Fister being spoiled ... nah, he would’t agree! Even though I take my tired feet down AND move the keyboard so there's space for him under "his" lamp. Then, when I leave the computer for half an hour, do I leave the lamp on for him?? Oh yes ... even though I'm trying to save on electricity.

Talking of water, what do I do if he runs to the bathroom? Will I be able to guess why he does that? Oh yes! He needs the tap turned on - and I have to stand there waiting while he’s drinking. Does he have water elsewhere? He has plenty! A glass in the bedroom, one in the windowsill, and his drinkwell that is filled with fresh water to the brim every day.

When he decides it may be a good time for running down the kitchen staircase and having a little stroll outside, do I stand there holding the door for him - sometimes for more than 5 min. because he can’t make up his mind whether he wants to go out or not. Oh yes .... and when he does want to go out, I have had the "pleasure" of going down to get him at 4AM in the morning!

Do I decide when it’s bedtime? Oh no! He tells me when, and if I don’t get it, he’ll race around, making quite sure I understand, in a loud tone of MIAWWW!! Ok then, do I get my pillow for myself? No way!! He’s there before I even put my head down. It’s cosy though.

These are just a few examples, but he’s not spoiled in the slightest!!
