have i been a bad role model?


we have two cats,belle and kitty, which we consider our children. much like parents, we spend way too much time talking about their antics. kitty is the youngest and may i add named by my boyfriend who thought it was a funny name. she has been trained by him to play fetch and high five. cute tricks aside apparently as we discovered this morning, i have not done a good enough job of teaching her to be a lady. she had seated herself in the front window and was washing her butt with her butt facing out the window for the whole world to see. when we spoke to her to stop which she normally replies to, the look she gave was much like this.apparently she wanted the world to see her girl parts and how much pride she was taking in cleaning them. she kept at it for a good 10 minutes. i must admit we could not stop laughing at her.


this is not the first time i have been embarrassed/amused by a cat. when i was in college, our family cat, mouser made a bit of a scene on a visit to the vet. the vet took her temperature rectally which did not sit well with her at all. she immediately jumped down and went to the bathroom on the floor. the flooring was that laminate tile that looks like sand which apparently was what she thought it was. she tried to scratch the floor over her mess to no avail. i was both laughing and crying at the same time in front of the new cute young vet.
