                    Sunday Selfie: This Is My Life Now

Yes, Kitties, it has come to this. I must needs nap away my days, starving, unloved and unplayed-with* as the Human spends all her waking hours and what little energy she possesses at her advanced age at her loathesome (to me) j-o-b. Oh, she talks a good game ("It'll be summer soon, Spitty, and we'll have a good time then, Spitty"), but I have excellent reason to be skeptical. Promises are cheap and follow-through far from guaranteed. At least she *was* helping me post, till last Tuesday, that is. Then even my single line to the outside world was unceremoniously severed. Oh, the Humanity! It's an outrage is what it is.
* Okay, maybe not starving.

    But Spitty, the summer IS coming soon. And we bet your human has every good intention of keeping those promises. :)

    I agree - it is an outrage. Let's talk about a battle plan, Spitty. I'm happy to lend my assistance - just say the word.

    Spitty, Admiral knew how that was. You may recall the two of you whispering softly into the many nights when her mom was working only to go to bed as soon as she got home. As you came over then, during the lonely times,so I will do for you. Let's whisper and snuggle. I'll bring Donkey.

    Poor Spitty, you are having a very hard time but bear in mind that the hateful j-o-b provides the green papers which prevent you from starving - life could be even worse!

    You know, normally we would tell you to be patient, but based on our own experiences, we KNOW that humans are notorious fibbers. Here we might get something we've asked for after weeks of waiting, so we're not holding out a lot of hope for your human's summer promises. Sorry, pal.

    She needs to retire and make it her first priority to play with you.

    Poor Spitty...so mistreated! Earning those green papers to buy stuff is hard work, and takes too much time. You don't happen to have a gold hoard hidden in your cat bed, eh Spitty?

    *sigh* We know firsthand that humans talk a good game, but can they walk the walk? Sometimes...but forget we said that. All we get around here is "Soon." What is this word, "Soon?" And why must it be used so often??

    Oh the blasted J-O-B. It really does put a damper on a kitty's lifestyle. Who wants to plan for the future, when you could be getting what you want right now!
