Conversations I have with My Cat – Part 2


Me:  What do you think of this one?

Gwennie:  No, no, no.  We can’t use this picture, Momma.  I’m bathing in it.  People might think I’m dirty.

Me:  I think just the fact that you’re bathing would suggest otherwise.

Gwennie:  I don’t like it.

Me:  Okay.  How about this one?

Gwennie:  I look stoned.
Me:  Do you even know what that means?
Gwennie:  Of course.  It’s when you take too much catnip. 
Me:  How about this one?
Gwennie:  Well it’s an excellent profile shot but the shadow behind my ears makes my head look distorted.
Me:  Gwennie, this is for your blog.  Not the cover of Vogue.  Just pick one, will ya?
Gwennie:  No!  It has to be perfect.  Or at least decent!  The whole world is going to see this picture.
Me:  The whole world?  We only have four followers.
Gwennie:  That’s because your posts suck.  Mine are going to be much better.
Me:  Thanks.  I appreciate your support.
Gwennie:  You’re welcome.  Shall we continue?
Me:  If we must.
Me:  This one?
Gwennie:  Too much shadow.  Geez, Momma.  Were you even paying attention in all of those photography classes you took?
Me:  Be nice, cat!
Gwennie:  You’re awfully grumpy.  Maybe you should have a Snickers Bar.
Me:  Why?
Gwennie:  ‘Cause on T.V. when someone is grumpy his friends give him a Snickers Bar.
Me:  Oh boy.  Moving right along then, how about this one?
Gwennie:  I’m all head in this pictures.  Maybe you should get me a booster seat.
Me:  I don’t think you need one. 
Gwennie:  Sure I do.  My paws don’t even reach the table.
Me:  Your paws aren’t supposed to reach the table.  You’re a cat.  You eat in the basement.  Remember?
Gwennie:  I’m in denial.
Me:  (Sigh)  This one?
Gwennie:  That’s the picture you use for your Twitter account.  Personally I think that’s just wrong.  You should use your own face and leave me alone.
Me:  You’re cuter.
Gwennie:  That’s for sure.
Me:  Oh yeah!  I’m just feeling the love from you, kitty.
Gwennie:  You want love?  Get a dog.  You want brutal honesty?  That’s me.
Me:  One last picture and then you have to pick.
Gwennie:  (Yawn).  That’s acceptable.  We can use this one. 
Me:  Are you sure?
Gwennie:  Yes.  But when I become famous I’m going to hire a professional photographer.
Me:  You are just rude!
Gwennie:  You don’t like it, get a dog.
Me:  I just may.
Gwennie:  Momma?  You wouldn’t really get rid of me would you? I’m just a baby.
Me:  You’re lucky you’re cute.
Gwennie: I’m exquisite.
Me:  Good to know.  Is there anything else you would like me to do for you?
Gwennie:  I want a Twitter account and a Facebook Page.
Me:  Oh Boy.  I’ve created a monster.
