Yes , Miss Ivy has spoken out about her displeasure with me for changing
where I sit in the morning when I take a look at my computer to check in with
the world via the Internet . Much to my surprise she registered her
annoyance by fervently scratching on the upholstered chair that sits beside a
small desk that I wanted to use when computering . Yes , that is a real
word ! I have always thought that "words are fun" . Call me crazy
- it won't be the first .
Back to Ivy's behavior . Her yowling and scratching convinced me to move
back to the sofa so she can sit beside me and fall asleep or jump easily to
her Cat Tower when she desires . What a spoiled cat ! I love her
new trust and independence but this is "a little much" .
I must convince her that she is not Royalty but I don't think she will pay
me any mind when she sees that I have ordered a new Cat Tower for her
because she has torn up (from scratching) the covering of the current Tower
. Scratching on the Tower is good because that is what I want instead
of using the furniture or carpet flooring . The old Tower is 53 inches
tall . The new Tower is taller at 69 inches inches . Sitting up
that high just might make her think "She Is A Queen" .
When I bought the old Tower I did not know the importance of ordering one with carpet covering . The old one has a lightweight cotton covering that does not hold up to
purposeful scratching !
Just this morning Ivy was running around , in and out of rooms , ending by jumping on her current Cat Tower and it shifted from side to side as if it was going to end up horizontally on the floor ! But , it didn't . I hope the new tower is waited at the bottom . If not , I may have to pile a stack of heavy books on the base ! 😄
I'll let you know if I think Ivy needs an attitude adjustment when she
sits atop of her new Cat Tower and thinking it is a Castle for the privileged and beckoning her staff to pet her luxurious fluff !!!
Motherhood can be so challenging !!!

My husband Sr P always said when our cat was with us. That we didn't own him he owned us and our home wasn't ours it was his!! I love cats but they certainly have regal personalities!! Miss Ivy is rather adorable though ,isn't she!! keep well Amanda :-)
ReplyDeleteBut-cats ARE royalty!!! Just ask them (haha). I bet sweet Miss Ivy will love spending time on her new tower. Hopefully she will not bat your head as you pass by. When I was a girl we had a cat, Lulu, who would sit on top of the refrigerator (nice and warm) and smack your head when you walked by.
