Plugging the Love Machine

Look what I brought you Mom!Every morning I run the gauntlet from the bedroom to the living room and pick up all the toys in between. Then I toss them into the basket under the step. If Loki doesn’t see…all is fine for awhile…if he does see me do it, there is usually a butt sticking out of the hole within a minute or so.

At various times of the day he decides it’s time for some Loki Lovin’ and starts to bring the toys to me. He knows that he gets love if he brings a toy…but when I stop it’s not enough…he rushes off to get another. I suppose he thinks it’s like he’s plugging the meter…one toy equals a few minutes of love.,..therefore more toys keeps the meter going.

It’s cute during the day…but he often starts again when I go to bed…it’s disturbing at midnight…but I can’t help laughing either. At least I know when the end is…he currently has six toys he brings me…then it’s usually over with….he’s about the sweetest cat on the planet!

  6. That’s excellent, all you need to do is tie the toys to the morning newspaper!

  8. Lol…I get the morning knead from Murphy…it’s so cute I can’t push him off, but he doesn’t realize it’s 90 degrees and I really don’t need 16 pounds of black cat smothering me while massaging my neck (with claws I might add). How can you say no to that kind of adoration?
