"Mummy! Alex is being bad!"
"What the... no I'm not!"
"Are too! Are too!!"
"Am not. And look who's talking, COUNTER CAT! I hear Daddy can no longer leave his breakfast cereal unattended up there. And when are you humans gonna ditch this smelly old banana?"
"Now, just let me settle down here on this comfy bird-covered placemat on your kitchen table. Ahhhhhh!"
"If you have a problem with that, you can talk to the paw!"
"Hey! What about my paw? Much more feminine than Alex's!"
Yep, I give up. The cats have taken over...
I adore you. I envy you. You have such richness in your life what with all the critters. If the dogs overheard the cats' conversation, I suspect they said, "Huh, what was that? Talk to the Paw? I didn't know my own Paw. Give me the banana if you're going to be so picky."
ReplyDeleteA most happy holiday to you and Gordon and to the menagerie. I suspect you are not having duck for dinner?
Aw, thank you Stephen! That made me happy. :) Happy holidays to you and yours too! Eat lots of good cookin'!

I always get a such a bang out of your photogenic kitties. The one on top of the potholder is adorable. Keep those animal photos coming! By the way, how are the ducks lately?
ReplyDeleteOh, it's about time I took some poultry photos. Stay tuned!!
DeleteAlex seriously looks as though he's just been busted!
ReplyDeleteJane x
He can't hide his badness!
DeleteAlex looks guilty..
ReplyDeleteHe IS guilty! Guilty as sin!! :)
DeleteNot only cats know how to take control . Dogs can train you too. I could never train a dog. They would have me trained in no time.
ReplyDeleteIt's true. Dogs are GREAT at training us silly humans!
Delete"If you have a problem with that, you can talk to the paw!"
ReplyDeleteThis is why I no longer keep liquids near my keyboard.
You are wise not to! :)
DeleteI like Red's comment. Damn dog stretches out on the couch around here and doesn't like anyone sitting too close to him.
ReplyDeleteWell, it's HIS couch, right? :)
DeleteMy Tabby (and I presume all Tabbies) has jet black fur on the back of his hind legs. That's my favourite bit!
ReplyDeleteIt's a little surprise, isn't it? So black!
DeleteI finally have two cats that don't get on the counter. However, they don't mind hopping up on the dining room table in the middle of guests using it. That can be a tich embarrassing and it doesn't help things when I tell my guests to share a bit of their food and the cats won't get up to help themselves. Some people just don't get it.
ReplyDeleteI tought you knew that already :)
ReplyDeleteI seem to need reminding from time to time. :)
DeleteAs they say, "Dogs have owners, cats have staff." Beautiful photos. Clear proof that cats SHOULD rule the world.
ReplyDeleteI think the world might be a better place if they did. Of course, dogs would be their servants!
DeleteThat's the way it should be!!!
ReplyDeleteThere is no bad kitty, just naughty, and Santa forgives all of that.
A good thing, too!!
