As I wrote last week, the holiday decorations have been ignored by the cats for the most part. But then I added these little trees to the display, and a certain tortie can't keep her paws off of them.
I get it. They are pretty irresistible. It wouldn't take much to topple those over and those colors are yummy.
They are within paw's reach and RIGHT next to her favorite napping spot in front of the furnace vent.
But she's been instructed to leave those alone.
And though she tries very hard to exercise a little self-control.
She is a cat, and she can't.
"I'm trying to be good. Really, I am trying!"
"Mommy, why are you tempting me?!"
ReplyDeleteNo fair tempting the tortie! I'm sure Santa Claus will be sympathetic to Wylla's plight.
Delete"She's been instructed..."
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahahaha
Or as I tell people...tiny little brains. No moral sense.
That is a challenge, Wylla. My girl would've brushed her teeth with those days ago.

Oh Dear Wylla. I am Coco. My mom was determined to place a birdie ornament near the bottom of our tree. What was I to do? It has a HUGE and fluffy feather tail. Um, well at least it used to have a huge and fluffy tail. Whee!
ReplyDeleteThe rules for naughty and nice only applies to HUMANS! Kitties are always innocent!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of one of my favorite Breaking Cat News panels... http://www.breakingcatnews.com/comic/puckys-purrfect-christmas-tips-part-two/
ReplyDeleteThose trees are so cute. Poor Wylla, I know how you feel. You are such a good girl:)

Ahem...Mom...cats and tiny trees are meant to mix it up. Otherwise why put tiny trees near my best sleeping spot? Why not put them near Charlene's spot? Answer?
ReplyDeleteIn Wylla's defense, they *are* in her colors. :-)
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing!
DeletePoor Wylla. It's so hard to be good...
Ha - where is the shot with the trees toppled over on the floor!? Our cats are in full fledged naughty mode this week!
ReplyDeleteI think she should get one just for her. . .
ReplyDelete"Wylla. Please do not touch the trees." "I'm not touching them, Mama. I am only sniffing them."
ReplyDeleteMaybe she is remembering this:

Oh yes, Wylla and her wee tree! It must be just for her!
DeleteWylla is the best!
ReplyDeleteOh, poor Wylla! Don't worry, girl, it's a short holiday season.
ReplyDeleteMy dear departed Toby used to scoop all the figures out of the Nativity set and cram his big striped butt into the little stable. Baby Jesus was glued back together SO many times.
You can see the torment in her poor little soul!
ReplyDeleteI MUST TOUCH THE TREES!
I am getting such a kick out of Wylla's Dialated Pupils of Chaos.:)
