(Not sure if that's the opposite of the intended effect. Hmmm.) My mister is deathly allergic to cats, so I had to become a dog person as quickly as possible.amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08588638048591062737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780795730939193102.post-41194996839181671562010-02-12T10:47:59.335-06:002010-02-12T10:47:59.335-06:00@Nicole - That is the PERFECT way to describe my c...@Nicole - That is the PERFECT way to describe my cat. She is mostly anger, mixed with a tiny bit of furry goodness.<br /><br />@TipsyTexan - "Agnes." :) I love that a cat was named "Agnes." That is all.<br /><br />@Amanda - Claudia thanks you! I know, she has a lot of boy cat admirers because she is so pretty....and then kicks their ass and they have to hobble away.<br /><br />@Hipstercrite - (Confession...I AM scared of dogs...) Dude. Thanks for the house compliments. She's a REALLY old Victorian in Hyde Park, but we love her. <br /><br />@Jon - Haha Jon, I was looking at old pictures the other day, and found the one of the ballerina chihuahua, standing next to the PISSED cowboy chihuahua...the one that attacked your feet. :) Good memory.<br /><br />@Sasha - Thanks woman. :)<br /><br />@Beth - YAY! I totally will! Coming from a designery craft person...that is a big compliment, about my house.<br /><br />@Michelle - Haha Michelle! You've got Claudia's voice DOWN. Whenever we "talk like Claudia," it's always a hoodrat, tough girl from the wrong side of the tracks kind of voice...the kind that will totally knife you if you cross her. PS. Your cat does sound weird. Maybe she and Claudia are related; Claudia likes to lick the bathtub after we shower in it (!!)<br /><br />@Caleb - You are now a SOCIAL MEDIA NINJA! Stand back internets!!<br /><br />@Frank - Right? LOLCATS can just sit down; we're clearly cornering the market on awesome cat photographs.<br /><br />@Laura - Well, we'll try it anyway. Thank you for suggestion.<br /><br />@Laura R - Haha, Laura!! You cracked me up just now. My husband ALSO claims he is the cat whisperer. Men, huh! Think they know EEEVERYTHING (but PS, that trick does sound convincing. I like how he phrases it in terms of "destroying their will." Serious.)<br /><br />@Anonymous - Are you my Dad? And is the Persian you're referring to Philamina? Because that cat IS an idiot. She's really, really, really pretty though. :) <br /><br />And if you aren't my Dad Anonymous...please pardon!Austin Eavesdropperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09089689495366272459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780795730939193102.post-45266513401258180032010-02-11T20:26:24.586-06:002010-02-11T20:26:24.586-06:00One of our Persians is an idiot.

Also, she doesn't have a voice, or much of one. She looks up at us, opens her snub face, and .... nothing. Sometimes a squeak, but mostly nothing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780795730939193102.post-59813137744958454562010-02-11T20:20:21.384-06:002010-02-11T20:20:21.384-06:00My husbot claims he's the Cat Whisperer (it...My husbot claims he's the Cat Whisperer (it's probably true), and says that first you must destroy their will with TUNA, and then if things still get out of hand, you must get yourself a SPRAY BOTTLE filled with COLD WATER and spray at the offending actions.

She's all like "Yeah motherfucker, and next I'll do it to YOUR FACE!". <br /><br />One of our cats is incredibly calm and the other one is kind of a spaz that likes to play rough. We found her at two weeks so my theory is that she plays rough 'cuz she never had other kitties to teach her any better! The only time she wants to snuggle is when I'm going to the bathroom, she sits at the door and waits for me to come out. Yeah. She's a weirdo, but I love her.

Although this is a fate that I would never wish upon an animal, I think that it has potentially reduced our medical bills by at least four figures. Because girlfriend is CRAZEE. She loves to snuggle with us at night, as long as nobody moves. If the snuggle position shifts, "RRRREEOOWW!!" A growl and a swat--and potential bloodbath.
