My Secretary

Here is a picture of my secretary enjoying a much-needed rest after telling me how to write the other day. He sits near my computer and gives me looks when I type the wrong thing. I wanted to get his photo of him sitting there but he is shy and runs when he sees a phone pointed at him. He is such a good secretary though. Do you have a secretary?

Can you imagine how someone would react if her cat answered the phone for her?

@BearArtistLady A lot of people are affected by the overdose of pollen in the Spring. I'm not surprised you have a kitty that is affected in the same way.

Sometimes, he does. He specializes in sitting on top of the laptop and defending his position with every ounce of his strength.

@BearArtistLady Our cats will do anything for catnip. Then they act like drunken fools.

@LadyDuck Ginger kitties are so pretty. I did not have a cat for years but I took care of cats and dogs in our park when their owners were away. They got lots of petting because I would watch the people's cable TV. Some people asked me to keep their animals company every day.

It is so much fun to have a cat around the house. We have three and there is never a dull moment.

Your photo of your kitty didn't post, hon. I'm sure he's a good secretary, though. Edit to add: Ahh, there he is! He's beautiful!

No secretary here. I am my own Boss, Secretary, Friend N Foe all rolled into one! In a way, your secretary's sternness is good for you. He might be guiding you in bringing out good or high quality output. But well, he doesn't looks like Human! Is that an animal, a mutant from the Harry Potter world or a Robot? Well, the mystery begins for me !!

He is one of a kind. There is no other animal like him. You can gaze into his eyes and see that he just knows things. He tries to tell me things but I only understand elementary cat and his wise thoughts are beyond my understanding.

Petey is great on the computer. He will erase responses, orders, programs or place orders. He also loves to sit on the computer and fart. There is nothing like a rumbling cheek rattler to make you abandon your computer for five to ten minutes. I may be getting a Siamese kitten in a few weeks and it will be interesting to see how it will grow up and how bossy it will be. I may try teaching it to make coffee and tea. LOL If Petey has his way it will also learn how to sew too. I've given up thinking that I'm the boss, my house is run by the cats.

It is so great to see you here again. I missed you. If you teach the new kitty to make coffee and tea, why not teach him to cook and wash dishes? If the cats run the house, they might as well work in it too.

@akalinus Right now I have a problem with Petey jumping on the top of my tackle boxes (they're the four drawer kind with the lid and a door that closes so you don't lose your tackle...they're darned expensive and Petey used to sleep in the top portion. I'll check and see if I still have a picture of him in it). He successfully clears the top of the boxes and sits on top of them and smirks at me. Anything that is on top of the box goes flying and I have to search for it, the big one today was my cell phone. I spent an hour searching for it and he had managed to send it flying from the box onto my chair and then bury it in the cushions. Sigh, such is life with a bossy feline! I just got a look at the picture and it's one of the good ones. He somehow fell out of the top part and fell rather ungracefully onto the floor.

Grammarly keeps telling me I made a mistake. You would think that a secretary would be more discrete than that The nerve of them. I keep messing up on spacing and I can't type right anymore.

@akalinus Grammarly has me second-guessing my spelling. I was an ace speller in school. Grammarly doesn't think so. I am happy though with the help it gives me with my grammar and punctuation.
