Actually Troi (the cover model who also happens to be my cat) doesn’t have a particularly grumpy face in general. She was probably falling asleep

My other cat, Alia *always* looks grumpy though. She’s not really; she just looks that way.

Wow – the cat on the cover of that book reminds me of Nutmeg, including the apparent vague glare she’s giving us. The Nut looks cranky but she isn’t – she’s got a fab nature even for a dumped puss.

“The trick is that you have to make them think that the change was their idea the whole time.”
- Heck that works with guys as well!

I agree – tail straight up, butt wiggling is a hussy thing! (That didn’t seem like what Chris was describing, but maybe I misread it.)

Wine after trimming kitty claws sounds like a fine idea! Humans need a little positive reinforcement too

My darling coal black starlet, how true about those terrible rules. Please, please, join me some day for a leisurely nap at my place. I have, for your enjoyment, a double ceramic sink which mom preheats for me every morning at 6:30 am by “doing the dishes”. After which she dries it out and I curl up on one side in my nice hot sink and watch the birds out the window. The other side is so lonely, won’t you join me? Say you will? There are many fun little objects on the windowsill to knock off as well.

Yours most affectionately,
Evanrude

P.S. When you purr and stick your nose in the drain it sounds really cool and echoey
