Dialogues with my kitty

[pjthompson]

Me: Min, we have to sleep with the curtains closed.
Min: But I like the curtains open so I can look out.
Me: (closing curtains) No, we have to close them.
Min: (sticking head through curtains to open them) But why? I like to look out.
Me: (firmly reclosing curtains) If someone walks by outside they can look in on us.
Min: So?
Me: Well, they might be blinded by our goddess-like beauty.
Min: That's true. But that's their problem, not ours.
Me: Have pity on your fellow man, sweetheart.
Min: I'm a cat.

I'm happy to report Min didn't win this argument. Score one for the human!

Foolish mortal...you NEVER win against the cat. Sometimes they just let you think that you have so you'll keep playing, and they count up your supposed "wins" and take them out on you later.

You speak great wisdom, o fellow mortal. Maybe that's why she decided to have a loud game of "roll the ball across the tile" in the wee hours. :-)

"But I might MISS something!"

[pjthompson]

Right, like the opportunity to growl at those nasty boy cats outside now that she's safe from being jumped on. That's a favorite game.

Aww, pretty kitty! *stealses*

[pjthompson]

Pretty kitty thinks you have good taste. :-)

[safewrite.livejournal.com]

Agreed. Cats just let you think you've won.

Watch your back.

I'm living in fear every moment...

Junk in kitty's trunk?

Pam,

What are you feeding that cat?

Attitude Crunchies. Oh, you mean that giant posterior...

I guess it was only a matter of time before she let you win one.

[pjthompson]

Yeah, she was humoring me. And I'm not so sure she isn't going to find some way to retaliate.

You may think you've won, dear girl. But does one ever truly win against a feline? They may not get you today and it may not be tomorrow, but they will eventually get you.

[pjthompson]

Yep.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Do you ever wonder sometimes why we love these creatures? LOL....

Savour the moment, it'll probably be a while before the next victory. *grin*

[pjthompson]

It was fleeting...
