I just realize that I have lengthy conversations with my cat. Maybe I need to get out more? Please tell me I am not alone out here! (About the conversations, not about the need to get out.)
Here is an example of my possible decent into madness:
I stop Athena at the cat door between the living room and the lanai because she has a lizard in her mouth.
Me - You are not bringing that lizard into this house!
Athena - meow?
Me - Because the last thing we need is another lizard in here. And it isn't nice to the poor lizards either.
Athena - Meow
Me - I said no. There is already a lizard under the sofa that you brought in yesterday.
Athena - Meow!
Me - No, no lizard heads or tails either. I know it is in your nature to hunt, but I still said no.
Athena - Meow?
Me - Yes, you can come in, but you have to put the lizard down first.
