Occupation Means Nine Tenths of Possession

HIYA! SAVANNAH HERE!!

All I can say is that after the Battle Over Mom L’s Body last night, she will probably never let Dad P leave the house again at night.

Let me explain. You see, after the humans eat their dinner, then we all gather in the living room for TV time and whatnot. I get on the couch with Mom L. That is MY space as is Mom L MY human body to cuddle with. Dad P sits in his recliner chair with the foot stool up and The Kid Sage (TKS) get on a fleece blankie next to his body and he is HER human body to cuddle with.

The problem, as I am certain you can already see, is that we each have our OWN human body for snuggling and getting pets and attention at night. When there is one less human body, well then there  is a bit of a vacuum when it comes to snuggle space.

Dad P went to one of his community volunteer thingies last night so I had Mom L all to myself. She just needed to focus on ME, ME, ME. Ya might wanna know that I hide my thoughts inside the photo so you have to hover your schmousie over the photos to view what I am thinking.

So the night was shaping up just fine for me. But poor little TKS was left all alone, no human body to call her own and just her pitiful warm fleece blankie to snuggle with.

Where is my Dad P?

Where is my Dad P?

oh yeah, and I have to offer some apologies cuz all Mom L and I had to capture this whole fiasco of a battle was the smartie phone camera.

Moving along, I turned my back to rest my eyes and next time I look over at Mom L, guess what I see?

Oh Cat! I so hope Savvy doesn't notice me snuggled next to Mom L's leg.

Oh Cat! I so hope Savvy doesn’t notice me snuggled next to Mom L’s leg.

Yep, you are so right. TKS had slithered up on the opposite side of Mom L to get some snugglin’ and human body contact.

heh—heh—heh Bet Savvy doesn't know I am here

heh—heh—heh Bet Savvy doesn’t know I am here

As if I wouldn’t NOTICE her hugging my human! This was going to be the age old Possession Is Nine Tenths of The Law battle.

AHA! Caught you TKS! Stealing Mom L from me!

AHA! Caught you TKS! Stealing Mom L from me!

I simple could not believe what I was seeing. I had to take a moment and step away just to collect my thoughts about what the heck I was gonna do about this situation.

Seriously Mom L? Are you really gonna let her stay there?!

Seriously Mom L? Are you really gonna let her stay there?!

Once Mom L saw the look on my face, she took action and placed a 911 call to Dad P and advised him to step it up getting home or else he’d be on litter box duty forever! (not that he isn’t the primary scooper already).

And now you may be wondering who did get nine tenths of possession and claim Mom L’s body as their very own???

Feline Exploration—One

HIYA!  SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I did so many things in about 30 minutes on Monday, I asked Mom L to split them all up into individual posts. I am so proud of myself for moving the target for being courageous a notch or two higher.

Now this won’t seem like much to most cats, but for me, a really, really big deal.

Part One is about a wonderful bench Mom L has in her office space. We have lived here for almost nine months and I have never, not ever, once jumped up on the bench. TKS does it all the time. Because I like to be close  to Mom L, and she spends so much time in this space taking care of administration of my blog, I decided to try out this bench.

What a soft cushion and pillow

What a soft cushion and pillow

Of course, she whipped out that camera faster than she can even walk! Never once thinking she would disturb my slumber.

"GOTCHA MOM L"

“GOTCHA MOM L”

I caught her in the act. Nonetheless, I am happy to share the first step in my Feline Exploration with all of you, my readers. Let me just say that I kept Mom L’s camera busy on Monday!

Wrinkle Free Cat Dryer

HIYA! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I, HRH Savannah, would never ever not even once go hop into a human clothes dryer, no matter how warm. But my caution seems to cause TKS to do one of those “I dare you—even DOUBLE dare you” taunts.

The result—she is now a wrinkle free puddy-tat!

NICE! Very warm—I like it so far

NICE! Very warm—I like it so far

Thankfully TKS did a bit of checking about what the heck was going on with this new “Cat Warming Machine” she just discovered.

Nice view on this side—liking it so far

Nice view on this side—liking it so far

She at least has a NANOSECOND of caution built into her—though not nearly enough to help her at this point.

And another lovely view on this side—who kept this secret Cat Warming Machine from me??!!

Another view on this side—who kept this Cat Warming Machine from me??!!

At the last second, TKS begins to question her lack of caution about exploring the humans’ mechanical contraptions. And before you ask, I did not for one nanosecond want to prevent my precocious precious TKS from having this very special “AHA!!” moment.

Saavvvyyy??!!! What does "ON" mean????

Saavvvyyy??!!! What does “ON” mean????
