Sweet!

Fin: Guess what friends? I was so put out on Halloween night, that I've been rewarded handsomely for my trauma. I was so parched, locked away in my bedroom prison, that I decided to look in my sink to see if a little water had ponded there, and that's when I noticed a gift from The Cods.

A perfect cat-head shaped glass filled with water! And no Mom around to foil my enjoyment! Yum!

Mom Interrupts (Rudely): It's always there Fin. Always. Everyday. You just breeze past it in your mad dash to the faucet. Always there, and refreshed daily.

Fin: Really? I never noticed. Huh. Anywho friends I was super starving and decided to scoot out the the kitchen to verify the candy grubbers were indeed gone. I was on my stealth reconnaissance when I noticed I had a whole bowl full of kibble, right beside my dish! It was delicious! 

Mom (Again Rudely): Yep. That's always there too. All Day. Every Day. See, no need to wake me up at various hours of the night. In fact, it's been there since the day you arrived. Remember, you used to only eat kibble, anytime day or night with no need for me to get up. I call them the "Easy Days."

Fin: I call them the "Dark Days", or "BG" (Before Gravy). Besides if I didn't wake you, you might sleep the whole night through!

Mom: Exactly!!

Fin: I don't see your point...

  3. Fin - well, we agree with the Katnip Crew - Moms like to mess with our mind. Like the other day, we couldn't find our "toilet"!

  4. Fin, I'm confused. Does your mom really think that there is a way to get you to stop waking her up in the morning?

  5. I think I must be getting older because lately my mom wakes up before me.

  6. Maybe, just for one night, don't wake your mom and let her sleep. That would alarm her and think that something is wrong with you.

    Thanks for the special insight that explains so much.

  9. Fin, I see a slight lack of communication between you and your human going on. Not sure what you can do to get her up to speed, though.

  10. You just want that special touch you Mom gives the water and the food. She is tricking you Fin, don't let up the waking routine. Mom enjoyed this conversation a lot since we have some like that here all the time. Take care and have a great Tues.

  12. Now I'm confused too, what's wrong with waking everyone in the middle of the night???

  13. We're pretty sure the Cods wanted to console you after all the horror you had to endure with the ghost and goblin children...

  14. Well, we don't understand why your mom *wouldn't* want to be woken up all night, every night. Our mom enjoys it soooo much!

    So, Fin, we say don't fall for the full glass and bowl trick, because at night, they just might be empty!

  15. Haha! Now after you wake your mom up during the night, you can refresh yourself after with some nice cool water, Fin!

  18. Mum is always moaning too when we wake her - as if we would do that!!
    If a book decides to fly off the table next to the bed or she thinks someone has walked over her she must have eaten too much cheese before bed and had a bad dream.
    These mum's are such moaning minnies - we put it down to her old age!
    We understand how you feel Fin - is your mom as old as dirt too?

  20. Just checking to see if you made it home from the Halloween party. Boy, we sure all had fun, think we need to do this again.

    Your mom is right on this one when she said that she is always there. Yep, pretty much the way it is with the mom here too.

  21. LOL!!! I love the conversations you two have :-)

  22. I don't know what my mom meant, but she just said "I feel her pain"... huh...

  23. MOL! Fin, sometimes there is just no reasoning with the folks :).

  24. Well, if the water container and kibble bowl never change, how can you be expected to notice them? Silly humans!

    I also used to be 100% kibble, but now I have the gravy addiction and kibble doesn't count as food so long as there is a human in the house to provide more gravified food.
