of you

Lol Sud believe me he is full of it again and I have to say I love it even though I really was not in the Mood for his Pranks I just ended up laughing I can't help it
I mean I have just been to the Shops without the little Fellow and everyone I bumped into said "Where is Gissi? We normally know you are in here because he lets us know"
well that is why I left him at home so he does not entertain the whole Village while I am in the Shop and they all went "Awwwwwwwwwww Gabs we enjoy his entertainment
lol
to you back from both of us

Hi gabs, It's great to know that Gissi is back to his old self. I loved reading your post, and I felt that I could see what was happening between you,him and the cushions. To answer your question, I'm having one heck of a time writing this at the moment because my cat,Cuddles, has decided to get comfortable in front of my monitor. A few minutes ago she wanted to see how the printer worked, and jumped on it, pushing the print button. Blessings to both of you.

Hahahahaha Pose I love it
I know when I had my Cats as well as Gissi they used to be right little Beggars because they can get everywhere which used to confuse Gissi as he could not understand how they got on top of everything but you wait for his latest attempts lol he just makes me laugh as he seems to try everything that the Cat Daisy next door does lol

Hi gabs..First of all, Gissi is absolutely adorable..It makes your story even cuter cause I can just picture him there defying you!! I too have not one but two spoiled dogs that are very selfish..My Bijon thinks evrything brought into the home is his wheather its food, bedding, pillows, etc. My bed is where I suffer the most..He puts all MY stuffed animals in the bed (some of them I have had for years and are all special to me in one way or another) and by way, they are all either missing an ear, none have a nose, bows if they had one and all have stuffing hanging out. Still he loves them and thinks they are his babies. So I go to get in bed and my Irish setter takes up one whole side and growls at me if I try to move her, and Lambchop (bijon) is usually on my pillow with all the animals strewn about and also will not move over for me..Sometimes I literally have one leg hanging out of the bed beause there is no room for it. Lambchop also rearranges my things. Sunday he took the trash can out of the bathroom and moved it into one of the bedrooms. Why? I dont know..I moved it back and he moved it back again. They both hide my shoes and I think the reason for that is that if I have no shoes, I can't leave! They take the remote control for the tv and sometimes it takes me 30 minutes to find it..today it was in the linen closet where I discovered all my sheets down on the floor and an indentation where they had been laying on them. I could go on and on..Sometimes I wonder just who is in charge..My husband bought me a doormat that says 2 dogs and their staff live here!!..So true..Good luck with your new pillows or should I say, Gissis pillows!!

Harmony loves to trick me out of my computer chair. She pretends she wants out or some food or something, then when I get up to fulfill her wishes, she hops up on my chair! She doesn't care that I'm using the computer, either.

Hey gabs! It is so wonderful to hear that Gissi is back to his
old miserable self!lol He is so bad, but that's what we do so
love about the little rotten man!He definitely
is too smart for his own good! And he is definitely in good
company with his cousins Star and Luna! They think that
everything I bring into the house that is new is theirs too!
I had a new quilt set sent by mail and it was in a box and
of course it became theirs, box and all!lol And everything
and anything that is mine is theirs! I get out of my computer
chair for a second to do something in the kitchen or go to
the restroom and I come back and there is Star sitting in my
chair all comfy like it's his chair! They do the same thing
with the bed! So, you think Gissi is the only bad boy! His
cousins are just like him! If the three of them ever got together
you and I would be in big trouble Gabs! The would probably lock
us out of the house and leave us standing there in the cold!
