Eye of God

The eye of God! That is what my husband calls Jack our one eye cat. Today my husband was cooking fish and the smell had over taken the house and of course Jack was around to inhale that divine scent. When it came to sitting down to eat. He was right next to Shelia drooling and letting us know he's there. Every once in a while i would get a paw hitting my arm, or a head bumping up again my leg. "Jack i know your there, wait till I'm done." In return i would hear these cries 'don't forget, don't forget' After a while he would causally walk up to the dog and smell her mouth. You know just in case she got something when his head was turned. He is funny to watch. When he knows it's going to be a while we will catch him sitting on the chair behind us watching at eye level to make sure we saved him some. "ahhh, the eye of God is watching again" as my husband starts laughing at him. Which in return, made him jump down, throw himself on the floor on his side, like he's half starving to death. Than just lay there as he melts from the heat. He's such a drama queen.

After we ate i had put some a side and went hunting for the other three to see if they would like any. But to do that i had to lock him in the kitchen. Which is always fun trying to quick close the door while one foot is holding him back from escaping with me. After i managed to get my foot out of the door and him locked in the kitchen i went searching for the others. Cleo was sleeping in the bedroom, i showed her some fish she smelled, licked and turned her head. I kinda figured that might happen. Zoe was laying outside sunning herself. I gave her some at first she wasn't sure. Than after hitting it and killing it, she settled down to eat what i gave her. Now Tony i couldn't find I'm yelling his name and of course he's not coming out. In the mean time down the hall is Jack pounding on the kitchen door yelling " forget him, I'm here i like fish...ahhh..mooooom, he doesn't like it anyways he never likes fish...come on I'm here" this goes on the whole time I'm looking for Tony. Who is under the bed. I showed him the bowl of fish and he wouldn't even come closer than a foot away, "what the hell is that, I'm not some stupid street cat i don't eat fish" and again down the hall is jack banging on the door..."I'm a stupid street cat, I'm a street cat I'll eat it, I'm not so picky" So after a couple Min's of trying to get tony to even smell it i gave it to Zoe to clean up. Afterwards i went back in the kitchen and now jack sees I'm still caring the bowl and is trying his hardest to trip me up. "I'm here mom, I'm here mom" "yes Jack i can see u do u want some fish now?" this is the part where he looks at me like i must have a screw loose or something. Hasn't he been trying to tell me this for the last hr. He runs over to his shelve and waits for the fish. It's the first time i ever seen him not inhale his food and he actually sat there for longer than 10 sec and ate it. I gave the rest to Shelia and everybody was happy. As i write this Jack is out in the yard, pass out in the chair, with a smile on his face. Wonder what he's dreaming about.
