Is That You, Dad?

Today, I just wanted to sit on the Dad's lap all the time. He had to get up to answer the ringing box, but I got right back on his lap and settled in for a long spring's nap. Finally, he said he had to get up and get dressed. I cried, I complained, I followed him upstairs and helped him pick out a shirt. I purred the whole time and my paws got all happy, as they curled and uncurled; (Momma calls them my singing toes) not to be confused with biscuits, where I knead into something, like a blanket or a bare leg. Then, after all that help I gave him dressing, he just went right outside to kill weeds!! I am sulking now, up high in my tree; just see if I pay him any mind at all the rest of the day.

~10 minutes later~ Dad, oh, Dad, is that you?? Excuse me, I think I heard the door........

  2. Momma says that her Iggy cat used to do that all the time--especially when he got to explore something new!

    I'm jealous that you get to be in the tree...
