Why Old Women Shuffle

     Rannie tha cat -- who has been being quite a pill this morning, including trying to bite my bare leg twice -- was finally good enough for long enough that I could give her a little dish of olive oil without rewarding bad behavior.  Shortly after, I stepped over her on my way out of the kitchen, and she dodged -- right under my descending foot!

     I stepped elsewhere, Rannie called me A Very Bad Name (RrrrrraitMmmmeanie!), and disaster was averted.  But it's a darned good reason to not pick up one's feet.

  1. Did that once to my SPCA rescue-e.

    It's surprising how loud they can yowl.

    She forgave me.

    (After all, who wouldn't?}

  3. Try having *seven* cats of varying ages.

    I shuffle like an old Chinese Papasan.

  4. Cats are universally part of the vast feline conspiracy to kill us all and eat our bodies!
    And yes, I am owned by two...

  5. If you are not old, we call it the Lego shuffle. Don't wanna step on THOSE suckers.
