Observant Cats
In our lifetimes, Casey and I have heard our fellow cats ask why we feel we need to have a pet human. I have given that some careful thought, and I have some of the answer, but there may be more to it. First of all, they are so darn cute. They get into their chairs and their beds and we just can't resist want to snuggle them. Most of the time, they behave rather well, doing whatever it is they do while we have our naps. Sometimes, though, they tend to be noisy and unpredictable, and we have to keep them in line by getting on their arms or chests or tummies to distract them from their little games they call work. They have a lot of different sounds, but if you pay close attention, you can see that they are doing their best to understand you, and they can't believe we don't know what all the so-called words mean. Humans come in different sizes, but only the tiniest of them are the size of the cat that owns them. They get suspicious when you try to train this tiny human. Although the big ones are quite big, they are not dangerous, and have no intention of hurting us, unless they are wicked boys who have mental problems. Or the ones who want us to avoid having kittens. I am OK with that, because too many kittens use up great amounts of kibble meant for us. Most humans don't have much fur, and they often cover themselves with false fur so they don't get cold. It is usually smooth, and doesn't feel at all like real fur, but they provide this for themselves, so I can't change anything. One of their best qualities is that they have thumbs. You wouldn't believe how those things come in handy for taking care of us. I have heard that there are a few that have lost thumbs in some sort of accident, but I wouldn't want one of those. It is nice to know they forage for their own food, sometimes while securing kibbles for us. I often check out Her food, to be sure it is healthy. Our female is very old, and I don't want Her to get sick. That is all I can think of as to why we have humans. They are simply adorable when they are sleeping or playing on their computers. TaTa for now.
