Really, cat?

This cat has been my buddy since he came with the package deal of my wife.

Three dogs came with the deal too, but I don’t care about them.

This guy is my buddy.

This is the first time in six years he’s ever done something like this.

You think he’s trying to tell me something?

I was sitting in a way that didn’t allow him the usual spot in my lap. I wasn’t up for a sweaty crotch or a leg that goes numb from his weight.

I think we were having a battle of wits here.

More a battle of time. He sure as hell didn’t have anything better to do and despite the fact that he was lying directly on top of my reading glasses, looked perfectly content to lay there all day.

He did make a vane attempt in telling me just what it is he wanted, but I was winning.

But, like usual, I had no choice but to give in to his demands. I needed the letters on that half of the keyboard and his weight kept turning on the caps lock key. Plus the occasional misspelled word was starting to get annoying.

Instead, here I sit now with one leg completely numb from the hip down.

  1. hehe….yes, really. 🙂

    This post brightened my day tremendously. Thanks, Ken.

    1. Had to take a break from trying to figure out the writer’s resume.
      Education: None
      Experience: Uhhhh, I have a bunch of stuff spread all over the internet.
      Print Samples: Nobody reads on paper anymore.

      It’s going really well.

  2. Ok, now I’m worried about you.

    If you take up knitting and start complaining about your gout I’m hailing for an intervention.

    1. My feet do hurt a lot lately.

    1. Can’t help myself. You obviously read them.

  3. Remember, one day, and none too far away I maight add, you’re gonna wish there was something warm and alive to lay on your leg….savor it, while you have it.

    1. I’ll miss this guy some day.
      The rest remains to be seen.

  4. Aren’t cats great? I had my last cat, Bubba for 10 years before he died. He was a buddy by the finest definition of the word

  5. I had a cat once that I raised from when it was 3 days old. Left him with an old girlfriend. I hear he lived to be 25. That one was a character.
