Hi my friends!!
Today I would like to show you an event that takes place at our house EVERY DAY!
Since I rule the homestead, and my Sheltie brother, Dakota, is a "cat wannabe", I determine when we will eat!
Our dining "ritual" begins at approximately 3pm (yeah, I know that is early. We are "early bird special" diners in our family. Chalk that up to having older-than-dirt pawrents).
I begin to "circle" my Dad while vocalizing my desire to scarf down dinner by summoning the most annoying, whining "meow" that I can muster, (make sure your volume is turned up so you can hear!)
Then, Dakota chimes in, in all of his manic glory!
My normally low-key and reserved Dad pulls out all of the stops for dinner time as you will hear in the worst-quality-video-ever-to-be-filmed below. I apologize for my Mom's lack of video skills, but ya gotta give her credit for trying! In her defense the room wasn't that bright either!
Be sure to watch real closely or you will miss my awe-inspiring gate jumping skills! You would think that I am the Sheltie in this household...naw, I'm smarter than that. He still hasn't figured out that he COULD jump the gate if he wanted to. You'll have to excuse him, he is "one sandwich short of a picnic."
Anyway, watch the video and you can thank your lucky stars that it is SUPER SHORT!
HAHA!!! I'm going to remember that (one sandwich short of a picnic) and put it to very good use one of these days!
ReplyDelete...and Cody, I think the Olympics are calling. ; )
You boys all make too much noise! Although I have to admit that Binga is a pretty annoying nagger.
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Boys will be boys! They will make noise no matter what. purrr...meow!
ReplyDeleteMe and Charlie saw this over at Dakota's blog and are still reeling at your super duper awesome jumping skills, handsome Cody! Yay! Take care

Love this! It is so cute and so like what goes on at this house (minus the dog and minus the tail ):)
ReplyDeleteHey - whatever it takes to begin the feeding ritual around the house is OK! We learn all the tricks of the trade when it comes to begging for a meal VERY quickly!!!
ReplyDeleteKitty hugs, Sammy
I think Dakota has very MAN voice but boy, you can do agility!

Too funny. I am always amazed how our 3 cats are creatures of habit and know the routines of most days.
ReplyDeleteFor example, after I feed them in the morning, my shadow Buddy, immediately waits at the bathroom door -- when i take a shower, he drinks from the facet, while another cat takes my place in bed, and the third waits for me to get out of the shower and have breakfast so she can sit on my lap and have some milk...LOL
Oh my Ceiling Cat, y'all were hungry!
ReplyDeleteOMC - that is so very funny, Love your High Pole Jumping Skills Cody - yup - Olympics are calling you!
ReplyDeleteHAHA! Now THAT'S the way to show your love for food! Such enthusiasm!
ReplyDeleteWe need you for the jumping Olympics!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly

ReplyDeleteYeah, you have to let the humans know when it's time to eat! Hey, when your tummy says it's time, it's time. Right?
ReplyDeleteCody, we are IMPRESSED by your gate-jumping skills. Pawsome job!
"One sandwich short of a picnic" is a very British expression!! lolol. Cody you have the Olympic high jump sown up!!! nd I think you have a certain place in the Jubilee choir :)

It is very important to train your humans for prompt mealtime feeding! You seem to be a very effective team. What was that manic thing your dad said at the end?
ReplyDeleteHahaha! That was a hoot! And a bark... ;-)
