COACH TOTORO SAY REFEREE CAN BANISH WHISTLE TO LAND OF WIND AND GHOSTS!
(Posting on behalf of a friend)

Hello Stubs. You are a very cute and affectionate doberman, and we let you get away with a lot. We even don't mind you sitting on people because it's kind of funny.

That said, we have to draw a line somewhere and this is it: Please stop trying to follow people in to the bathroom. They do not need your supervision or require your help to use the toilet. Frankly it's creepy as gently caress to try and go with a dog staring at you from three feet away. Waiting outside the locked door and whining and scratching to be let in is right out as well.

And for the love of all things holy STOP DOING IT TO HOUSEGUESTS.

I seemed to have gained my own Porchcat. I shall call her Porchcat II

Hello Porchcat II. I petted you once because you are a very sweet kitty and that turned out to be a mistake because you are a stalker. Please stop leaving dead birds and headless rats by the garbage cans for me, I am fully capable of feeding myself. You sure as poo poo don't need to show up first thing Wednesday morning while I am taking out the garbage and present me with a dead bird like you did last week. I'm not going to eat them.

I will thank you, however, for the excellent job you did clearing the wild rabbits out of the neighborhood over the summer. My vegetable garden actually looked respectable this year.

Another headless rat by the garbage cans this morning. I've not seen you in over a week, Porchcat II, but it's good to know you're still around. Thanks for leaving it in the morning so it can go right in the organics recycling for pickup.





Also the rats in my neighborhood are getting uncomfortably large.

I fear to ask but I must: What are you doing with the heads?
Are you eating them?
Are you doing feline taxidermy?
Do you have some little trophy case full of rat skulls a la Predator somewhere?

Or is it some sort of implicit threat that I'm just not getting?

No dead animals from Porchcat II over the last couple of weeks but she did wander by over the weekend and let my 2 year old niece chase her around the yard for a while without actually running away.

Uh, wouldn't it be everyone else projecting if they're assuming Nermal is female, just because he's super cute and has long, wonderful eyelashes?

A cat I think is female is Porchcat II, who's apparently done with her winter break because I found a dead loving rabbit by my garbage cans this morning.

One of my neighbours found her really sick and took her to a vet, and she died there. The vet's best guess was that she ate a rat that had been poisoned.

Put vacuum cleaner outside your door, run the cord up to a power bar on your nightstand. Cat wakes you up at 4am, turn on the vacuum for a few seconds. Problem solved.
