CARPE DIEM Carpe diem quam minimum credula postero! "Seize the day, trusting little to the future", as my wife likes to declare, upon arising! You may have thought this very thing, upon arising, today, but the cat had, perhaps, cast a spell during the night, and other words, not quite these, came out, instead....
At 4 am hubby said something like "that cat is so loud that the neighbors probably want to poison him." The cat was inside the house, but we were sure he was keeping the whole street up. Poor kitty just wants to go out and get smooshed in the street by the garbage truck.
POOR DEAD KITTY Perhaps your husband had thought of the same thing, himself! Men sometimes have a poor sense of humor, when it comes to missing their sleep!
Oh God no, he loves that damn cat. I'm the one who has it in for that whiny piece of shit cat. The reason we adopted him in the first place was because he was lying in the street whining pitifully with his hip all ripped open from a ruptured abscess. He was in big trouble and would not shut up about it. So we took him to a vet. They said he wouldn't make it through the weekend. He did. Then he got better. And then he started purring non-stop...that lasted just long enough for us to decide he was adorable and to decide to keep him. As soon as we officially fell in love with him he started back up with the whiny, bratty, let me out all the time stuff. The little runt. I can't even pretend I don't work from home, because every time I'm on the phone with a client they can hear that cat in the background. Meooooow. Ahem.
I DON'T GET NO GRATIFICATION RG, you don't suppose your cat just wanted to get some "gratification", do you?
