My husband and I are not "two people who have a pet cat."

My husband and I are not "two people who have a pet cat." No.

She is not his pet, he is, I think her legal advocate.

"My client is registering a formal complaint about the lateness of breakfast."

"My client may start formal proceedings against you if this healthy low protein diet program continues."

"I do not know the current location of my client, but I would point out that for this hearing such information is not within the rights of the court."

Does she pay him? How?

@futurebird my partner is the same

@futurebird She pays in cuddles, probably. You get them for the food, he gets them for the services.

@futurebird In purrs.

@futurebird - Pure endorphins, mainlined.

@futurebird

I'm assuming it's pro-bono work based on the client's circumstances and her adowwwable widdle face.

@futurebird Is Pica a kidney cat?

[futurebird@sauropods.win]

@Twotired

Yes. She needs to reduce her protein intake. But she also had a thyroid problem that made her lose a lot of weight a year ago (her pills have fixed this) I'm wary of her eating any less since she's doing so well.

She's 18 as well and very happy playful and healthy. So I think about her quality of life a lot.

Eating food is one of her favorite things next to being petted and complimented.

(She love it when you talk to her and tell her how lovely she is.)

@futurebird are you the defendant? Or the opposing council?

[futurebird@sauropods.win]

@independentpen

I know this won't make much sense but... I think I'm ALSO her "legal advocate" and the points of contention between us, as perfectly aligned parties, are all over how to best serve the desires of our client ... the questions of what is reasonable do not enter this court.

@futurebird think about the phrase "humans have domesticated the cat" and in how many ways it's wrong 🙃

@futurebird My wife is currently unable to get out of bed and start the day because @Menhit has decided to lie across the back of both her knees, pinning her down.

It is 3:05pm.

Am thinking about springing her from jail by bribing the screw: should be sufficient if I open a tube of Churu in the kitchen …
