I have NEVER gotten seriously upset at one of my cats - until just now!! :eek: :mad:
I'm in the computer room checking my email and Tito decides he wants dinner NOW. He comes in and loves all over me. I pet him, but I don't get up to feed him. (His dinnertime is technically at 7:00 pm.) Then he gets up on the computer desk and stands in front of the monitor and won't move. He was completely blocking my view. I pick him up and put him on the floor. He goes and LAYS in the litterbox in the corner. I have never seen him do that before! :eek: So I ignore him. He comes out and jumps back up on my computer desk - and LAYS ON MY KEYBOARD!!!!!!!!! :mad:
So now I'm getting irritated. I have kitty litter (from his paws and belly) in my keyboard, and windows are popping up all over the place and my cursor is going crazy. The computer tower starts beeping. Finally I manage to get him off the keyboard, and you know what he does? He goes underneath the desk and chews on the cords to the computer!! I don't mean nibbling either, he was CHEWING HARD! :eek: :mad: He was all the way behind the desk, where I couldn't reach him. So I'm hissing at him, clapping my hands at him, saying "NO!" loudly - do you think he cared?
Finally I got up like I was leaving the room - I knew he'd think I was going to the kitchen. He made a mad dash for his bowl, and I slammed the door behind him. He acts like he hasn't been fed in years - I fed him his breakfast this morning AND gave him a Turkey Temptation when I got home no less than an hour ago!!!
I know I am seriously sounding mad right now, and I'll calm down in a few...but for real, he wakes me up EVERY MORNING at 6:00 AM DEMANDING to be fed, and I give in. I spoil him rotten and love on him and he repays me by trying to destroy my computer. Right now he's crying outside the door to the computer room and trying to get in by throwing his weight against the door (at least that's what it sounds like). :rolleyes: I'm ignoring him until 7:00 PM sharp.
Attached is some evidence!!
