Wink Cat vs computer printer: Video


.


If you haven't seen this yet, it is pretty funny.

Our cats don't like the printer either.

But it reminds me of what Tippy has been up to lately with my cell phone. I have one of those ear bud on a cord thingeys for my phone. So I had my phone right here by my monitor and the
little speaker was pointing up -- it is a round gray thing embedded in a black holder.

The microphone is in the lower right:

So now Tippy has a "war" with this thing, if it appears on my
monitor computer desktop. I have had to "hide" my phone from her. Whatever, she thinks this little gray semi-sphere is
I can't imagine. But I think cat owners are familiar with this type of behavior.

Up north, she walks down the path to the shore and notices if one minute stone has moved from the last time she walked there-- and there are a zillion stones!... she is just totally paranoid in some ways!

Wink I have another funny Tippy story from this summer....

every afternoon, after about 4pm, I come in here and do some Ebay searches, maybe have a drink, and play my fave music.

Well I have about 10 favorites. #1 is Celine Dion, Eyes on Me.
from her new album.

Well, Tippy always comes in here with me, and sits next to my monitor.

SSSOOOOO... I took my MP3 player on vacation. One late night I set it up with ear plugs and all in bed, and keyed in my faves. (this is a nice private thing and doesn't bother hubby).

Next thing I know, Tippy has appeared next to my head, and is giving me the strangest look...really strange. It occurred to me she could hear this music from way across the room?
So I took one ear bud out, and held it up to her.... She was just priceless...listening and then looking at ME! DUH? "The MUSIC from HOME up there in some new novel way"? We still laugh about this one!

The other two cats could care less. But they don't show an interest in music at all!

Default All I can say is GOOD GUARD CAT!!!!!

Protecting me from the evil, person [and cat] eating printer!
Mighty BEAST! Excellent!

Mrs D? This and your cat's tales remind me of this cat classic book:

.

The Silent Miaow....I do declare that every single cat who has ever owned me has gotten this book off the shelf and read it! They would, after a couple of months, do things cats do not normally do. Such as help with the sewing from behind the machine on the table...thus playing with either the thread arm or the bobbin - but only when trying to sew tricky things? Or, Walking over the keyboards at key typing times, or, 'helping' you get all your pills out for the day...well, you get the drift. Or, somehow changing channels on the remote control when you were happily dozing off-only to wake up to super raucous.

As for your ear buds? Well, think about it..Makes perfect sense from a cats' perspective ...in hindsight, doesn't it?

Creatures are here to help keep us grounded at times. I believe they succeed immensely! Hugs to all -
