One of my lady friends just came by and asked if I’d do her a big favor by watching her three cats for a couple of days. Now, usually, I wouldn’t even consider having a cat in my house for any reason, but seeing as how she’s always been willing to aid me whenever I was in need of her assistance, I agreed to look after them until she returns from her company conference. Which will be in about three days or so.

I can only hope that these hairy little critters are housebroken and don’t decide to use my potted plants as their own personal bathrooms. She left me with cat food and even a few “cat toys”, to help keep them entertained. So far the only “entertainment” they have been enjoying is walking underfoot and making me trip a lot, not to mention their constant frantic races around the living room. I’m not sure if my not having acquired a dog yet is a good thing or just untimely.
