Chacun tire la couverture de son bord 

After arriving home one day, Cat Daddy was greeted by this sight: 

For crying out loud.

Yes, it’s annoying enough that Louis Catorze would have pulled the blanket off the radiator to sleep on it. However, what really irked me is that he was the reason why it the blanket needed washing and drying in the first place. 

The little sod was slapping his tail around (which he does when he’s happy – yes, I know it’s weird) with such force that he knocked my mug right over, spilling matcha latte all over the blanket:

Ugh.

Anyway, the blanket has been washed and is now clean. However, it’s only a matter of time until the next stupid thing happens. And, because I’m not back at work just yet, no doubt I’ll have a ringside seat.

      Matcha is a green tea powder, and the blanket photo makes it look a bit yellow. I drink it the way most people drink coffee.

    Who can resist a fresh clean warm blanket?

    Smart kitty. The blanket would have been warm and cozy off the radiator

      And it would have been clean. Well, once upon a time, anyway.

    Matcha latte? That was a waste. The best thing though is not to make it at all. He did give it a justified end.

    At least he didn’t kick an entire mug of coffee across a bed soaking a nice clean set of bedding and a new duvet. Which cat did that? Erm, neither. I had a clumsy moment.

      You kicked coffee? Did you drop-kick it like a rugby ball?

        It was on the bedside table and somehow I hoofed it across the bed. I’ve still no idea what the details of the incident were.

    Oooh, a radiator-warmed blanket! That is a truly luxurious napping spot, befitting royalty such as yourself, mon roi. Purrs, DV

        Sadly, our current homestead only has forced air heat, not the lovely radiators that double as blanket warmers. Purrs, DV

    Poor Louis, it isn’t his fault if his tail is such energetic. Take heart and be ready to seize the day. 😺

        It’s certainly different. Dog-like in action and reptilian in appearance.

    Miss Rosie is jealous, there are no radiators in our apartment, and I don’t even turn on the heat because it makes too much noise, so it’s pretty cold around here 😦

      Would she pull blankets off radiators if you had them?

        She probably would if we had a radiator, if it were on, and if it were nap time 🙂
