Punishing Your Human Being

Sometimes, despite your best training efforts, your human will stubbornly resist bending to your whim. In these extreme
circumstances, you may have to punish your human. Obvious punishments, such as scratching furniture or eating household plants, are likely to backfire: the unsophisticated humans are likely to misinterpret the activities and then try to discipline YOU. Instead, we offer these subtle but nonetheless effective alternatives:

* Use the cat box during an important formal dinner.

* Stare impassively at your human while it is attempting a romantic interlude.

* Stand over an important piece of electronic equipment and feign a hairball attack.

* After your human has watched a particularly disturbing horror film, stand by the hall closet and then slowly back away, hissing and yowling.

* While your human is sleeping, lie on its face.

:rofl:

Oh my. For a moment there, I thought you were talk about some extreme self-improvement program.

My cat has the strangest habit of always wanting to go into the toilet with people. The heating is always on in that room, so we keep the door closed. I guess it wants to take advantage of the one opening it has. It's kind of funny, because it'll do it when guests come to our house too and they don't know what to do.

I thought he was talking it was a secret document circled around the ESFJ community.
Till I got to the scratching furniture part.

... I suspected the feline tone from the title... and thought Utopmk might be about to tell us that - in Real Life (;) ) - he's a cat... :rolleyes:

Nah... he's intercepting his cat's email, is all.

LOL.

Actually, the real story is funnier... Yesterday morning, I woke up to a strange itch in my ear. Remembering that Tweak (my cat), might be carrying ear mites, I googled, finding this.
