Madoc is in a LOT of trouble, this morning

[Siwsan]

First he tried pummeling me into wakefulness at about 5:30. OK, I was awake but pretending to still be sleeping. After a few minutes one of the other kidcats came to my defense and a mild physical skirmish broke out. I'm not sure who the gallant kidcat was because I continued to pretend to be asleep.

THEN he knocked my precious Henry VIII Bosson Head off of the mantel, where I THOUGHT I had it safely secured. Fortunately it did not break. It actually flew at the perfect angle to land in the nylon 'cat tunnel' that was on the carpet. Not sure who/what intervened but I am grateful. It is now moved to the curio cabinet, behind a glass door.

Every time he does something like that, he walks to where ever I am, plops down on the floor and stares, defiantly, at me.

He might be a Prince of Cats but he's a King of Jerks. He's lucky I love him so much.

1. It's funny, I find that I'm willing to forgive kitty behavior a lot more readily than human behavior

[Siwsan]

2. Absolutely

He makes up for his bad behavior with some excellent snuggles.

[Polly Hennessey]

3. It's called attention, which he wants.

Sleep, well, that’s for sissies.

[Siwsan]

6. He's sleeping well, right now!

Snuggled up next to me.

4. "King of Jerks"!!😀😂😀aren't they all. nt

[Jerry2144]

11. No. not at all

The others are Queen of Jerks

[Rorey]

5. At least he didn't come marching through the living room with a little tail hanging out of his mouth

As one of mine did yesterday.

7. Cats are jerks! But they're cute jerks....

...so they get away with it and I SWEAR they know it.

8. Poooor baby was feeling ignored, perhaps?? Tes, they can be jerks, but they are

so wonderful that we forgive them almost anything.

My poor guy is huddled close because of all the noise and upset of the damned construction next door. My bed is shaking.

[TygrBright]

9. Two words: "Museum Putty" n/t

[wnylib]

10. The defiant stare is standard follow up after

knocking something to the floor. Happens every time.

I know that Ember does it for attention, but I suspect that there's also an FU aspect to it.

12. Maybe you're just not speaking his language?

[Siwsan]

13. I'll have to try that!
