As soon as our neighbors start to make noise, I get up.

Every night Joanna leaves 2-4 dishes with different foods so I can snack before she wakes up.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/leaving-cat-city-life\/wpid-cam02197-jpg\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2291\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-2291\" alt=\"Running on the bed\" src=\"https:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/pmworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/wpid-CAM02197-e1372642526255.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"320\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As I&#8217;m finicky Kitty I do what all pets do. I try to wake up my human. If she is not moving, I start to walk on her body parts until she opens eyes. Once I get her attention I start to give her my magical kisses. I use those only in the morning or when very hungry. Since I give her wet nose and side mouth smooches she runs\u00a0into the kitchen to prepare fresh food for me.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/leaving-cat-city-life\/cam00940\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2314\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-2314\" alt=\"Eating\" src=\"https:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/pmworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/CAM00940-225x300.jpg\" width=\"180\" height=\"240\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After my breakfast regardless of human&#8217;s action, I start to roam and hunt. I check for those obnoxious birds and squirrels who annoyingly tease me through the windows.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/leaving-cat-city-life\/cam02187\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2313\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-2313\" alt=\"Window hunting\" src=\"https:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/pmworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/CAM02187-e1372646790761-290x300.jpg\" width=\"232\" height=\"240\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes there are some flies or bees which pass by closely. I make sure I keep them away from my home! Looks like my tactics are working because until now no birds nor squirrels got into our apartment. I have to admit, insects are canny and from time to time visit us uninvited. I tap them few times on the head and Joanna makes them vanished.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/leaving-cat-city-life\/wpid-cam02289-jpg-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2306\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2306\" alt=\"By 59th St. and 5th Ave \" src=\"https:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/pmworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/wpid-CAM022891-224x300.jpg\" width=\"224\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I am and &#8216;purrse&#8217; kitty. I get to go where no sphynx or cat goes:). \u00a0My human takes me everywhere. Lately we were in the doctor&#8217;s office.\u00a0I went to hotels, casinos, buses, trains, restaurants (get my own sit), supermarkets,\u00a0Times Square, Hamptons, Montauk beaches, boardwalks, malls,\u00a0work spaces and even was in the front of White House. Some people find out, but once they see how cute and stoic I can be, they welcome me warmly. Last time I was buying newest IPad with Retina (yes, you read it right, I did!) in Apple Store on 59th Street and 5th Avenue. People who work there were so nice, let me touch devices and choose with my own paws. Even took few pictures of me and Joanna.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/pmworld\/living-city-kitty-life\/wpid-img_20130620_172821-jpg\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2289\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2289 aligncenter\" alt=\"Coco-Mau Aqua choose white IPad with Retina \" src=\"https:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/pmworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/wpid-IMG_20130620_172821.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When weather is nice we go to the Central Park or by Hudson River or to the \u00a0park on E 92nd Street. I love to watch people, kids, animals or play with dogs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We don&#8217;t see any cats unless we go to Petco or Petsmart where Joanna is showing me those less fortunate kitties, filled with unconditional love, waiting to be adopted. Usually she feels very guilty that she can&#8217;t take them home&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I go with her \u00a0to work to meet clients. They are noisy places filled with talking humans and loud live music. If we are long she sneaks some food for me.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/leaving-cat-city-life\/wpid-img_20121221_232433-jpg\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2298\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-2298\" alt=\"Snacking inside of purrse\" src=\"https:\/\/petmonarchy.com\/pmworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/wpid-IMG_20121221_232433-300x300.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<img alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Joanna works also from home.
