The Joys of Having a Cat in the House for the First TIme in Decades…

While my lovely daughter Meagan is visiting her sister in Florida, I’ve been tasked with ‘kitten-sitting’ Monty (I guess he’s technically my ‘grand-kitten.)

Yes, I am more of a ‘dog’ person but anyone who knows me knows that for 14 years I was owned by one very strange, hysterical and evil cat “Flake the Wonder Puss…”

Since Flake has been gone for over 20 years, I was a little rusty on my cat-owning skills. So this weekend was a weekend of discovery…you know things I forgot about cats. Stuff like:

1 – An uncanny ability to spread cat litter miles from the cat box

2 – Anything and I mean A N Y thing is indeed a ‘cat toy’

3 – Kittens have built in radar that places them directly between your feet at all times

4 – Apparently my legs look just like a scratching post to a kitten.

5 – Doesn’t matter what it is, if a cat is supposed to eat it, it smells disgusting.

6 – Kittens are fascinated by toilets (at least Monty is)

7 – Play time starts at 1:00am

8 – Dogs have NO sense of humor when it comes to kittens (sorry Frank)

9 – The top of my head is the greatest vantage point on the planet.

10 – When you tell a kitten to ‘knock it off’, what they hear is ‘please continue to do that annoying thing you’re doing…’
