Sometimes, when praising your watchcat, you might need to make an abrupt detour. I did that this afternoon with Watchcat Collette. I started petting Collette, saying, "Aw, nice Collette. You're--NO, NO, NO! STOP, STOP, STOP!"
Fortunately, I prevented Collette from eating a deviled egg. My voice returned to normal volume as I told her, "I'm glad you're my cat, but I need you to not eat things you shouldn't eat."
"Never a dull moment," indeed.
