Cute, cuddly, and conniving
Adorable, amusing, and arrogant
Territorial, temperamental, and tiny stealer of hearts
Sweet, sure-footed, and stubborn.
I wouldn’t have them any other way – cats.

Things to Do if You are a House Cat
Remind your human, constantly, that you are Top Cat
Claim furniture by diligently scratching with your claws. Bonus if threads appear.
Puke on carpet at the most inopportune time.
Be discerning about your vittles.
Demands pets on your schedule. Bat away unwelcome hands.
Look cute.
Inspire adoration.
Sleep where and when you like.
Vigilate your humans bathroom habits. For instance, stand sentinel as they take a shower or perch by the sink while they brush their teeth/wash their face, and of course demand that the tap remains dripping so you can lap fresh water at your convenience.
Love your person, and if they are a good human, they will worship you in return.
This Slice is inspired by Margaret’s writing prompt at Reflections on the Teche.
Achoo!
“Achoo!”
The sound, like a lightning bolt, jolts me awake. My cat Cleo is perched at the side of my pillow. “Good morning” I reply. I roll over to my back. Cleo follows and nestles onto my chest, purring. I pet him, a willing cat servant.
All the while thinking, I’m not the only one with seasonal allergies.
