Tuesday Teach

"Mommy?"

"Yes, my baby Noir."

"Why do you and Tommy call me baby? I'm a MAN CAT!"

"Yes, dear, you try to make we don't forget!"
"So why you call me that?"

"Because Tommy and I remember when you were our baby!"

Mommy smiles so I know I can ask her.

"K. Why did you tell Earl Gray you would head bop me if I didn't let him blog?"

Mommy still smiles. "Because you ARE a man cat, but sometimes you' act like a kitten."

"Huh?"
"Kittens need to be told things a time or two. You are a man cat, Noir. And you needed to remember that too."

"You mean I gotta share the PC. Mommy?"
"Well, yes dear, with everybody-even Tommy."

"Tommy? She has her own blog--this is MINE!"

"Noir, Tommy feeds you. Puts a roof over head. Not all kitties have that."

I sighed. "Oh, all right. If I gotta."

"No, Noir you don't 'gotta,' you must want to. Man cats know right from wrong."

"They do, Mommy?"
Yes, like Perry who still doesn't like me 100%- let me share a window with him."

"Because Perry is a man cat?"

Mommy nodded. "And during International Box Day, you shared with your Uncle!"

"I did, Mommy?"

"Yes Noir, you did. All man cat even as you both played like kittens with the box!"
"WOW!"

"Now, come here Noir. You've learned a good lesson today."

"MOMMY! You're giving me a bath! You said I was a man cat!"

"Yes, you are. I'm proud of you, Noir. You're still my baby and I'm the Mommy."

"But Mommy! You said..."
"And I also say Noir, we're cats. And this is how we roll."

Learning to be a Mancat can take some time! I think being a kitten still is ok!

Noir, your baby picture made our Mommy get all mushy! What a cutie! It's okay to stay a kitten for awhile :)

It is? OK--sometimes still being the kitten is pretty cool.

Listen to your Mommy, Noir. They always know best, whether they're human or cat. Especially if they're cat. You'll always be your mommy's baby. 4 out of 5 of us had the same mommy kitty...we wish we had her with us. You're *so* lucky to have your mommy cat.

Although the head bops can't be fun... ;)

You kitties stay cool too in today's supposed-to-be record heat!

Purrs and hugs,
The Kitty Krew

Tommy says she wishes we had jobs to pay the electric bill 'cause of the a/c! Oh well. And Tommy also agrees not every Mommy can stay with her babies, so to remember how blessed I am.
