"We got a new chaaaaaaair, Spitty, a new chaaaaaaair.
It's so nice and collllllllorful, too, but you have some fleas again and we just started
the Advantage, so I'm going to put this nice white dishtowel
on the new chaaaaaaair so we can see if there are any fleas,
since it's a new chaaaaaaair and all.
Oh, and nooooooo, you can't dig your claws into the back of it
or I will be really annoyed and I will pile a bunch of junk
on the new chaaaaaaair so that you won't be able
to sit on it at all, and you won't like thaaaaaaat, will you?"
No way do you have fleas!
ReplyDeleteSadly, I do. But not many, and they're the VERY BEST fleas.
DeleteOnly the most elite would come to your um...table.
DeleteWhy did she bother to get a new chair if you can't use it, Spitty?????
ReplyDeleteHow did you get fleas? Since you never leave the place, methinks that they've been brought inside by the Human. So - let's get her taking Advantage, shall we?
ReplyDeleteAnd the new chair might well be colourful, but it isn't textured, so I feel that you've got the job ahead of you. There's no point her piling junk on it - she didn't need to spend green papers on a chair if she just wanted somewhere to put more junk. She could have just stacked it on the floor along with the rest!

YES, it is TOTALLY her doing. See below. It's an outrage, is what it is. I dunno--do they make Advantage for the Peeps? 'Cause they should.
DeleteOh no! You have fleas?

Yes I do! And it's the Human's fault because she got overconfident last fall and stopped giving me the Advantage and then when summer came *SHE* must have dragged some in and they took up residence on ME. If she had just kept giving me the Advantage this would not have happened. Right? Right.
DeleteSpitty, you know Admiral and I both have complained to you many a long night about that cursed but needed solution. For us, it spreads in an icky mess all over our neck and shoulders and mom can't cuddle us. And, we both could smell it coming and going no matter how she has tried to approach us with that vial without us being alerted and trying to run. I think it stings us, really.
DeleteGeez, Spitty, kind of makes you want to hurl, doesn't it? Right on the new chair.
ReplyDeleteThe tailio says it all. White dishcloth - that has t be furred and flea-ed up as a matter of urgency. And as she removes it to replace it, in that nanosecond - OWN the chaaaaaaaair.
ReplyDeleteI say the new chair needs some claw-work.
ReplyDeleteFleas?? Where's the hazmat suit?? ;) Spitty, I say if she piles stuff up on the chair, you should knock it all down and sleep on the pretty fabric!!
ReplyDeleteit either all belongs to the kitty or none of it does! i think the new chair is lovely and of course it belongs to you. you are the one home with it all damn day!
ReplyDeleteShe's a real buzzkill, isn't she Spitty?
ReplyDeleteWe noticed that snazzy chair before and wondered how long it would take for your human to wreck it for you, Spitty. But still it's probably better than here--there are towels all over with plastic bits under them because someone here sometimes leaks when she sleeps and there are no Depends for cats.
ReplyDeleteIt does make for some crinkly noises though--kinda entertaining.
Yeah, as soon as we saw "new chaaaaaaaair:, we figured it would get all covered and protected real quick!
ReplyDeleteSpitty, we know we commented here about the chair and the fleas...unless the petretary forgot to hit publish. We don't understand how you get fleas when you sty inside. Mom Mary must be bringing them home. Anyhoo, we are trying this commenting again. And mom thinks the chair is marvy. Whatevs!
