it's me, Seville the cat.

Oh Peepers...

OH PEEPERS...

PEEPERS!

Hi there Peepers.  It's me.  Me.  Me, Seville the Cat.

MOUSES!

Well OF COURSE I had to point out that it was me.  You know, me.  Me!  Me, as in me, Seville the Cat.  Your not realizin' that it was me when I was callin' out to you, is THE ONLY REASON I CAN FATHOM for your not snappin' to attention when I called out to you in the first place.

MOUSES!

So anyway...

PEEPERS!

Sorry, I thought you were driftin' off there for a second.

Because...

Because you weren't anxiously anticipatin' what I was gonna say.

Well your lack of anxious anticipation was pretty darn obvious to me!

Look Peepers, when I'm about to tell you somethin', I kinda expect you to be sittin' on the edge of your seat, anxiously anticipatin' whatever it is I'm about to say.  And when I say sittin' on the edge of your seat, I mean LITERALLY SITTIN' ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT.  Right on the edge, as if you're about to fall off.

Because!

Because, Peepers, it's about respect, you see.  It's about showin' me, SEVILLE THE CAT, the respect I deserve.

Do I REALLY need to remind you?

Peepers, you needn't think I'm lettin' you off the hook for the other night.  You needn't think that, at all.

MOUSES!

You know.

Yes you do.

OH YES YOU DO.

Peepers, you know exactly what you did the other night.  You know, how you disrespected me, and all?  You know ALL about it, for sure.  You TOTALLY disrespected me.  Me, Seville the Cat!  YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID; AND I KNOW THAT YOU KNOW IT; AND YOU KNOW THAT I KNOW THAT YOU KNOW...

Never mind.

MOUSES!

Well you clipped my claws, that`s what!

And to add insult to injury, before you committed said atrocity, you didn't even ask for permission, or anythin'.

You just grabbed hold of me and started clippin'.

MOUSES!

Now where was I?

Oh yeah.

If you remember, I was TRYIN' to get your attention.

So Peepers...

PEEPERS!

Peepers, you have really got to learn to listen.

What?  What's that?  What's that you're babblin' on about now?

Oh.

That.

Well...

Well to tell you the truth, there actually wasn't ANYTHIN' important I was wantin' to tell you.  I just wanted to see if you were payin' attention, is all.

Think of as a little quiz.  A test, so to speak.

FYI:  A test you happened to fail.

But don't worry, Peepers, we'll be havin' a make-up test tomorrow.

MOUSES!

  8. Well I hope the peep does better on the make-up test... on that subject is that lipstick and such like? Over here they have 're-sit' exams, which I guess is when they fidget in the original MOL

    1. Nope, no lipstick involved. And that's a good thing 'cause GOODNESS KNOWS what she'd do with that. I mean, she's already givin' me manicures. Can you imagine a complete makeover? MOUSES!

  11. Seville, it’s widely known that humans lack the expected listening skills required to cater to our needs. But my human, the Lady Cat, keeps promising she’ll keep trying to do better.
    About the claw clipping, that was very sneaky and you should demand an apology or at least, extra treats!

    1. You heard 'bout our cat grass? I'm super excited. Santa brought us a package of cat grass seeds for Christmas which was like a month ago. The peep, bein' a peep, only planted 'em up, today. I wonder how long it will be before I can start munchin'. PURRS.

  13. Did she clip all your nails at once, Seville?! EEK! My human sneaks a clip in or two when I'm lounging on the table, mostly asleep. She doesn't ask permission either. I think humans need to go to a 'Respect Your Cat 101' course. Tee hee hee. Purrs!

    1. That she did. Clip all my claws all at once, I mean. Can you believe it? When she does Mason's claws, she usually gets just one claw done a day. That's all Mason will allow, you see. Of course, what it means is that by the time the last claw is clipped, it's time to start all over again. MOUSES!

  14. I wonder what is on the makeup test? Is there a study guide? Peeps need those :)

    1. Seriously. And when WE sleep, we get cuter and cuter (thus the name, "beauty sleep"), but when the peeps sleep, they just.. Well.. Sleep. MOUSES!
