Wide Awake Cats

This does not mean that we are not taking our mandatory naps, but that when we are awake, we are wide-awake. This started with Her. You know it is my job to wake Her up each day, and sometimes it requires several massages to get the job done. Today was different. She woke up by Herself and it was so early that He hadn't even started the coffee-the-drink brewing. It wasn't just me. He was astonished to see Her up so early. That meant that I had to get on with the morning routine when I would be having my last hours of sleep, and I was a little groggy, to tell you the truth. I had to shake my head to get both of my eyes open at once. The day went along just like any other - except earlier, so when He needed Her computer, She went and sat in Her chair. You will never believe what happened then. I don't believe it myself. I got into snuggling position, and Kasey came and got on Her lap. Kasey has never, ever, never, ever gotten on Her lap before. In fact, she just started getting on His lap the other day. She wonders if some spaceman came and stole Kasey and left a sweet kitty in her place. Kasey leaned over and touched my nose with hers, then settled down and the two of us just had a nice, soft napping zone. I know you think I was dreaming, but no. I was wide awake. He saw it, too. I am not at all sure about how I feel about sharing Her tummy with Kasey. I was nice and polite today, but Kasey had better not make a habit of wanting that lap. She got something out of the freezer for our dinner, and I didn't recognize what it was. It didn't look like fish, and it was too red to be chicken, so I broke down and asked Her. She said it was short ribs. That didn't tell me much, so I guess I'll find out when they are cooked and served up. I bet She will fall asleep right after dinner tonight, since She was awake so early. Oddy-ose, amigos.
