The cat left a gift

November 14, 2007

The other day, we were out with my sister-in-law doing fun stuff. When we returned home, our cat had left a little pile of poop in my sister-in-law’s guest bed. At first we thought he was protesting (he hasn’t done a protest poop in six years, but we figured it might have been time again), but we didn’t know what he was protesting… we fed him. We cuddled him. Everything seemed good.

Then, we realized the closet where we kept his litter had its door closed completely. If the closet door is mostly closed, he can still fidget it open with his paw, but if it’s closed completely, he can’t get in. Then we felt really bad and gave him a treat for having to put up with his bathroom door being closed. We pictured him whimpering pitifully in front of his bathroom door (Why won’t it open? It usually opens. I need to poop!).

Well, now we’ve taped the door so that it can never close completely. Our poor kitty. (Don’t worry—we washed the sheet after throwing out the poop pile.)

    Hi

    I am REALLY sorry to use this form, but I have found no other way to contact you about the site http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/index.php, where I have seen a couple of bugs in the http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/installing#partitioning section. A couple of essential images are missing.

    Sorry, but as I said, I could not find any other way to contact you

    I’m also sorry to use this form. When I read this a week ago I thought you, as an english teacher familiar with the CLI, would find it interesting:

    I was going to wait for a Linux or CLI related post, but since you haven’t posted anything about Linux in a long time, I figure it would be better to just mention it before I forget.

    Ok, since no one can seem to post anything relevant to his post, I will :)
    That was absolutely funny!
