Cristina departed early this morning for a networking event and I seized the opportunity to break into the cabinet where she stashes the good stuff- catnip! At first the cabinet door would not budge, but I persistently kept pawing at it until the latch broke free. I was a cat on a mission and NOTHING was going to stand in my way! My eyes widened as I saw the newly bought bag of catnip and I felt the excitement a child experiences on Christmas morning running feverishly through my veins. I stood on my tiptoes and was able to little by little nudge my bag of bliss off the shelf. Then the best part- tearing into the bag and rolling around in the catnip until I was covered from head-to-toe!!!! I was in a state of euphoria until all of a sudden the room began spinning...next thing I knew three hours had passed and Cristina was standing over me with a look of dismay on her face. I knew I was really in trouble now! Lucky for me she thinks I'm the cutest cat in the world, so she can never stay mad at me for more than a second!
The moral of the story is this, it is possible to have too much of a good thing and everything in life is best in moderation. I am sorry to report that I will be off the nip for a little while until I can learn to pace myself...
