House Rules

Hi, everyone ... it's me, Finn.


And around our house, we have rules that Mom gives us to follow - SHE says mostly for our own safety.  One of them is that I'm not supposed to get on top of the china cabinet in the dining room because she's afraid I'll break off one of my legs jumping down.  I don't like that rule very much because I really like it up there, especially because neither of the other two cat kids can get up there, but *I* can because like a certain other small black cat made famous by T.S. Eliot and Andrew Lloyd Webber, I can "creep through the tiniest crack and walk on the narrowest rail."  


So, Mom, I love you ... but when it comes to this one rule, I'm sorry, but ...





I am just going to have to pretend I didn't hear you.  (And if you want, YOU can just pretend that you don't SEE me!  Sound fair?  I thought so!)

Rules are made to be broken. :)

Might as well do it while you can, Finn. Some day gravity will take hold and you won't be able to jump as high anymore...oh, wait, that's me.

Maybe she won't see you up there, Finn. Do be careful.

Hi Y'all,

Do y'all have a cat perch where you can look out the window? Wouldn't it be nicer to perch there?

Tell your mom that when you're older you won't be able to get up there anyway, so she'll just have to give you some time. :)

Y'all come by now,

P.S. sorry, but the comments that don't pop up won't let me comment with my blogspot blog, so I'm using my old livejournal. You'll find a link to blogspot in the description.

Hi, Finn! As far as I know, cats are supposed to get up on top of things! The higher the better!

Oh Finn, we're pretty sure the house rules are only guidelines. That means you don't HAVE to follow them! At least that's how we understand it...

You reminds me of the youngest daughter's cat, Maurice-- he loves the top of the refrigerator... tell your Momma not to worry, you won't break anything!!
