| I'm ba-ack! Lilybits, not large, but in charge (as usual). |
Living here with my absent-minded writer mom and engineer
dad has its perks. Like the night before last, Mom was feeding me a snack and
she was distracted. Why? Because she had forgotten to put the sheets in the
dryer earlier in the day, she was just running to get them out of the dryer at
the end of the day, and rushing upstairs to make the bed. In the process she
forgot to put away my wet food and left a can open on the counter in the
kitchen. I discussed the reason for such forgetfulness in my previous post
concerning MFADD.
Come closer and let me tell you a little secret: I’m not
supposed to walk on the counter, but just between you and me, I do when Mom and
Dad aren’t around. You won’t tell, will you?
BEST. NIGHT. EVER. I had the all night kitty buffet going. I
mean I couldn’t believe it. I’d jump up on the kitchen island, look around,
then I’d take a nibble from the can. If I wanted something crunchy, I’d go over
to my dish for a few pieces of kibble and then back to the wet food. Then, when
I’d had my fill for a time, I went upstairs and snuggled down between mom and
dad—hee hee—without their knowing a thing.
Then, yesterday morning, Dad came downstairs first and blew
my cover. Before I knew it, the contents of the can were absconded and the
party was over. I noticed Mom didn’t give me a midnight snack last night. I
need to perfect my whining and distraction techniques, so I can figure out how
to get another all night kitty buffet again, soon!

Then again, when everybody writes me in on their ballot and
I’m elected president, I understand I can have an all night kitty buffet every
night!

Lilybits, you've done it again: made me smile big time! Did I ever share the story of you when our only boy cat, Higgins, was a little tyke. His dad and me heard a distinct plop one evening, and since by that time Mr. H was out 3rd cat, it was safe to assume that H had taken a stroll on the counter. But the poor guy was just a kitten--maybe 2 or 3 months old. The next morning we found him curled up between us in bed with a busted tail that drooped. The vet said to keep an eye on the tail because it may have to… well, as you know, go where broken tails go. But alas, our little guy who must have been playing Super Man and leaping off the counter, climbing back on, and leaping off, had a delightful surprise when his tail became stronger and he regained control of it.
ReplyDeleteI'm so looking forward to seeing you next week Lilybits, tail or no tail, you're precious.
Lilybits says: I'm very happy for Higgins he was able to
Deletekeep his tail. I do miss mine sometimes.
Mom and I are looking forward to seeing you too, Miss Elaine.
She made me promise not to hiss or lightly bite you when
you try to pet me. She reassured me you are very kind and
a big fan of cats. I can be a bit reserved.
Kathy says: I'm not sure how good her promises are. ;) We'll see.
Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving a comment.
See you soon!
