Pest control

[captainsblog]

Zoey is as loving and adorable as ever, but she has the manners of a middle linebacker who was late arriving to the trough for lunch on Raw Meat Friday.

When I feed the cats, I usually have to use the downstairs bathroom, either to dish out the food in there while she protests, or to enslave her while preparing the meals next to the washer.  She's no better-mannered when it comes to anything we happen to be eating, especially if it has any form of meat or dairy product in or on it.

So I've resorted to the dry-spray method, an improvement around computers from what we used to use- a plant-watering sprayer we refer to as "Mister Water Bottle." These days, we chase her with canned air. Or, as it appears when it's stalking her, Canned Dalek:



Exterminated kitteh is not amused.

I thought about putting a cactus next to the puter. Evil aliens seem to dislike those.

unless they ARE the evil aliens. (cf. 'Meglos').

You would think that cats and Daleks would be natural allies!

I hope you yell "Exterminate! Exterminate!" when you chase her with it, at least sometimes.

She looks oddly like a Yorki in this picture.
