» Monkey + Roses Yellow Jeep Blonde: What do you do AFTER the kids grow up? I COOK!

Monkey + Roses

I think that my Monkey really believed that those roses were for HER. Chris showed them to her. He took this cute picture. It all seemed innocent.

This is what they looked like on Saturday, Valentine’s Day.

See? Pretty leaves, yes? Then I get home from work and this is what I find:

She chewed half the leaves off. The long blades of greenery. . . stubbers. Leaves. . . chewed up and spit out no less. I’ve never known a cat that ate foilage. Mice, yes. Even a bug or two. But leaves? She’s a strange one.

She’s in the doghouse now. She doesn’t know what kind of week I’ve had. Let’s just say that at the end of yesterday, I was talking to my youngest about my day and I referred to the fact tomorrow (which is, if fact, today) was going to be Friday. Monday and Tuesday were a whole week long.

Yep – Monkey’s in the doghouse. No cuddles for her.

Nathan’s cats always eating the leaves on my flowers. She doesn’t climb on the table for food but flowers, well, leaves on flowers..weird. I knew that cats liked grass but I didn’t know they liked bushes and junk.

You aren’t kidding about that tough week! I haven’t seen DeWitte this stressed in forever. I’m glad you guys brought Chris back, hopefully he can relieve some of the pressure.
