"Dogs come when they're called; cats take a message and get back to you later. "

This is our cat, Nacho. We sometimes refer to her as Nacho Cheese, The Cheese, or just Cheese. She responds to all the names.
She’s slightly neurotic. Is terrified of the vacuum. And takes a dump outside the litter box when you've taken too long to clean it out. To demonstrate her disapproval. And show you who's boss.
She spends about 90 percent of her day doing this:
And the rest of the time complaining about this:
She literally nags me to death if there is a hole in the bowl. Because a hole means no food. Which means starvation.
Even our pets have first world problems, don't they?
Below is a funny video to end the week with. It describes my cats completely. For those who haven’t seen it, do so. For those who have, it’s worth another look.
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone! And try not to complain about little things, okay?
So funny about the hole. Back when I was a prep cook we made a round iron skillet brownie, that went on the dessert bar. The customers were the same way, if there was a hole in the middle, they stopped taking brownie.
ReplyDeleteSo weird.
I know, right? There must be some strange psychology to that. I don't really care. Especially if it's something I really like. I'll scrape the sides if necessary! Hahaha...
DeleteOh yeah, it's weird. The girls would bring back the brownie and the kitchens would eat them. Such a silly thing, I dunno. Just weird.
DeleteOMG ! if they only realized how good they have it lol We have so many feral cats down here it is sickening ! Thanks for sharing , Have a good day !
ReplyDeleteI know! They are spoiled rotten. If they were strays, they'd be licking the bowls!
Deletemy three cats have just sworn to me that it's all true, and I have to change my behaviour. Bummer!
ReplyDeleteThey know best, Lorraine! They rule us :)
DeleteLove the names. Ha.
ReplyDeleteWe gotta have some fun!
DeleteDo you sing "Nacho Nacho Cat" to her? (To the tune of that old Village People hit "Macho Macho Man" of course). I used to sing the "Meow Mix Song" to HRH all the time. She loved it! Or at least tolerated it, as cats do.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Yes! Yes, I do! And I also sing "You are my cheese puff, my only cheese puff" (to the tune of "You are my sunshine"). Along with other wacky songs/sayings/. It's no wonder our cats have turned out so weird and neurotic!
DeleteI am getting so attached to my sister's cat, so cute! I can understand your attachment.
ReplyDeleteWe have two, and I adore them both. They were both adopted from the local humane society, which makes them that much more special.
DeleteNeat to meat Nacho! It is funny how some cats don't like to see the bottom of their bowl/ eat around the edges! Our indoor cat is pretty picky, but our 2 outdoor cats eat just about everything!
ReplyDeleteCats are funny like that; each one with its own personality. Each one with individual quirks!
DeleteCute kitty! Yeah cats think they rule over we humans.
ReplyDeleteI think they actually do! LOL...
DeleteHi human, Martha,
ReplyDeleteWhen Nacho can be bothered to crap in the kitty litter tray, have you noticed the end result looks like Ferrero Rocher?
Hey Nacho! Here, kitty, kitty, kitty......
Pawsitive wishes,
Penny :)
Hahahaha! I've never paid attention but I'll have to check next time. And Ferrero Rocher will never look the same to me again! LOL...
DeleteNacho is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAnd as for the 'sad cat diary' ... hahaha! Positively made my day! Oh, and so true of the feline psyche. Such drama queens :)
Hahahaha! Yes, definitely drama queens. And Nacho is totally one. But she's also sweet and utterly adorable. We love her, quirks and all!
DeleteOur dog had always been a inside dog. We had to tie her outside once for a long time. She was so mad when she came back. When we called her name, she turned her head like a snooty human.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Love that. Showing her disapproval!
DeleteFunny stuff. I'd argue in response to the quote that cats have their secretaries call you back later.
ReplyDeleteHope you're enjoying the weekend, Martha. xo
Yes, of course, Robyn! They certainly wouldn't do the work personally :) Thanks for stopping by. I hope you are enjoying a beautiful weekend.
DeleteI've written a long comment and I'm not sure where it has gone. Ugh, anyway, let me just say that I enjoyed the video. I can so imagine our own cats here saying the same hehehe. Your Nacho has got lovely fur. So black and shiny.
ReplyDeleteSometimes blogger does that...just eats up a whole comment! Very frustrating.
DeleteNacho is a real beauty. And her fur is truly shiny and beautiful. She's in good health.
aw ... the black kitty looks just like ours .. ol Boop ... trying to get caught up, Martha ....LOVE the video ~ gonna steal! ;)
ReplyDeleteSteal away, Carolyn! It's a fun video that's worth sharing.
