Cat\’s Eye View

One of the joys of ruling the house is when you can convince your people to modify things to suit you. Recently Ma began working in her office again. I tried at first to convince her this was a bad idea as it meant she was moving further away from me when I needed my morning rest.

However, since she seemed dead set and determined to use the office, I decided to go along with her plan. However, there were absolutely no good key seats in the office. This needed to be remedied.

I first showed my disdain by playing in the blinds. This got me scolded.

Then I tried walking across my desk back and forth stepping on keys in making sure to interrupt what she was doing. This got me scolded.

Finally, I laid in the floor in a bit of sunshine, rolled on my back, and squeaked incessantly to let Ma know that I needed her attention. It’s funny how easy they are to manipulate when you’d simply act cute.

Shelves were rearranged and blinds pulled up so that now I can sit in the window and watch the birds in the bush outside while Ma taps away at the computer. Once again, I understand how easily the cat rules the house.
