The Stare Down

Do you know how long me and Big D had to sit and stare at Typing Slave, who had the gall to eat her dinner while sitting in the recliner, before she'd give us any of her food? Man. I thought I was going to age an entire one of my lives before she caved.

My SOHC-approved advice to fellow meankitties -- staring works best when you can (a) get close to your victim's face; (b) keep doing it for a prolonged amount of time [ie don't start a staring contest when there's anything better to do, like lay in a sunspot or run crazily from room to room]; and (c) have an accomplice in the staring.

4 legs are better than 2. 4 eyes are better than 2.

Sincerely,

MK

Damn. They're staring so hard that I feel like giving 'em MY dinner. :-)

MK must be slipping. *My* kitty would have been up there with her furry fingers in the plate!

Our cats have learned I'm not the one to come to for people food treats, but DH is swarmed at meals. Heheh

This is why I have a dog. But he stares too just not quite so intently.
