My Cat, Kat
66
Kat
I have noticed that a lot of people like to write about everyday life as it happens, a journal if you will. I fear that the mundane hours that I spend awake could hardly warrant being called a " day ". I will instead talk a bit of my kiity cat. Her social life supercedes mine ten fold and therfore much more interesting than me.
First, I must start from our beginning, that the kitten's and mine. I do not know who you, the reader may be or are, so I doubt we have a beginning anywhere if ever. Anyway, I was going through my divorce and things were really rough for me. I was worried about getting custody of my son, the house, and my collection of Playboy magazines. A co worker of mine told me she knew just what I needed and asked if i would be around that evening. Of course my mind rushed right out and dove into the nearest gutter. The my thoughts and fantasies wallowed in the squalor! I couldn't wait for the upcoming night and neither could my filthy mind!
As luck would have it I fell asleep on the couch and missed our date! I jumped with a start and immediately called my co- worker. She did not answer. But, I did hear a tiny mewing sound from my porch, like an irritating ringing in my ears. When I opened the door, there was a kitten with a bow around her neck. Just a little orange fuzz ball. Apparently my female friend had said she had a little pussy cat for me. My hearing had shut off just before " cat " and I had the totally wrong idea. Dammit! What to do with this kitten?
Time progressed and it was time to get my kitten her shots and fixed. She was in heat every other day and I actually felt perverted by the way she looked at me! Especially with her butt in the air pointed at me and peering slyly over her shoulder as if to say "come on just one time, I need it bad!" Ewwwwww! Off to the Veterinarian with her! When the receptionist asked me the name of my kitty I simply said, "I don't know, I never named her. I have always just called her 'Kat'." And so the name stuck.
Kat is not a very sociable kitty. She decides when she will be petted and where she sleeps. I can drag her into the living room set her on my lap and off she goes and with a shrug of her shoulders she looks at me and says, " I think I will go over and watch the birds for a while, now go get me a glass of water." So, I do as I am told and get her her water. She will watch the birds for all of three seconds then come lay on my lap. Life in my house subsequently revloves around her quite a bit more than I like, but I love her no matter. ... And yes, she does drink from a glass, not plastic mind you, a glass. she won't touch her dish of water. The glass has to be on the coffee table. The first time I put her glass on the floor she batted it over with a paw, looked at me and scolded, "It is not dignified that i drink from the floor, put it on the table! Now, go change my kitty litter I feel a pee coming on."
Kat may be a royal pain in my ass but she has been through some tough times with me and for her I am grateful. As I look back the divorce seemed to be a piece of cake. As long as Kat was at home I could leave all of that garbage at the court house and even during custody proceedings I seemed more calm. Today I have my son and the divorce is final. Thanks to Kat I am ok today and so is my family, Kat, my son and me... My ex and I are still fighting over the Playboy collection, but I know kat will be there through all of the tears!

very nicely written hub
Enjoyed your hub. Love the picture.
Chris, actually I write these hubs to escape momma, but she proofreads all of my material, so there is no escape! I am working on a peeing in the snow hub, but she is in jail on a parol violation at the time. I will get more news out from lot #47 soon!
Lgali, Thank you so much for the kind comment, I wanted to post pictures but Kat wouldn't sign off on the pictures I have of her. She is such a prude!
Moonlake, Thanks so much for the kind words. As i said above, kat will not allow me to post her pics. The one I post here is of one of her hit men. kat is ruthless and takes no prisoners. Too bad the perp is wearing a mask in the picture otherwise we could track him/her down for the crime pictured.
Great hub and very cute including avatar! lol
i call my Kat kitty:)
You say, "She is in jail on a parole violation." Are you talking about Momma--your ex, are the cat? lol. Great hub that you have here. I thik we would get along great. My wife says she has never met anyone with a sense of humor like mine. I think I just did.
Really great work!

All three have been in and out of the pen, but I was referring to momma. Thanks for the comments!
Oh Pest! You are very adorable. I am smiling while reading.
Somebody gave me a puppy and I named her, Gigli. I never like pets but I learned that people change. I'm standing by her and fighting for her as my mom doesn't like pets.
My family laughs at me when I talk to Gigli like she is my baby. I found out that she's a great substitute for men because she loves me unconditionally. I find her presence therapeutic.
Excellent!
Unfortunately for me, Kat dictates when she will allow me to pet her. Usually at around four am she wakes me demanding attention. I take what i can get from her!
Did you get a job or something? Have a meth accident in the trailer park, momma kick you out, the library won't let you use their computer because you owe two dollars from overdue books? You've been unusually absent. Or are you still upset about your fans forum and the hubber that snapped at you. If so get over it.
That's a sweet hub. I like Kat. She sounds like my sons cat, Diva, lol. Where have you been hiding. Hope you didn't catch my cold. My sons are mad @ me about sharing, lol. I look forward to your latest adventures, :)
You are one funny man - but according to this you have not spoken for about 3 weeks - cat got your tongue?...couldn't resist - sorry ...lol..cheers
haha. very funny story, with a happy ending. Kat seems spoiled, but righteously so. ; )
Nice hub. Very interesting story. And by the looks of it, you're right about the cat's life possibly being more interesting than yours. I see she's been having a cord party. She is awefully pretty. Name suits her well.
Have been enjoying all your hubs so far by the way. Very interesting pieces.
Haha, living in MN, I can see why your cat has more of a social life. There's nothing to do out there but freeze, sweat for the week of summer, and then freeze some more.
I know...one week of summer, three days of fall...winter is nearly eternal. Then a day of spring at the end of that misery.
Wonderful, but are you saying that Kat really talks to you? LOL Hitting the Vodka a little, are we?
Tootles!!
Her attitude speaks volumes!
