Still life with cats

[nilchance]

This is how this morning went:

Cat: *makes gaggy hairball noises*

Me: *gets butter*

Cat: *looks happy to see me*

Me: *offers butter*

Cat: *snuffles butter in hopeful manner*

Me: *tries to give butter*

Cat: *is OMG suddenly mortally offended by the butter*

Me: *tries to smudge butter on nose as directed by MIL*

Cat: *tries to flee scene*

Me: *scruffs cat and puts butter on nose*

Cat: *wanders around for next twenty minutes wearing butter, giving me the stink eye, until other cat helpfully licks butter off for her*

Me: *gets butter again, scruffs cat, puts butter on paw*

Cat: *flicks butter deliberately onto my cleavage*

Me: ARGH. *deposits butter on other paw*

Cat: *hides under couch with other cat, licks paw, then cleans self and ingests more hair for more hairballs*

Sigh.

ain't cats grand? Mine keeps making those same noises, but he hates butter with the burning passion of a thousand suns, so not even to tease him could I do that.

Their indignation is so adorable, though, like, about 25% as it as annoying!

Heee, definitely. I love the pissy kitty face.
