Attempting a spring cleaning I moved some stuff around...DVDs, books and some cat toys....
I jumped into bed and the Edster jumped up onto his nightly perch. I look over and am treated to a crouching cat rear.
A few seconds later a face appears above a plastic bag of catnip.
A box containing two bags of nip was placed next to the tiger's lair!!!!
Oh,oh........After a few seconds of vicious head shaking, something I had never seen the Zen Master do before, the bag shoots across the room, behind the chair.
Hmmmmmmm, that was funny.
At six o'clock this morning the second bag of catnip is being stalked..........I awaken to the soft cries of a cat attempting to move into position to grab the second bag...
Slowly, as only a student of the martial arts could, he steps onto the box with the DVDs, sending them to the floor in a clatter.
Zen Master Ed lands on his feet, looking at me...
Sensei? A little help here?
I get up, look down and face up is the movie Crouching Tiger.....
I toss him the second bag, pick up the movies and crawl back into bed, listening to the sounds of a plastic bag, being punctured by tiny Ninja teeth.....
Crinkle crinkle crinkle..crinkle crinkle crinkle.....
Twenty minutes later the cries of a nipped out cat awaken me from my slumber.
Since a cat cannot be calibrated to the atomic clock in Colorado, I guess it's about every five minutes....
When the REAL ALARM clock goes off I feel refreshed and ready to take on the day.
I have now realized that hiding the catnip from the cat is not the way things should be....
There should be a yin to the yang, a balance between the elements, a state of Zen needs to be attained-
Cat nip should not be doled out in small portions..
GIVE THE WHOLE FREAKING BAG TO THE CAT-
That way you don't have to pick up DVDs, Listen to plastic bags and put up with nipped out crying cats so early in the morning.
I wonder if Confucious had cats?
