Major guilt trip

Josie broke Dad's heart this morning ... he was getting ready to leave for work and went in to the kitchen to get a big water and his lunch and Josie followed him in and begged for some pets. Dad gave her some love for a minute, then went in to the living room to get his keys and wallet. Josie followed and flopped in front of him for some more attention. Dad rubbed her tummy and skritched her chin, then headed to the door. Josie quickly followed and stared at Dad as he left, as if to say, after all that you're still going to leave? He wasn't happy to have to go to work, but unfortunately that's what has to be done. But he did tell Josie to go snuggle with Mom (that's always his instructions as he leaves for work).

I hate it when the Woman leaves even when we don't want her to.

Our humans should be paid to stay home and cater to our whims! Somebody needs to turn that into a source of income.

Gosh, that sounds like what Pee Queen does! It's always the little cats who can get the most guilt!

I always try to make the people feel guilty about leaving even though I want them to so I can get some peace and quiet. It's like our JOB to make them feel bad...

Now if all of you could coordinate and do it all together!
It is too bad he can't stay there all day for you though. We are spoiled to have mom with us all day, thats for sure!
