    "Dear Staff, I am writting this to ensure that you know what your duties are!"

  5. First of all, staff is to awake just before me. It is rediculous that I should have to wake you. You are not to awake too much earlier than me, as I do not want my sleep disturbed. I should not have to wait for my breakfast; it should be set down just as I am approaching my placemat. Clean, fresh water is required at all times. If I spit a crunchy in it, it gets soggy and the water tastes funny. You should anticipate this and be ready with fresh water.
    The litter box is to be completely clean at all times. You clean those things that you use each time, so this is not an unreasonable request.
    Keep quiet - we cats have very sensitive ears. I should not have to tell you this.
    You humans are kinda slow, so just digest this and I will issue further instructions later as to handle the rest of the day.

  7. You know, Hammo, you are so right. Especially with someone at my beck and call to fix the food, clean the house, yup, I could handle that all right. Oh, to be a cat.

  9. Attention staff: (I use that term loosely because so often I catch you doing non-work related things around the house like talking with other humans, doing "paperwork", whatever that is, and staring at that bright, annoying thing you call a "TV".)
    It is now lunchtime, and all you do is give me a few measly pieces of lunchmeat while you stuff your face with almost the whole thing! Would it kill you to skip the bread and put the lunchmeat where I can have it? (Sheesh, humans are slow!) I would like to go out. I would like to come in. Why can't you handle being at the door when I require you to open it? I can see the bottom of the crunchies dish; that means it's as good as empty. Put a head on it NOW!!! There's kitty litter on the rug that I like to sleep on, remove it promptly. Don't vacuum, stupid human! You know that hurts my ears and I'm afraid of it. I catch those teeny mice you seem so afraid of and you don't see me complaining.
    Later in the day it will be dinnertime. I have to pester you for it at least an hour before you finally get around to tending to this job. You need to work on being more prompt about this; you never have to wait for me to show up for dinner.
    Fill the birdfeeder. How can you expect me to get through the day when you leave me alone with no means to get outside. The least you could do is give me something to look at - certainly not an unreasonable request.
    Do not put one of those cute kitty beds in place of the piece of cardboard I have been sleeping on. If I didn't like it, I wouldn't sleep there. If you like the kitty bed so much, you sleep in it!
    In short, you have several things that you need to improve on. It's called a personal improvement plan (PIP) and I (and that other cat you insisted on getting) expect most can be rectified easily. I'm sure there are more things that you are not doing up to par, but I will save them for your next evaluation.
    In spite of all this, I know that your intentions are good and your heart is in the right place, so please know that I Love You!
    Respectively,
    The Cats

  13. Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!..Our cats have surely got us all trained very well. Once (during a short intrusion of mouses) my cat raced me to the door with a long wriggly tail protruding from his face and he told me, "shmiuxzzz shmiuxzz" which meant open door open door...and Whoosh . The look on his face was something akin to Geesh..Do I have to do everything around here?! He was very busy that day!
