I'm a cat. I live with another slightly bigger cat. We own this place. The tall ones do brush us and feed us and stuff, but it's because they have to--how can we be as perfect as we are otherwise? Yes, with our highly developed species, it does come naturally and we really don't need them. Then they go and invent sealed containers and ziplocking seams, drat. Now, you know I have those 2 extra thumbs on each hand. Chi is, well, I guess you'd call her "normal" (though I call her other stuff like "Let's play" and "Hey, c'mere." But--why don't cat moms teach us to open stuff before they send us into this world to find the right attendants?
Anyway, I'm rambling, which is making me need my early morning nap even earlier. I noticed last night the lady wasn't here. I looked all over--kitchen, litterbox, bed. Nope. I looked at the man and he said she'd be back in a few days. Said something about her back had hurt a long time and needed to be fixed but he'd take good care of us. I rolled onto my side and then rolled halfway the other way like what they call an S. He said, "Yep, if she could do that, she'd be here right now."

Guess that's just one more reason we're so much more superior than humans: We don't waste words, we always get what we want, we can sleep anywhere, we always land on our feet, and we have extra bones for flexion.
She's home now. It's been a few days and I missed her (I guess Chi and the guy did too). But it's great she's back!!!! Now I can snuggle into a little ball against her again and get my chin scritches again.
