While candidates quarrel about who’s going to answer the phone at 3 AM (sorry Chey), they overlook the obvious …
“It’s 2 am, you’ve been sleeping for three hours. You’re hungry. The food dishes sit on the kitchen counter, clean and waiting for early breakfast … which is now. Quiet attempts are made to wake the help. They do not waken. To rouse them, you meow directly into their ear. They get up and proceed to feed you.”
“It’s 2 am … who do you trust?”
“And, if the phone rings during the night, ignore it. That’s what voice mail is for.”
Meezer Rule: A happy and proper meezer household is where the staff is trained to do its job at all hours, with no exceptions or exemptions.
For more Meezer Rule Wednesday, visit Sammy and Miles, Caroline, Fiona, and Simply Siamese.
Brillaint rule – not sure we get DKM to do that rule… but we will try to keep training her.
It is a very good rule. In fact, I think I am superbly qualified to answer that 3 AM phone ONLY if my humans actually feed me at 2 AM….
::SIGH:: – i wish mommy was so well trained. You all are our idols!
Well said! A meezer — indeed, any cat — needs to know the rules in order to make sure their human follows them.
At 2am! Your beans are nice!
I am going to keep Bear away from reading this post.
Wow! Train my Momma like that m’kay?
Absolutely! Plus, you have to make sure they are ready ON DAY ONE.
