Things to do when it is hots

When it is very hots here, like it is every second of my life lately, I get a little moody. I mraw mraw, I sprawl on the floor and attack my Person's feets, and I lay around and pout. I know this is not the most dignified behavior in the entire world, but I just can't help it because I am a very hairy and big dude and I just can't keep cool and it makes me very grouchy because when I want something, I want it now and I want it on MY OWN TERMS. The hots don't seem to understand this.

I am lucky, though, because my Person seems to really understand how grouchy I am and she does nice things to try to make me feel better. Like she feeds me cheese! I love cheese. My Person says that this makes sense, because she is from a place called Whiskonsin, where they have lots of cheese. The cats there must have HUGE whisker humps because they named the whole place after them, and I bet they get lots of cheese, too! I bet I would like it there.


She also lets me play with my ribbon wand a lot. My ribbon wand was my Krismiss present from my friend Bonnie, who is my Person's person and is also from Whiskonsin. My ribbon wand is a very dangerous creechur with many ribbon arms that attack me and my paws. Like other things (mices on top of the blankets and other cats that could be hiding in the boxes), my Person does not seem to understand how dangerous my ribbon wand is and she will HOLD IT IN HER HAND and I get very upset and so I try to kill it. That is what is going on in this picture. You can see that I am very serious about killing things to keep my Person safe. You can also get a good view of my very big toes, which help me get a better grip on things I am trying to kill.

Sometimes my Person's hands turn into dangerous creechurs too, and then I have to attack them. I hold them with my very big front paws and I kick them with my very big back feets and sometimes I mraw mraw too. Sometimes my Person seems to understand that her hands can turn bad and must be punished, because she does not usually get mad at me for doing this. But just when I think she gets it, then she WILL get mad, and then I realize that that is her AGAIN not understanding that THERE ARE LOTS OF DANGEROUS THINGS AROUND AND SOMETIMES HER HANDS ARE ONE OF THEM. Honestly. I have a really hard job.
