Claire is 7 months old!

The Claire turned 7 months old yesterday. It's time we revisit and revise some of the ground rules.


1) I get fed first. I can and will cry louder and longer than you.

2) I was here first. I depend on those people for a variety of things and I don't intend to let you undo the years of training I've done on them.

3) I get fed first.

4) I swear if you wake me up in the middle of the night like I've read "babies" are likely to do, you better tell the humans to feed me.

5) I get fed first.

6) I understand for the first couple of months you won't be any more interactive than a pet turtle. Once you grow out of that you better learn to pet me. Long, even strokes with the grain. Start practicing on the humans before you bring an inferior pet my way.

7) I get fed first.

Let's see....you're in direct violation of ALL 7 rules. How hard is it to follow these? And while we're on the subject, rule 8 - Don't try to eat me!!!! I understand my fur is soft and irresistible, but cut me some slack for meowing out loud!

Below are some examples of acceptable distances you may be from me during your probationary tenure.





These next few pictures are examples of how you've repeatedly violated rule 6.







Not a pretty sight. I'm not even going to get into me not getting fed first like we had previously agreed.



Anyway, on to the 7 month pictures:
