Jazzcat!

I told Sirrahbed this already and since hubby thinks I have no shame I figure I'll share it with everyone. We have a litter box set up in the garage for Ripley when he wants to potty alone. It's kind of his bachelor pad when he needs to get away from all the younger brats. Anyway, after a few noisey scares he is now afraid to go out there by himself and wants me to go with him.

I took him out the other tonight but just as he got in the box some thunder rumbled in the distance. Ripley is terrified of thunder (and just about everything else) so he got upset and wanted back inside. I knew he needed to go badly so I began singing to cover up the thunder. There I was standing in the middle of the garage singing "Moon River" to Ripley as he peed in the litterbox.

Why Moon River? I heard it on the TV as I walked through the house on the way out to the garage. I don't know all the words so I made some up about Ripley to the tune.

Now that it works I go out with him daily and my latest song is "Just A Gigalo" - the David Lee Roth version. Today Ripley meowed at me as to say get some new material or maybe it was do I take requests.

Only you guys will understand.
