Future Kitty-in-Law

Kreisleriana had some very interesting
things to say about Future Kitty-in-Law:

I have to just vent here, because I love my SIL dearly, and would
never complain about her-- in any of my family's earshot. But she
is a great killjoy when it comes to my nephew. She's always saying,
"I don't want him to learn that," or "I really don't want him to pick
up that habit." I don't get it all all. It's MY nephew, isn't it?!!!
:P

But he *is* HER child, not yours, sorry to say. I'd think a parent has
greater claim here.

But Aunties are there for spoiling the kids and teaching them the things that
Mam and Dad won't like how to sing Greasy Grimy Gopher Guts.

That's my argument anyway, but my husband doesn't quite see eye to eye when we
visit his sister...

I figure that's what Uncles are for to, so when my nieces were younger
I gave them all those things their Mom and Dad somehow forgot - like
that drum set that Chrismas. For some reason, after that my sister
insisted that in the future she approve all their gift requests... I'm
not sure why, since I was in Oklahoma and they were in California.

My sister Ann is getting married soon and I recently spent an evening
with her, Patrick, the hubby-to-be and his lady tuxedo cat Lucy-Fur (as
in devil-cat). Dunno how she got the moniker, as she is a very sweet kitty.

Aww. Congrats to your sister for finding such a good catslave. )

Lucy has lived with Patrick for fourteen years, ever since he rescued
her from a cat colony near his apartment building. Lucy has her Paw Paw
and soon-to-be Meowmie wrapped completely around her little toes! And
she has trained them well--at intervals during the evening she would
wander out to her food bowl in the kitchen, meow plaintively, gaze
longingly down at the bowl and then look up to see if anyone was
responding. She would repeat this a couple times and sure enough either
Pat or Ann would come running to give her a treat before the fourth meow.

She tried this on me when I was alone in the kitchen with her, but I
told her she had to ask her Paw-Paw first...

It's good to hear that your cat-in-law to be has properly arranged her
household. She should fit right in to the family, yes? ;-)
