And The Oscar Goes To

Hi everyone, Katie here.

Bet you didn't know I've been keeping company with the likes of Meryl Streep, Helen Mirren... Sure, Meryl may have lost count of how many friends named Oscar she has. And Mirren, well she's an award winning Queen. Did you know Prince Charles even made her a Dame?

But it is ME that deserves an award for my convincing and moving portrayal of an affectionate cat devoted to her girl.

Just look at this scene. Now THIS is award winning acting. I'm a method actor. I'm in the zone, playing an affectionate and loving cat. I bet you can hardly tell I'm acting at all. I'm not sleeping either... I'm concentrating on the moment, and my character's thought process.

If you read that accusatory dribble Glogirly called a Guest Blog over on I Have Cat a couple weeks ago, you already know that I am a skilled manipulator of human behavior. I've got Glogirly thinking I don't like her and in fact, favor Gloman.

Well the truth is, I play Glogirly. I play Gloman.

And I love it.

Playing the two of them is what gets me up in the morning. I love making HER think that I depend upon her soley for caloric sustenance and litter box maintenance. I love making HIM think I'm a gullible and obedient dog-cat... coming when he calls, rolling over, fetching.

This is me, messing with Gloman. Pretending to be a dog.

Just another act.

Devoted BFF. Yup, just another act.

Every once in awhile I put on a show for Glogirly. I give her that devoted BFF bullfluff just to keep her guessing and maintain my sharp acting skills.

So move over, Mirren.

Step aside, Streep.

I have my acceptance speech ready.
