Mom: Finny, I need to have a conversation with you. I'd like to discuss.... blah, blah, blah...
Is that a bug over there? ::Pats carpet with paw:: No, just a ball of floof.
Mom: And your Dad agrees with me... wah, wah, wah...
Is that dirt on my white cuff? ::Licks at paw::
Mom: Fin? Are you paying attention?
Fin: Yes Mom! Of course.
Mom: Okay. Well as I was saying...
I wonder what the inside of my eyelids look like right now. Maybe just a quick look.
Moms are good at talking a lot, aren't they? We've learned to ignore ours too.

Blah blah blah...that's what we hear most of the time too.
ReplyDeleteLucky we can turn off our translation some time : )
ReplyDeleteThe talking is not so bad - it's the actions that are really annoying.
ReplyDeleteFin, we sure know that blah blah blah stuff. We try and ignore it although mom seems to get too loud. We need earplugs!!! Lots of love, Holly, Lilly & Angel
ReplyDeleteI think that's how most of our conversations go, too! (only we say, yada, yada, yada) Haf a great Wednesday! xoxo
ReplyDeleteHahahaha, for once I am above all that. My SS can't talk - every time she opens her mouth, she coughs!!!!
ReplyDeleteExcellent ingoring! Fin, you are the Empress of Ennui.
ReplyDeletePhew! That's tough, Fin. purrrr *giggles*
ReplyDeleteLOL! Isn't it amazing how there's suddenly so many things to do when someone starts to yak yak yak?
ReplyDeleteOh well done, Fin. Don't give in to the "dark side".
ReplyDeleteOh, how the Mom can drone on and on at times. Thank goodness for daydreaming, distractions, and dozing.
ReplyDeleteBeing ignored by a cat is one of life's highest accolades!
ReplyDeleteWe hear you, Finny! But we're also wondering, could there be something exciting afoot?
ReplyDeleteAll we ever pay attention to is the rattle of the kibble bag or treat bag, or the sound of tins being opened. The rest? Yep, blah blah blah. :-P
ReplyDeleteMoms sure talk a lot! We don't know what they're saying either...zzzzz
ReplyDeleteJust as long as you keep your ears open for key words. I listen selectively....blah blah blah "cheese" blah blah blah "sock"....
ReplyDeleteYou neve know when humans will say something important.
If your mom is anything like ours Fin when you've had your nap she'll still be rabbiting on!!
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
That was such a good job Fin ignoring your Mom. We do the same thing most of the time unless she is opening a can. Nuts to the conversation. Well done our friend. Take care.
ReplyDeleteYeah, take a long nap - hoomins never have anything worthwhile to say anyhow. Except of course if they are praising us.
ReplyDeleteMOL. That's how it should be, Fin. Well done.
ReplyDeleteOMC I loved this!!!! That sounds as if it would be EXACTLY what they are thinking when they are ignoring us lol
ReplyDeleteFin, have you been talking to my cats? Because I'm pretty sure they're channeling that same vibe :)
ReplyDeleteMOL I can relate!
ReplyDeleteYou are a master conversationalist, Fin.
