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 -
