Friday Cat Blogging: Three Day Weekend!

It’s my Friday off! Time to dance with the cats again! Do you think I’ll be able to get my felines out of bed? I swear this is their favorite thing to do besides wrestling over the best sunbeams: Sleep on my bed, sometimes fighting over the prime real estate. They even get pissed off when I don’t trundle up to bed by 10pm: They hop on my bed at about 9:30, assume their positions in their negotiated places, and wait. And wait. If I do not join them in a timely fashion Gabby is elected Ambassador and comes downstairs to bitch. If that doesn’t work Chase joins her. Then Lily will come downstairs and all three of them will stand behind me, watching me peck away at my computer. If I look at them they MEOW really loud, like “It’s bed time WTF????”

My first two cats, Allistaire and MacKenzie, used to wake me up in the mornings to beg for their breakfasts, but sadly they’ve both gone to Kitty Heaven. My new felines don’t wake me up; in fact I could sleep all day for all they care. Timing is not important to them: Gabby eats out of all three dishes and howls all day for food, and that’s why she’s FAT. Beefy Chase and little squirt Lily don’t seem to care, and that’s why they’re not. Would you believe they have such distinctive personalities that I can tell them apart in the dark?
