apropos of my sulky-ass cat

You know what feels good? It's life following the moment you stop trying to reason with the unreasonable. It's very freeing. I'm going to have to practice this more often.

epiphanies, cats

HA! I read the entry and wondered if I should ask "did the kitties have a paw in inspiring this?" and then I saw the title. :D

I've come to the conclusion that cat's are either the world's most stupid creatures or the world's most malicious. I make certain things quite clear to my two cats. Things like what parts of the house in which they are not to be, etc... etc... I make these things clear through physical correction. They usually get the picture after I give them a firm nudge with my toe or stamp the floor near them. I judge this by the fact that they then run in the opposite direction as fast as they can. However, they insist on returning to where they are not welcome time and time again, a persistance that can be borne only of the utmost in stupidity OR a desire to intentionally irritate me. Given the way they hide nearby and then dart for doors at top speed while dodging me the best they can, it appears they are well aware of the fact I do not want them there, so I can only conclude that they are of a malicious bent and intentionally try to aggrivate me. However, scientific minds have declaired the opposite siting cats that have lost no mental ( ... )

When you chase them away from something, they think you're playing. So they go back to that room / up on the counter because it's just a game. Get a squirt gun, fill it with water, and when they're where you don't want them to be, squirt them. (Don't aim at their faces - it could hurt their eyes and ears.) That way they associate the place with something uncomfortable, and quit going there.

But they are malicious. There's no fucking doubt about that. :)
