That darn cat
May. 6th, 2005 01:12 amWell, it finally happened. I peed on the cat.
I would like to stress that it was not my fault. Having begun, I couldn't stop peeing, nor could I very well move. When the cat jumped up on the rim of the toilet, I did my best to direct the stream away from her, but she followed it ("Shiny! Moving!"), until I was aiming for a diminishing circular segment between cat and rim. Scolding and shooing had no effect. When the gap dwindled to zero, I either had to pee on the floor or shift, quickly, across the cat to the rest of the bowl. Which I did.
The fact that she then jumped across the bowl, directly through the pee, is also not my fault. She was completely unconcerned; in fact, as far as I could tell, she did not notice. When I finished, she looked up at me with a "Where'd the toy go? Make more!" expression on her face.
I washed her off with water and a paper towel. That bothered her.
Stupid cat.
