Cat Etiquette: or How to be a Groveling Slave in your Own House


This is Dahlia. She prefers canned food to dry, if you don't mind, and tuna or salmon to either of those. If you would kindly try to remember that, many problems could be solved. As a matter of fact, Dahlia will try leaping into the refrigerator to get some of these items if you don't provide them.

Dahlia would like you to sit still for prolonged periods so she can get comfortable on top of you. And if it's not too much trouble, she'd rather not be disturbed once she finds a comfy spot, such as with her rear end in your face.

During the night, Dahlia will get cozy and it really isn't polite if you need to turn over or move your leg. Dahlia is disturbed by that and doesn't like it.

Dahlia and her sister Violet maintain a schedule of activities. If their servant is sitting at the computer, they do sometimes go into another room and it sounds as though they are packing up to go somewhere. One can hear plastic bags being rustled, items dropping to the floor, occasional breakage, boxes being assembled.

Occasionally they join their servant at the computer, where they claw their way up the back of the brand new office chair to perch on top of it and lick the servant.
The licking is very sweet but it's a sandpapery little tongue and in the end comical and causes extensive servant laughter.

You don't want your servants laughing at you, do you?

As I write this, the two of them are rewiring the upstairs electrical system, so I may be kicked offline very soon.
