Disciplined by cats #1
As I continue spoiling people by hiding anything over three lines...
We tossed three sets of table sheets in the washer tonight, since W was under the weather and we didn't go out with friends after all. The sheets made the transfer to the dryer all right, but there was a slight mishap when W hauled them out of the dryer.
I was journaling, and suddenly Maisie was at my feet, saying "Meep." It was very precise and staccato, not her usual voice. She kept it up. "Meep." "Meep." "Meep." I figured this was her usual "There's nothing left in the dryer, feed me and put me to bed" statement, and went to check the litter box before swinging by for the food dish.
Well, I have just realized I never scooped the box--because when I got there, she was sitting next to it, and something looked odd...as in, a pillowcase was artistically laying across one third of the box.
Clearly, this Would Not Do.
I apologized and removed the offending article.
When I went to report to W in his office, she was quietly waiting outside the office for me to come out. Because food was #2 on that list, and now that the offending article was gone, food slid right back up to the #1 slot.
Cat priorities.
