Mancat Monday: Lerning the Ropes
A-D-D Kitten isn't so bad. When he's not running amuck he's a promising little fellow. We've gotten to know each other a little better this weekend. I was able to explain a few things to him and he seemed an eager pyoopull. "The lady person with the food is mommy" I stared. "As long as yoo use the litterbocks yoo can git away with innything. The man person with the hairy face is daddy. When he snaps his fingers it meens yoo are in trubble. Run. Temptayshun Time is when mommy puts klose on in the morning so don't be late or Tenny will eet them all. "
Spencer wantid to know bout the vishus deer. Seems he made it over to Skeezy's page and red a little about vishus deer. But he diddint know the hole story.
"Always be reddy and alert to the vishus deer thret", I purred. "Thay all want to eet yoo. Yoo more than me becuz yoo is tender, yung and joosy".
I suddenly reealized whut a favor this littel guy had done for me. With Spencer beeing the yungest cat heer that makes me the leest tender, the leest yung and the leest joosy. He diddint need to know that but he did need to know the trooth.
I continyood, "Thay blind yoo with lazer beem eyes and thats when thay skewer yoo with thare horns and eet yoo. Never trust them no madder whut thay say and if the mommy lady person brings one home it is becuz she is under an evil spell." His eyes groo big and I kood tell he wuz gittin skairt.
I tried to reasshure him, "I haff nefur seen a reel one. Jes one made of sticks with Krissmiss lites and a hollow inside". Still he wuz pretty worried and had sum trubble getting a nap on. Felt bad so I let him sleep on the bottom bunk.
Maybe I tole him too much too soon. He wuz so skairt about the story I let him sleep on the lower bunk. And I promist him we kood git sum of Rocky
When he woke up latur I watched as he played with the tunnul and turboskratcher. He fownd a big rat in the toybocks and I wuz impresst the way he handeld it. For a skrawny kittin he kood throw it good. I sware the rat is as big as his hed.
I tried to let him know it wuz okay if he lickt my hed. He diddint but I think it's cuz he diddint know whut I wuz saying.
Thats rite, I wuz gonna let him lick my hed. Yoo know whut that meens.
He can stay.
Spencer is so lucky to have a super smart ManCat like you to teach him things and to protect him from Vishus Deer and other skeery things. Licks on the head...yippeee we're glad he can stay!

Mr Echo, you are doing a great job of helping Spencer to feel at home, although maybe he is a bit young yet for scary bedtime stories about vishus deer. I can see you are warming to him!

Don’t you wonder what he was thinking? I think he was channeling Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver, “You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? Then who the h*** else are you talkin’ to? You talkin’ to me? Well I’m the only one here. Who the f*** do you think you’re talking to?” This is a great picture!
