A 23 year old cat. A 5 year old fish.

So I have some random thoughts I want to spout off about this morning regarding my cat.....

How is it possible that this 23 year old 4.5 lb feline can be such a dominating factor in my life? I'm EXHAUSTED today and it's only 7:25 am on Tuesday morning. How is this possible you ask? Because Olivia has been keeping me up all night over her food obsession..... Half & Half and/or Reddi Whip !

It's interesting how animals, like people get so fixated on eating. What is that all about? I'm guessing it's because we use food as a reward for ourselves and sometimes our pets. Even my goldfish 'Jeter' is obsessed with food. I feed him 3 different kinds of fish food AND Organic peas. Have you ever seen a manipulating goldfish???? Well if you haven't, come on over and witness the spectacle in my kitchen. (One day remind me to tell you about George...rest his little soul)

So anyhoo.... I guess slurping down some more coffee will get me through the first part of my day.....later I will find a nap!

You are so right, my cats sit around the bed in the a.m. and stare at me. As soon n as I get up they run to the top of the steps and if I am only up to use the bathroom I feel bad so sometimes I will just hold it in. But when I do go down, I get trampled over. Than the meowing doesn't stop till the food hits the bowl. Five minutes later they are sitting on my bed posts liking themselves clean. However gross, I love them :)))

Maybe your exhausted cause it was 7:25 a.m..
