What? on Wednesday

There I was waiting at the back door at 4:45pm for the return of my Mom from her "Work" (Don't get me started on that) and - nothing.

5:30 - Nothing (Thank Cod Dad was home to feed me!)

6:30! - Nothing (I wasn't still waiting by the door of course, but I had my ears turned towards the door)

7:15 - She strolls in like she owns the place. Did she grovel at my paws for this egregious breech of etiquette?  No. Of course she tried to scoop me up and shower me with kisses, but I was having none of it.

7:30 - She settles into our chair and has the nerve to think she can dash off a quick blog post!! Where are my snuggles? Where is my lap? I demanded a full hour of attention before I decided I'd had enough.

The worst of it friends? She said she is going "out" tomorrow night after "work" again! I hope my Floofy Friday won't be late! This is all being carefully documented for her upcoming Purrformance Review.

  1. I agree, Fin. Your Mom has some nerve. And doesn't she realize that, although Dads are good, they are no replacement. I agree that you should bring it p on her purrformance review.

  6. Fin, I think your Mom has some serious sucking up to do, but don't be too harsh on her, she's at a terrible disadvantage, being a mere human!

  7. Of all the people. I really thought you had your mum better trained than that, Finny. Back to boot camp for her, I guess.

  8. I get so mad when Marmie has "meetings" and comes home from work late. Doesn't she know I need fresh food at all times? I won't stand for it, Fin. And you shouldn't either. Good job showing your mom who's boss.

  10. You'll need to get your mom on a refresher "Fin Care" course - has she lost her marbles?

  11. I agree Fin, it's best that you rule with an 'iron paw' and accept nothing less than 100% effort. But as Carolyn pointed out-she is only 'human' (sigh).

  12. Fin, I am truly sorry that you have had to go through this kind of treatment. I know all too well how it feels since my mom does the same to me sometimes. Tell your mom to straighen up if she doesn't want to flunk the performance review! Lots of love, Holly

  14. This type of behavior is just not acceptable!!! Maybe leave a little something in one of her shoes?

  17. Wow, Miss Fin, that was just plain rude of your mom. When our mom comes home late, there is nocat waiting to greet her. We have better things to do . Thank you for stopping by our blog the other day - we've added you to our Google Reader so we can follow you!

    Your new friends, Fuzzy and Zoe

  18. Fin, you have to put your paw down hard right now. Give her an inch and she will take a mile.

  20. unaccepatable. yes, take notes for the review; dates, times.
    and, if it gets to the point, change the LOCKS. YOU come first. we wait to see the beans and when they enter WE are the main attraction!

  21. Oh Fin, you better set a copy of your book out, there's some good hints in there for her!

  23. Greetings Fin,

    We have to endure so much just to be taken care of. I guess one can only take it in strides. I guess the best you can do is carefully plan your revenge and strike when it benefits you.

    Warmest regards,
    Miss Kitty and Egmont
