I've been over it with them before. "THIS IS DADDY'S CAMERA! DO NOT TOUCH IT!"

I can't even go outside for 20 minutes!!! I come back,
the unit is on, the batteries are draining, and there are
nose prints all over the lense!

WHAT IS IT WITH CATS TODAY???

You don't have property. It is their property. You are only there to serve. Learn and obey.

Dear Mr. Jimmypoo,

While we regret leaving nose and pawprints all over our camera, we stand behind our decision to use it as we saw fit. After all, it is our camera, you are only our human hands. You exist to service us, and your tenancy in our household is dependent on that fact. We ask that you replace the batteries, as our paws are insufficient to the task. Oh, and while you're at it, if you could turn it off, that would be just wonderful, as we often forget and leave it on.

Yours,

The Cats (Rulers) of the Household

P.S. ... we would also appreciate your feeding us something else other than that awful shrimp stuff. We want beef, preferably Kobe.

P.P.S. ... and if you could also change our litter pan soon, we'd appreciate that too. We feel a sudden urge coming on... and you know how grumpy we get when the litter's dirty. It makes us want to go somewhere else.

>WHAT IS IT WITH CATS TODAY???

Cats!
What the devil's wrong with these cats today?
Cats!
Who could guess that they would turn out that way!
Why can't they be like we were,
Perfect in every way?
What's the matter with cats?
What's the matter with cats?
What's the matter with cats today

Don't ask who the bell's for, dude. It's you.

I much prefer the Chinese use of cats.

As filler in fresh, steamed bao...

Darby Conley is my secret comic strip artist boyfriend. Have you seriously seen a picture of him? Dang.

Aaaanyway, consider yourself lucky. I would love to have a cat. I'm trying to work up to the "responsibility" of having a cat by maybe September or October.

Yours are adorable. I wonder how they figured out the way to work the shutter though...

PeterB, good one, really! Here's a bouncing smiley just for you.

Roswell, GA (Atlanta suburb)

The Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat:
If you offer him pheasant he would rather have grouse.
If you put him in a house he would much prefer a flat,
If you put him in a flat then he'd rather have a house.
If you set him on a mouse then he only wants a rat,
If you set him on a rat then he'd rather chase a mouse.
Yes the Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat -
And there isn't any call for me to shout it:
For he will do
As he do do
And there's no doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore:
When you let him in, then he wants to be out;
He's always on the wrong side of every door,
And as soon as he's at home, then he'd like to get about.
He likes to lie in the bureau drawer,
But he makes such a fuss if he can't get out.
Yes the Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat -
And there isn't any call for you to doubt it:
For he will do
As he do do
And there's no doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast:
His disobliging ways are a matter of habit.
If you offer him fish then he always wants a feast;
When there isn't any fish then he won't eat rabbit.
If you offer him cream then he sniffs and sneers,
For he only likes what he finds for himself;
So you'll catch him in it right up to the ears,
If you put it away on the larder shelf.
The Rum Tum Tugger is artful and knowing,
The Rum Tum Tugger doesn't care for a cuddle;
But he'll leap on your lap in the middle of your sewing,
For there's nothing he enjoys like a horrible muddle.
Yes the Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat -
And there isn't any call for me to spout it:
For he will do
As he do do
And there's no doing anything about it!

Just be glad you don't have a copy machine.

I have come home on a few occasions to find the television on (when it hadn't even been turned on once that day) and my cats and dogs in the living room. No joke.

Let's just say I try to keep an eye on my drink when I get up to use the litter box. I mean, bathroom.
