Things have been getting out of hand lately. Today, I spent HOURS composing a further list of instructions for my human slave. She had better take note or else.
Instructions for the Slave
1.If I enter a room, you- human slave - must stop whatever you are doing and tend to my needs.
2. If I call out from the upstairs of the house, you must stop whatever you are doing and again attend to my needs. It may be something of vital importance.
3. When Baby Mao wins a Halloween Contest, you will, in my presence, refrain from fussing and fawning over your 'special little winner'.
4. When I am stood next to the sink, it is a non verbal agreement that you will turn on the tap and then lift me so that I may sup from the faucet.
5. When I grab onto your arm with my claws, I want attention. Instantly.
6. When I sit outside of the litter tray and howl, I want the litter to be changed. Instantly.
7. When you are eating dinner, you will share your plate with me. Whatever you are eating, I want. Whatever you are eating is therefore mine.
8.You will NOT eat yoghurt in my presence without offering it to me first.
9. You WILL spoon feed me yoghurt whenever I demand.
10. You will NOT cuddle other cats in my presence. You know who I mean.
11. You will not come home from work and then go out again. You will be at my beck and call for a minimum of twelve hours a day.
12. Whenever you return with shopping, you will have gifts for me. No matter how small, all are welcome and expected.
13. You will set up the electric blanket within the next few days. I am fed up with being cold all the time.
Yours, ever mis-trusting of my human's ability to take orders
