My morning so far


Lying in bed on my side, staring at the glowing numbers on my clock that say I should have gotten up 15 minutes ago, I give a small cough.

Directly behind me, I hear: SPLASH, clatter, scrabble-scrabble-scrabble.

I know without turning over what sound it is: the sound of my cat being so startled by my tiny cough that she upends my water cup and zooms out of the room. "Thursday, you total spaz," I mutter as I climb out of bed and head to get a towel.

Ah, well; at least the cleanup got me up and moving.

Sounds like it's time for some more cat whispering?

whispering is too loud. You need The Cat Empathizer!
Luckily...i'm The Cat Empathizer!

your cat suffers from Misplaced Hearing Enchancer Syndrome MHES...a treatable ailment. Someone has put a hearing aid into your cat's ears. Take out the device and all will be well.

what a pretty cat btw

Thank you, Cat Empathizer! Remember when she was just a scrawny stray lurking around my parents' bushes?
