damn kitty

[thehefner]

... my cat is doing this to me purposely.

Georgio knows that he bugs the hell out of me, staring at me and meowing incessantly every second I'm not paying attention to him. He knows I hide up in my room while he's outside, so that I can actually get writing done without him distracting me, demanding attention, food, and being let inside, only to demand I let him back outside a few minutes later.

He knows this. That's why I haven't seen for the past 24 hours. He's punishing me for daring to hide upstairs rather than constantly foisting attention upon his wonderful cat-self at every second. He also knows that I would have seen the new family of raccoons coming by to steal his food as they often do. They live in peace; Georgio's always been smart enough to stay out of their way, and vice-versa. But these are newer, younger ones than before, thus leading me to visions of the cat being carried off by raccoons.*

He knows I'm getting NO work done because I'm still down here worried about him. Because I'm a total worrywart. He knows this. He's so dedicated to punishing me that he hasn't even touched his food in a day.

... damn it, I hope the little jerk's okay.





*Fun fact: my grandmother still believes that the reason her beloved cancer-ridden dog disappeared one day was because a neighbor kid kidnapped it, got together with his friends, and sacrificed the dog to Satan. Because the kid wore black, y'see.

Cats do this--he'll be back. Maybe he'll bring a little army back with him!

I know they do! But I still seriously thought he wouldn't. While this was in character for cats in general, not hanging around the house even to eat (!!!) was out-of-character for Georgio.

Kitties are cruel little monsters who know exactly how to hurt you. They're the ex-boy/girlfriends of the animal world.

I'm typing with one on my arm today because he's feeling neglected with my mom in the city keeping my dad company.

It's so bloody true. Or if not, they're the abusive, obsessive, demanding spouses-for-life.

See this is why I let the cat sit on me, but ignore her. She can have my lap, but I am using my hands, damn it.

*hug* I'm sure little fella's just fine. I didn't know you had a cat, as a side note.

I wish I could do that, but dang it, I must pace!

I do indeed. I'm a total cat person. At least, I am when they're not as demanding and needy as dogs, as my cat has become. But with all the manipulative prowess of a cat. A deadly combination, that.

I don't think I'll ever get used to the intelligence of a cat, really. I'm pretty set in my ways by now, and prefer bunnies--which is why it doesn't register when one of the house cats is stupid--because she's about as intelligent as a rabbit.

*sends hopeful thoughts for your cat*

It's insane. Half my friends list has had weird cat problems/illnesses/deaths, (including me, with the second and third options) all starting during the end of the summer.

I'm hoping you find your cat safe and sound.

Thankfully, I seem to have escaped the curse that's plagued your friends. That just sucks, I'm so sorry to hear that, for all of them.

They have good instincts, cats. Odds are good he'll be back. Thinking good thoughts your way.
