A Day In The Life Of A Cat

 And now it is time for the perspective of the cat, who must always get the last word in.


7:04 AM. Waking up at home. Slept well. Dreamed of revenge against my enemies.


7:06 AM. Inspecting the exterior from the back of the couch. Flying lunches pecking about in the grass. 



7:10 AM. Waiting on the staff to get downstairs and see to my breakfast. How long will she take today?


7:15 AM. Come on, staff, get down here. I can't be waiting all day. I've been up eleven minutes already and I'm starving.


7:21 AM. The staff finally comes downstairs. It's about time, staff, I was about to send a search party after you. Now then, let's see to breakfast, shall we?


7:23 AM. Making my preferences known as the staff works on my breakfast. No field rations, are we clear on that? I don't want to see field rations today.


7:24 AM. The staff puts my breakfast on the floor. The bowl of milk and plate of tuna are welcome. The bowl of field rations is not.


7:26 AM. I have finished breakfast. The milk and tuna have been consumed. The field rations have been ignored.


7:34 AM. Somewhere in the distance that idiot dog from down the road is barking his head off.


7:42 AM. The staff is on her way out the door to go to that work place. Staff? Remember to buy milk on your way home.


7:45 AM. Watching the staff depart the property in the car. Now then, what's on the agenda for today?


8:02 AM. The Weather Channel tells me there's a storm coming tonight. Thunderbolts and lightning, very very frightening, as a wise man once said.


8:36 AM. I think a nap is in order.


11:29 AM. Waking up. Feeling hungry.


11:30 AM. Oh, that's right. There's only field rations left in the open.

Oh well, if I must, I must.


1:30 PM. Somewhere in the distance that dumb hound is barking. The mailman must be stopping by his place.


4:40 PM. The staff returns home. With groceries. Very good, staff.


4:45 PM. Supervising the staff as she unpacks groceries. I see catnip. I also see milk. Staff? You may deserve some purrs and snuggles tonight.


5:39 PM. Watching the staff making dinner. Ground beef is involved.


6:38 PM. The staff is having spaghetti and meatballs. She's made some meatballs for me. Very good, staff.


8:10 PM. Lightning and thunder outside. No worries, staff. You've got me to purr beside you and keep the thunder away.


9:00 PM. The storm continues. Like two cats in a territory fight.


11:36 PM. The storm appears to have ended for the night. The staff is off to bed. Good night, staff, and sleep well. But keep the doors open. I have zoomies scheduled at three in the morning.
