A Kitty’s Work Is Never Done

April 10, 2012 By: Sparkle Cat44 Comments

My schedule is very full - you will have to make an appointment.

Let’s see… in the past couple of days, I have

  • Gifted my human with a festive, Easter egg-shaped hairball.
  • Run thundering sprints from the bedroom to the dining room and back to make sure that my human had, in fact, fallen back asleep after waking up just before dawn. Results were inconclusive.
  • Had a powerful hind-leg workout, thanks to the Tickle Pickle.
  • Traded smacky paws with Binga several times over a number of disputes.
  • Stared down my human and poked her for not jumping to attention and feeding me the moment I sent her the message to feed me via kitty mind meld.
  • Coached my human on what to say during this Thursday’s talk at the library.

If you want some of my time, you may have to take a number.

    The egg-shaped hairball was a nice touch! I’ll have to remember that for next Easter. Way cool about your human’s well-coached (thanks to you) library talk tomorrow. Well done!

      I don’t think Binga is qualified for any of this! She does not even make good hairballs.

    Yowsers Sparkle, you are busy for sure! That is one interesting list of things to be busy with…especially the thundering sprints, that really appeals to me! I might have to add that one to my list too…

    Ms. Sparkle–the Kitty Mind Meld? Are you related to Mr. Spock and have powers we do not know ALL of??? Quite the list and busy you are. Hmm. Your human oughta appreciate you–especially on the Easter Egg hairball. Festive feline you are. 🙂

    Great work, Sparkle. I have given my mom her workout by having her run back and forth to turn on the faucet for me, learned to fight the Pomeranian face-to-face (she respects me now), and shown Mom how cuddling me in the middle of the night will give her better dreams. Sigh…our work is never done.

    You are extraordinarily busy. I think you will need to try the thundering sprints again. You need solid data.

    Sassy woke Mommie up last night doing an Under the Bed Barf, but I do not think that she was talented enough to make it Easter Egg shaped!

    You are a furry bizzy girl! I like to do the multiple yak trick, myself. I usually do it while mama is sleeping or just falling asleep. I do one big yak in her bedroom, then a little one outside her dore, then another little one in the living room, then another little one….well, you get the idea. My record so far is 9 yaks!
