Cat Crazies

Fido is being a major butthole. He's got a major case of the cat crazies -- running into the room, jumping up on my swivel desk chair (spinning does not make him calmer...), then pouncing on the printer.

He loves the printer.

It's not one of those "ohh a warm spot" things, since I've kept it turned off. It's not even a good perch -- way off in the corner and half-behind a chair.

I put an upside-down egg carton on to, hoping to discourage him. He just steps around it -- and will hit the power key -- and often the 'copy' key too. This means he can check out the cool sounds coming out and the paper moving. Maybe I'll put something over the controls...

When he jumps off, he steps on the (now sagging) paper tray.

Why dosen't he sleep like cats are supposed to?

  1. Cats like things that move. If you put something that doesn't move right in front of it, they don't like it as much. The printer may move any second now. My cat knows this, too.

  2. It could be worse. Our cat Dingo broke into the bedroom earlier today and pilfered Pene's big ball of yarn -- and he proceeded to drag it through several rooms and down the stairs into the kitchen before he was caught.

    It took Pene quite a while to scoop up the whole ball of yarn and put it back together.
