“ This is my house. You can’t come over here. I already warmed up the owners and have just had them start to feed me. If you come over, you might ruin it. They aren’t very well versed in cat owning and get scared easily. It’s taken me 3 months to get them to start bringing me my feast! I mean…. Cat food. Just normal pretty standard cat food.” (What he doesn’t know is that since they aren’t pet owners they aren’t going to buy cat food but in fact they feed me delicious meats and fishies!) “Now scram Johnny!” *hissssss*
