Postcards from the Cats - Day 8

Dear Glogirly,

The cat sitter is doing a pretty good job. Even though she's still keeping the food locked up, she's got a fiancé guy with a great lap. The cat sitter says I like him because he's a fishmonger. I don't know what that is, but he smells REALLY good and his fingers taste like tuna. And salmon. 

The Boss doesn't think the cat sitter can tell time though on account of we didn't get our 5 o'clock dinner until 5:07pm yesterday. 

Are you coming home soon? The Boss is antsy.

Love,
Waffles



KATIE:  Antsy??? Did you see the clock, Waffles? Dinner is LATE. A whole seven minutes late. We're going to starve. 


WAFFLES:  What should we do, Boss?

KATIE: Well you could start by pacing back and forth. 

WAFFLES:  Does that really work?


KATIE:  It can't hurt. It's not like we can say, "Hey Cat Sitter! Did you forget something? Dinner time was seven, now EIGHT minutes ago." Tick tock, Waffles.


WAFFLES:  I'm on it, Boss. 


WAFFLES:  Is it working?




Counting the Days...

Thanks for visiting us while Glogirly & Gloman are vacationing in Iceland. Our cat sitter is taking great care of us... though the food portions are a bit scant. Nothing a few sad and pleading looks can't take care of though.

We hope you're enjoying our vacation postcards.

We'll be back to our regular programming soon!

    I think your cat sitter should get docked for every minute dinner is late!

    I agree with Summer. That's the only way us humans learn

    A month or so ago when all the British cats were tweeting about #CatsAgainstBrexit or #CatsForBrexit, Parker blogged a short piece on #CatsAgainstLateBrexfast. Although it was sometimes difficult to make her wait for 6:00 when sunrise was at 5:30. (She actually let me sleep until 6:30 one morning this week.)

    Seven minutes late? That's like a gazillion years! She should definitely give you a little extra to make up for the non-punctuality :)

    Hey, smart move, Katie. Ticking and tocking seems to keep a certain pain of a brother busy!

    My heart breaks for you because I know what it is like to have a per sitter. I always wondered if she was really going to come or would she forget one day totally!

    Is there anything more sad than the sight of poor Waffkes ticking and tocking? I agree with Summer too- dock the cat sitter for every minute- no, every 30 seconds. A minute is a really long time to a cat. I hope things are better for you today. How many sleeps til GLOGIRLY comes home?

    The cat sitter should be fired for being late with dinner! Forcing Waffles and Katie to starve like that is totally unacceptable! In seven minutes, they could have become skin and bones! ;D

    You guys wouldn't make it at our house...we don't have regularly scheduled mealtime! Mudpie eats when she's hungry...and not a moment before!

    Abuse! Your meals should not be late! Ever. Maybe the fish guy can slip you some extra tuna or salmon.

    Maybe you should get extra food for each minute your meal is late, Katie and Waffles!
