Language

I've been working on my verbal skills lately.

I, Daisy, have noticed that AFH goes all gooey when the cats talk to her.

Mo, the old boy, sits in the kitchen and says "Now", and she gets him his special food and chats away to him.

Jaz runs to her and says "Me, me, me, me", which I consider very self-centred, but makes AFH go "Awwww, baby, did ya miss me?"

Garfield is only a young lad, and is always in a huge hurry, so he hasn't really started to talk yet, but I think he is going to try the "Me, me, me" caper soon. He loves the attention. Stupid attention seeker.

So, after watching these goings on, I decided I would show what I was capable of. I put my verbal skills to the test during a grooming session while the teenage daughter was holding me and AFH was brushing. The daughter was looking me in the eye and calling me, Daisy, "Dragon Breathe". So I looked her in the eye, put on my most severe face and said......."Mole".

They both fell about laughing. Which was not quite the effect I was hoping for, but shows that my language skills are far superior to those of these other cats.

I'm working on "Imbicile" next. For that foolish man beast.
