Human follows me around, kisses and pets me since the morning…
“Oh, human, I feel something fishy… and it’s not an aroma of fresh tuna neither bonito flakes“. I decide to nonchalantly show indifference. I meow out loudly to order the breakfast from this obviously lazy person. If she keeps up this way, I will have to cut her benefits.
Surely enough around the noon everything becomes clear: bathing time. It’s not a big deal since I love to keep my purrfect body clean and fresh.
She grabs me gently and carries to a tub. “Hey, hey! Check first if water is not too cold! Do it!… Yeah! Now, after you checked the water, put me gently in…yes, not too bad“.
I always have to remind her what to do: “Oooh yeah , a little more under my belly. I said under belly, don’t splash soapy water all over my eyes!! So clumsy!! Aww it stings”

“OK, that’s enough, I don’t want my paws to wrinkle up like raisins. I want out. Use soft towel! Now!!”
My human needs my constant supervision, she hopefully will learn tricks soon… Not soon enough if you ask me. Why do humans think they are having higher IQ than animals?
Bath makes me tired… I will take a quick nap.
I’m blissfully sleeping, wrapped in cozy blanket, dreaming about bird hunting and here she comes again. She puts her face in my space and grins like she just found fresh treat. I can’t have any peace at all! And she talks gently, almost innocently… “Oh no!!” I know she is up to no good, and this is just a trap…. “ Wait, wait, what do you have in your hands, human? Why is it shining?? Is it..?!!!??”
“Oh noooo!!! You have no permission to cut my nails!! Absolutely not, I say nooo!!!”
Don’t ask me silly questions, of course I put fierce fight. But she doesn’t understand what my ‘no’ means. I told you already that humans aren’t so smart after all.
She casually cuts my nails for no apparent reason. Within minutes she destroys weeks of me caring and growing my beautiful, long, well manicured nails. How does she dare to do it so carelessly? I was proud and happy that will soon be able to try to buff my purrfect claws on our comfortable sofa. Yuck, cat even can’t have her own dreams and ambitions!
How I will show up in public places now? How embarrassing I look with cut nails? Does she forget I am purrse kitty? She damages my sphynx diva image!
The truth is: I can’t be upset with her for too long. She dances and coos, tall Monster, seduces me with favorite treats. I think she tries to apologize and cater to my needs.
Finally I give in and let her pet behind my ears… Let’s see what else can I get as an apology…
