Enough is Enough
Our Can Opener meant to be obedient and type for us yesterday, but life happened. AGAIN. Yesterday turned into a long, exhausting day for her, and and a boring day for me and Mount Sushi.
Not that Mount Sushi minds- as long as beloved ‘Mr.Dyson’ doesn’t reach his attachment too close to her on the couch where she’s snoring. The Can Opener got the new Dyson and immediately fell in love. Look, I know it’s hard being alone after 40 years of marriage, but I think she’s a little too attached to that thing.
Every time I so much as scratch, here comes the giant bullhorn pulling up the carpet behind me. Mom says it’s a “constant battle” to get all our fur out of the carpet, the couch, the cat tree, and anything else we come into contact with. But that thing follows me around everywhere threatening to suck the whiskers right off my face. So today, she decided to vacuum the bedroom- and then she saw me in my bed.
Unfortunately, she also saw my lovely fur arrangement on my bed and I knew what she was thinking immediately- “there’s an attachment for that!”
I bolted out of there before she could even hit the “on” switch again.
Now I have to sit here on the cat tree (which for some reason only blooms when I’m around)- and wait to see what will be left of my soft, furry bed after the carpet eater attacks it. I really don’t know what she sees in that thing.

Cricket said she is with you on that one. Carpet suckers are evil and need be prohibited from existing. (The proceeding comments are not necessarily the beliefs of the typist who understands the need for the removal of shed fur)

We agree- but as soon as the Can Opener opened the box and put that thingie together, Sushi and I knew we were in trouble! Glad to know you’re on our side!

We have a Dyson, too…and it does a great job…we just sigh and stalk off.
In the past two of our kitties enjoyed vacuuming brush massages, and one of them (Toki) would actually get up and go to the last place he knew I would be at so as not to miss his session. LOL!

MOL! I’ll have to try that on Twilight-I know some cats love to be vacuumed- but I suspect Twilight would head to Mars if she thought I’d use that on her! 🤣

We’re pretty lucky. Our carpet-sucker only comes out once a week. My Dyson sounds awful.

Ours comes out at least 3 times a week because the Critters like to make messes- especially when they eat- and Run back and forth from outside to inside- i would hope it would retire soon- but being she just bought that thing a few weeks ago, I have a feeling that we’re stuck with him- unless Sushi and I can lock him up someplace….
