I'm sorry, okay? I'M SORRY!
I said I was sorry, and I meant it.
Sorta. Kinda. Mostly, I suppose.
*crosses claws and hides them behind his back*
Won't you PLEASE come back? Please? PLEASE? PUH-LEEEEASE?
What if I were to uh...
Umm...
Admit I was wrong?
No, that won't do. Everyone knows that I, Seville the Cat, am NEVER wrong.
MOUSES!
Well, what if I were to offer you not only some of my kibble, if you were to return, but also some of the fanciest of the feasts? Maybe even topped with the nip? Oohhh... And a dash of cream, and...
*runs to fridge to make sure there's cream to spare*
Yeah, I can do a dash of cream, as long as it's the teeniest tiniest dash you ever did see.
Like as in a drop.
MOUSES!
And what if I were to,,,,
OH FOR MOUSIN' OUT LOUD. I'm not willin' to beg, Mother Nature. Either you come back here with spring in tow, or you don't, BUT I'M NOT WILLIN' TO BEG. If you wanna behave like a spoilt rotten little kid, well I guess there's not much I can do about it. I'm sittin' here with my claws crossed behind my back, offerin' you an olive branch, of sorts, with my extended pa...
Nope, my paws are behind my back so I can't really do that.
With my tail.
MOUSES!
Look here, Mother Nature, if you won't do it for me, do it for the kids... I mean, peeps. That storm you blew in on Sunday night was a doozie, for sure. Those winds whipped through the trees and blew Peepers' little plant dome things all away. She found one but Monday afternoon, the kiddies across the street appeared with the other. That's right, all your huffin' and puffin' had blown it right out of the yard!
Obviously...
Obviously you were havin' a temper tantrum.
AND IF YOU THINK YOU CAN OUT TEMPER TANTRUM ME...
YOU'VE GOT ANOTHER THINK COMIN', FOR SURE.
MOUSES!
*heads into the house, prepared to eat copious amounts of cheese*
I'LL GAS THE WHOLE PLACE OUT!
MOUSES!
"Oh Seville..."
Yes, Peepers? You called?
"I thought you would want to know, the weatherman says it's going to be 16C this afternoon and partly sunny."
You mean like as in spring?
"Looks like it, yes."
Oh my mouses! OH MY MOUSES! MOTHER NATURE IS COMIN' BACK WITH SPRING WEATHER, AFTER ALL!
Just goes to show you, my sweet and ever-so-charming PURRsonality is irresistible, for sure.
MOUSES!
Remember to mask up, too.
Seville, Spring is a real rollercoaster ride!
ReplyDeleteGood negotiating, Sivvers! We are glad Mother Nature saw the wisdom of your words. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your sincere apology will do the trick Seville!
ReplyDeleteI gather Mother Nature is having a temperature tantrum.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely worked a charm there, Seville. But how will you keep MN there once she arrives???
ReplyDeleteToodle pips and Purrs
ERin
Mother Nature obviously could not resist you, Seville.
ReplyDeleteGood try, but Mother Nature is definitely in a snit.
ReplyDeleteHey Seville, Spring is ping-ponging all over the shop here at the moment, she needs to sort herself out stat! MOL
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter ❤❤❤
