Persia is normally very polite.  If she wants to wake me up, she taps me on
my shoulder.  The last couple of days she's decided that is simply not good
enough.  She's tapping me on my *ear*, then purring loudly in it.  Okay,
okay! (I groan) I'm awake.  I roll back over to snag a couple more Z's.
Next thing I know she's (gently) biting my ear, then tapping on it and
purring.  Persia, if you swallow my earring, you're in BIG trouble girl! :o)

So what happens?  I stagger to the kitchen to make coffee and her Highness
curls up and goes back to sleep.  What did you wake me up for, you little
wench? LOL

Side note:  I found a less expensive online supplier for that Hill's x/d
food the vet said she needed to eat.  Good, because *I* won't be able to eat
if I have to keep paying $28 for 24 cans.  Also ordered two bags of the dry.
When I take her for her post-op checkup tomorrow, I will take the jar of
Barley Cat with me and ask the vet what he thinks about her continuing to
have it.  She adores the stuff and I figure she needs an occasional treat,
even if she is now tapping my ears.
