Day 15: conversations with cats
Friday, 10 April 2020 09:20 am"Jyn. Jinian, are you being a pain in the butt? I fear that there is considerable evidence in support of the theory that you're being a pain in the butt." (She's on the desk in front of me, headbutting my chest as I try to type). "Jinian, I wish to suggest that this is not socially acceptable behaviour, and is merely building more evidence in the case against you. I would appreciate it if you could see your way to addressing your levels of evil. I shall be filing complaints at the highest level."
(Mewing). "Hello, Pandy. Yes, I have noticed your existence." (Mew). "No, I really don't believe it's as bad as that." (Mew). "I hear your representations, but I fear you are exaggerating the case." (Mew). "No, honestly that's not true." (Mew, with a sort of squeak because she yawned in the middle). "Your complaints have been noted. However, at this time the management does not see its way to addressing them." (Mew). "No, I am not giving you more catnip, you had some yesterday and it needs to last, besides, you're both evil enough without being drug fiends."
I wish I could say that it's lockdown and isolation which are driving me to long-winded and articulate cat conversations, but frankly I always talk to them like this. Cats and babies, in my lexicon, deserve full sentences, polysyllables, and a touch of formality.
