Minty Fresh

Dammit Cat,

I was saving that peppermint. I did not need to hear a rattling of a wrapper and then you crunching away.

Your breath is awesome now though.

That's Just Mean

Dammit Cat,

Please don't hide under the piece of furniture that's placed right by the entrance to the living room. Please do not wait there silently, waiting for a dog or human to walk by so that you can snag them. You know that they have no way of getting you back, so it's really quite unfair. Please also do not be surprised when the dogs all rush you as soon as you get out from under the safety of it.

Eeew

Dammit Cat,

Please do not try to climb into the toilet bowl to splash around.

Especially just before I flush it.



(I did keep her away from it, but she was determined. The flush noise scared her away from the clean water.)

For Your Own Good

Dammit Cat,

When you are trying to pull down an expensive and heavy thing onto your head, do not be surprised when I put it where you can't (easily) get it. No, I am not doing that just to be mean. Also, when you go back over, feel for it and realize it isn't there, turning and screaming at me is not the way to get it back. Especially not if it is nearly midnight and I am the only person in the house still awake.

God's Eye

Dammit Cat,

that spool of thread was not for you. In fact, that was for a project. It IS impressive how you managed to bat it around the table and chair legs to form something that looked like a single colored God's Eye craft project.

It is especially impressive that you managed to wind the thread so tightly around the table that when I tugged on the thread it snapped, making me unable to roll the thread back on the spool and actually use it. I don't know how you did it, but bravo. Now please excuse me while I go buy more of that color, since there is almost none left.

No! Don't eat that!

Dammit Cat,

Do not chew on plants for attention. Do not meow so that we are looking at you and then lean forward to chew the flowers.

ESPECIALLY do not do this when it is Valentines and there is a potted tulip sitting on the table that was a gift.

When we do a quick Google search and find out that tulips are toxic to cats and then take the tulip outside after making sure that you just put some bite marks in it, do not make sad noises. Do not stare out the window at the tulip like it was the best toy ever. Also, please do not spend the rest of the day being annoyed at the fact that I am constantly checking on you to make sure that you are not drooling or otherwise acting stranger than normal.

Some Thanks

Dammit Cat,

When I'm trying to fix or improve upon your toys, please do not lunge at them, claws out. I am trying to enrich your playing experience. I don't think that my blood and screams will do that as effectively as you think, though I may be wrong.

Waterworks

Dammit Cat,

The kitchen does not need an indoor pool. Please stop flipping the dog's water bowls upside down, or putting your front feet in them and digging until they're half empty. We do not want a slip and slide on the tile, no matter how much you think we do.

Hello and Welcome

So, at the suggestion of some of my friends, I'm going to start a blog about my cat. Yes, I'm a little young to be a crazy cat lady, but I figure I should start early.

I intend for this to be a blog purely about crazy cat stories-mine and other people's. Maybe one day a week I'll post other people's stories that they've sent to me. I'll try to post at least a few times a week, though it's mostly going to be affected by how my cat Zuzana behaves.

And now to begin things, the dignified gooshing of my cat.
