I am not the only one who is so excited when a new package comes in the mail. Almost every day is like Christmas I walk up to my front door and there are packages of gifts from the shower or the wedding that people are kindly sending directly to the house. Today was no exception when I walked up to my front door there were 4 large packages. After I manhandled them into the house I proceeded to unwrap them all to see what treasures we received today. An hour later I noticed that the house was unusually quiet. The golden rule is if the kids (2 cats and a dog) are quiet then you know something is probably going on that is not supposed to be going on. So I went to investigate the silence. I found both cats shamelessly prostrate across the now empty wedding gift boxes claiming territory to them as if they were precious cushions laid out just for that purpose.
I did not have the heart to throw them away just then, I reasoned I would throw them out once they got tired of them or at the very least once they were off of them. Yet every day I returned home to find both or at the very least one or the other on the boxes. They protected those boxes like tree huggers would an ancient tree using their bodies Gandhi style with civil disobedience. This lasted for 6 days and I swear they knew that I was looking to throw them away so they created a schedule where the precious boxes would never be left unguarded. Of course I, being of elevated intelligence and opposable thumbs; got them to abandon post for the only thing that I knew would work. Catnip.
PICASSO AND SEURAT PROTECT THEIR TREASURES LIKE TREE HUGGERS
