Yeah, but when they want something, they're all affectionate and friendly.
Working on my computer the other day and my Deetoo comes in crying and
wailing more than usual. I ignore her as I try to do and next thing I know,
she's tromping on my keyboard rubbing up against me, kneading and head
butting way more than she usually does. I push her off to the side trying
get her to lay down on the folded towel I keep beside my computer, but it's
a wasted effort, she's still all over me. I can't get rid of her. After ten
minutes of all this attention it occurs to me that I haven't filled her food
dish for some time. I go out and it's empty of kibble. I fill it up and
she's into it like a flash. Didn't hear another peep from her for the next
six hours. She got what she wants and I'm of no use anymore. Just like a
woman.

You know what? There is just NO excuse for that. You're surfing the net and
Deetoo goes hungry??? What is the # of the ASPCA in your area? I'm gonna
call. If I have to keep the food machine going I sure don't see why you
should get a pass. No sir. No excuse.

Well if you turn me into the Canadian SPCA I might be forced to live on
reindeer biscuits for a month, but please don't report me to your border
control. The next time I visit the US from Canada, I don't want them waiting
to ship me off to Guantanamo Bay. :)

Last night Isis came down and was bug bug bugging me. Her bowl was empty
because I let it get empty.
Come on down. We'll share a cell with our cats in Guantanamo in the Cheney
wing. It has an ocean view.

I'd just like to stick my hand in there and see what happens. I do it with
Isis. 95% of the time nothing bad happens. It's a test of courage.
