Was today typical?
Typical of what? If we mean typical of what would happen to most people most of the time, I hope not. But typical of the usual shite that happens here? Most likely, yes.
Louis Catorze has just dipped his tail into my tea. This has happened before but, on this occasion, he kept it in the cup and swished it around a couple of times. And, when he lifted it back out, he slapped it first onto the sofa and then onto my clothes.
Now, for most normal cats – if you are among the scarce few people on earth who own one of those – a slapping tail is bad news. Every cat book and website warns us that it’s a “Don’t make me angry” warning. But, for Catorze, it’s a sign of contentment. I know how idiotic this sounds, and if you’re a cat behaviourist you will probably be rolling your eyes at how I can possibly be this stupid. But trust me: slappy is happy when it comes to the Catorzian tail.
Anyway, now I need to get another mug. Except I’m TUC so I can’t. Yet I don’t want to go without tea, either, so I’m giving serious thought to reaching for the teapot in front of me and drinking straight from the spout.
What would you do?
Are you:
1. Team Go Tealess Until The Cat Moves?
2. Team Dislodge The Cat And Fetch Another Mug?
3. Team Drink Straight From The Teapot?
4. (Saint Jésus, PLEASE no) Team Drink From The Taily Mug?
