Default I do NOT spoil my cats!

Well it's getting cold here and everyday since Friday I have gone out in

Thursday night I forgot to hang up my warm fleece jacket and Bonnie has
taken to sleeping on it and she looks so snug I haven't the heart to
move her. This is DESPITE the fact under said fleece jacket is a fleece
wearable blanket (Our heating is on the blink and anyway I'm trying not
to turn it on to save money I look ridiculous in that and fluffy
slippers but who is here to see me now? Apart from the cats and they're
not fashion critics) so it's not like I am condemning her to sleep on a
hard cold floor (Spirit prefers to sleep on the kitchen floor but even
by cat standards she's weird) but I just don't have the heart to wake
her up and push her off my jacket.


My cats aren't spoilt- they're just in charge

That's a step up from me. AS you say our cats are in charge.

Yup. I recently gave a speech about cats and dogs. I started this way:

"Whether you're training a dog or a cat, the first thing you need to do
is to make sure they know who's in charge. Once a dog understands that
you are the boss, he will do everything he can to please you. Once a
cat realizes that you will obey his commands to feed, pet or play with
him, he will be pleased."
