Aye Carumba!

I can’t begin to explain the relationship between my cat and I. Well, I couldn’t before, but I can now! I used to be so smug that my cat slept on the back of my chair all day long as I toiled away at the computer. Really, I was so snooty about it. Can you blame me? Look for yourself:
Shhh! Cat nap!
She’s so clever at looking adoring!

But something changed this weekend. I’m more than a little embarrassed to tell of my experience, but I think that it’s about time someone shed some light on this before another clueless cat owner gets hurt.

I had gone outside to do some gardening. The sun was shining and there was a nice breeze. The weeds were coming up easily, it was just a good afternoon. I decided to go inside to get something to drink and that was when I noticed that poor Liza’s water bowl was empty!

*gasp*

I felt HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE, I tell you!!!

I quickly filled the bowl and even added a couple of ice cubes (she likes to play with them). That was when I realized… no Liza. Usually she can hear someone walking within 12 inches of her food dishes no matter where she is in the house. I began to look around for her, worried that something terrible might have happened!

That’s when I walked in on… on… just look for yourself!!!

Liza Jane, a little too comfortable.

That’s right. Liza and MY chair!!!

She actually had the nerve to look miffed when I caught her!!!

It’s funny how pets rule the household. my dog Ollie does the same. He’s so spoilt he has two beds. Gets up in the morning, does his business outside and then goes to his ‘day bed’, which is in view of the front door, to lay in wait for the postman.

Miss Britt says:

Has anyone made the “dirty kitty” comment yet?

Marissa says:

I’m so glad I’m not alone! :yep: I thought my dog loved me like Liza loved you, until I saw her on the dog bed by my desk, snoozing away while the cable repair man was fixing my outlets.

They just don’t understand. :violin:

I think you should shave your pussy.

You guys and your cats. ;-)

My Lhasas think they are cats. They are stubborn, and if they don’t get their way, there is retribution, usually in the form of poopy and pee on the floor. And there is no sleeping when they want up. Nicky will pounce on top of me. 18 pounds on four tiny paws; NOT a good thing.

Crys says:

apparently she knows who’s boss

Crazy Lady says:

you poor chair has been violated!

That’s not a “miffed” look; that’s a “WTF are you bothering me for?!” look! :wtf:

Go ahead, I can take it.
