The Typist and his Cat Cocoon
It was a Sunday afternoon; my mother was a writer and had her typewriter on the dining room table. She had been working on her novel earlier in the day. Relatives came and we were all sitting in the living room talking, and waiting for dinner. All of a sudden we heard the keys of the typewriter clicking while mom was in the kitchen preparing dinner. Well, as we trooped into the dining room to see what was going on, it was quite a sight! There was the cat up on the table playing with the typewriter keys. He would press a key with one paw, and bat it with the other paw. (This, of course, was a manual typewriter).We were all entertained and made comments as to how cute it was! The cat was removed from the table, and went to his Cat Cocoon while we went in the kitchen to dinner. Halfway through dinner, we heard the dog barking in the dining room. Everyone was curious to see what was going on, and went in to find the dog sitting on the table with her paw on the typewriter. She wanted her share of the “limelight” too.
From Cold Kitties To Purring Paws
Animals also can also experience this problem. If your family dog or cat is getting up there in years, they may also be having a tough time staying warm, especially if they have a short coat.
To check if your kitty, or dog is cold try touching the tips of their nose–if it’s cool, than their probably cold. With cats you can also feel their paw pads—if they are chilly, than kitty is cold. Also, if your pal’s nose is running, it may be a sign they could benefit from some extra heat.
