SOME OF YOU HAVE MET OLIVER BEFORE…HE’S ON LOAN TO US FROM THE “MUSEUM OF THE SON WHO HAD TO MOVE AWAY FOR A JOB”.
I THINK THAT HE MAY REMAIN ON DISPLAY HERE…BUT, WITH SON’S BLESSING OF COURSE.
THE MOMENT THAT I GO TO MY DESK TO BEGIN WORKING ON MY “SUPER SECRET PROJECT”, OLIVER JUMPS UP ON SAID DESK AND FINDS THE MOST INCONVENIENT SPOT POSSIBLE TO STRETCH OUT ON.
HE NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO TOUCH AND FEEL EVERYTHING THAT I PICK UP.
HAVING COMPLETED HIS QUALITY CONTROL CHECK, HE LAYS ON TOP OF THE SMALL ITEMS THAT I NEED TO WORK WITH…I’VE TOLD HIM REPEATEDLY THAT THEY DON’T NEED TO BE WARMED UP TO BE USED.
I ASKED IF, AS MY SUPERVISOR, HE COULD COMPLETE MY QUARTERLY JOB REVIEW FORM.
HE TOOK THE FORM BACK TO HIS OFFICE AND AN HOUR AND A HALF LATER, HE RETURNED IT TO ME.
NOW I’M AFRAID THAT I’M GOING TO BE FIRED…
HE HAD WRITTEN ONLY THREE WORDS ON THE FORM…”YOU’RE LAZY, ZANNYRO.”
NO ONE CAN JUDGE YOU LIKE A CAT.

What a fabulous photo! Cats do love to be at the centre of things. Everything is about THEM. 🙂

Yes, they just know that they’re the center of the universe.

Oh you are so in trouble… cats never give good reviews, they are just made that way… but lazy? I think that is the only word they know…

I AM in trouble…Oliver hasn’t learned lazy yet. He’s always eager and willing to wrestle our poor 13 year old dog…little Max. They are the same size. This dog never barked and certainly never growled or showed his teeth before Ollie came to stay.
He only does this to Ollie in self defense and because he’s outraged that the cat would wrap his arms around him and bite him in the back of the neck.
Sometimes I just see a ball of cat and dog roll by…then the dog spends the next two days sleeping on daughters bed, recovering.

I love cats and I have a special fondness for Oliver as he’s so much like my mom’s cat that we all loved for so many years.

Very much so. I did a blog post about her. It was a long time ago so I think I’ll re-post it.
