Kitties!
Maui here.
I decided to get up on the pot shelf in the kitchen, the one place in the house where we are Not Allowed.
Mommy saw me do it, and instead of reasonably asking me to reconsider my decision to ascend (and prevent me from Getting Into Trouble) she ran for the camera and screeched for Daddy...
...who flung the Washrag of Discipline at me.
I was not impressed, and moved to a new spot...
...where I was once again accosted by Daddy and his filthy fabric flagellator!
Enough of this nonsense.
I'll get back up here when they're not looking.
I shot Daddy a Dirty Look, so he knew I was only getting down because I wanted to.
Meanwhile, Mommy continued to document the entire sordid affair.
Traitorous wench.
Somebody's gonna get a surprise in their shoe!
Maybe two somebodies.
Happy Thursday!

That pot shelf is soooo tempting though - I think a row of you up there would look great.
ReplyDeleteAnd why is it humans think we'll move if they throw clothes at us ? It just gives us something to play with.
Um, if they don't want you up there, what's with the convenient stairway?
ReplyDeleteYou should has sat really, really still and they might not have noticed you up there - you could have blended in!
ReplyDeleteThis is funny. If our gang had a convenient route to the top of the cupboards they`d all be up there. Well, at least the young`uns would.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, did you just say there was a place in your house you aren't allowed to go?
ReplyDelete"Washrag of Discipline?" Oh, give me a break! That is the silliest thing I've heard coming from your already-silly humans.
ReplyDeletesrsly? you was so purrrrrfectly camouflaged I canna believe they seed you. And a washrag? really? I suppose it's a good thing they didn't come at you with a loaded water bottle! I say they got no right gettin all foldy armie at you when it was so totally obvious how fantastic you looked up there with all them suns! pffle. pffle & coswollop.

maui did you just invent that washrag of discipline thingy? you are so cute when you are disobeying your humans.
ReplyDeleteemma and buster
A washrag? BWAHAHAHA! Did you wipe your bum with it and throw it back?
ReplyDeleteMOL! You sure knew how to position yourself up there, Maui. Oh, and how we laughed at your Daddy's filthy fabric flagellator!
ReplyDeleteWait a minute wait a minute wait a doggone minute! Are you saying that there is a place in that house where you are NOT allowed?? Haven't you realized that you seriously outnumber the humans? YOU should be making the rules and tossing things at them for not obeying! Right? Right!
ReplyDeleteWow you got all the way up there, well done! I would leave a little gift in both shoes if I were you. Purrs Skipper
ReplyDeleteMaui don't tell Mommy but you looked so cute up there on the forbidden shelf!!
ReplyDeleteZowies, Maui! You are one mischievous kitty!
ReplyDeleteI must say, I LOVE how you embrace color! I do not have that gene apparently. I try, I truly do, but I never quite succeed.
Maui, you looked so nice up there. Why did they make you get down? When we had kitchen cabinets that didn't reach the ceiling, it was one of our favorite places to hang out.
ReplyDeleteAt least you only got a dish rag waved at you -- our human would have gone for the spray water bottle.
ReplyDeleteOur human once saw Derry get up on top of the cupboards, but there's nothing interesting up there, unfortunately.
STANDING OVATION IN NC FOR MAUI MANCAT OF MISCHIEF. WOOHOO
ReplyDeleteTHE POT SHELF IS MOST BEAUTIFUL AND COLORFUL...NO WONDER YOU WERE UP THERE.
MOL MOL MOL WASHRAG OF DISCIPLINE...IS ABOUT AS DANGEROUS AS BEATING MY MOM WITH WET NOODLES.
WE GIVE YOU ALL A+ FOR THE DOCUMENTATION!!
HUGS MADI AND MOM YOUR BFFF
LOL at the washrag of dicipline. We were hoping you would just throw it back down to flagellate your Daddy!
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Oh CR@P! They've got evidence!!!
ReplyDeleteThe REAL Maple Syrup Mob xxxx
Not the washrag of discipline... You're lucky to be alive...
ReplyDeleteMaui, we see you really love to live dangerously! Way to go, girlfriend! hehehe!
ReplyDeleteLOL, the dishrag!
ReplyDeleteMaui, I love your fluffy hair!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe best places are the most high!
I love the dishrag of discipline :-) At our house we use the "spritz bottle to the haunch" as a deterrent which I had to use the other day when Casper was at the brand new Zeppelin adding some much needed (in his opinion) claw marks to our new wireless music system.....UGH!
ReplyDeleteIf you weren't supposed to get up there, why'd they paint it a bright color like all the shelves and nooks in the catio? Humans are so hard to understand sometimes.
ReplyDeleteBut you look so GOOD up there!!
ReplyDeletewe don't see the issue here - you look very nice with the pottery, you were obviously being careful since nothing broke, and for pete's sake they left that mail box there for you to use as a step. What were they expecting??? MOL
ReplyDeletemaui....sorree we gotta say it
ReplyDeletepleez hold

Top shelf trouble fur sure, but don't let them rag on you too much!
ReplyDeleteOh no! Not the wash rag of discipline! I bet you were shaking in your furry boots.
ReplyDeleteMaui, our Thelma would have loved you. When she was with us and our cabinets did not go to the ceiling, as they do now, she loved to get up on the tops and knock things off. But she wasn't the only one. MacKenzie broke something very expensive once, and that is when everything had to come down. Hope you leave your mommy's things alone. They are very beautiful! Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Misty May, Mauricio, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteNice try Maui, you almost were not noticed. I thought that cats were allowed everywhere. What kind of silly rules do you have in that house. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThat perch is way too irresistible and easy to access. Odin would use it to snoopervise cooking.
ReplyDeleteSince when were the humans the boss of where you could go in YOUR home.
ReplyDeleteSilly things.
Way to show them, Maui.
signed,
the kitty brats
We would not be impressed with the Washrag of Discipline either. Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteHow brave you were Maui to get up there to survey the terriroty at the risk of grave harm (yeah, that's it) from the flagellating washcloth. That Daddy's a tough man. We wouldn't dare cross him.
ReplyDeleteI don't even know how they saw your petite self up there, Maui!
ReplyDeleteI didn't see a kitty up there. What was all the fuss???
ReplyDelete;)
We thoughts you looked furry pretty up there Maui with the pottery around you. Daddy better be careful with the dishrag of discipline...he mights knock over something, MOL.
ReplyDeleteSigh...and Mom says, OMC your mom has the stove she wants with the double oven. Can you ask your mom if she likes it?
Silly bean!
Sasha, Sami, & Saku
With just one paw, you could make such a lovely SMASH! Hmmm, we'd go up there too...
ReplyDeleteThe proximity of the refrigerator is practically an engraved invitation to go up there. Plus, that looks like a perfect spot from which to look down upon your minions. We love the look on your face as you descended...only because you wanted to.
ReplyDeleteMaui, good job. If you can get up there, then it is NOT off limits. We kitties like to be above our minions.
ReplyDeleteMaui, why are they making such a fuss about you being up there? There are beautiful pots up there but none is as beautiful as you are so they should be honored that you visiting the pots...
ReplyDeletePurrs
Actually Maui I thought you looked like a sculpture up there. Perfectly fitting.
ReplyDeleteOh! How Brave you are, Mr. Maui, facing down that Dishrag. You showed that Piece of Cloth who's boss. And I, for one, LUBS Forbidden Places. It's like some magnetic pull, isn't it, an Unseen Paw, guiding us to climb higher, higher! up to the top where only the most rare, the most valuable, the most breakable resides. It's a calling, really. Since they can never truly understand, I try not to hates the Humans, but it really is tiresome. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteOh my stars! That made me nervous! But the 'washrag of discipline' made me laugh! LOL!
ReplyDeletexo Catherine
yoW! nicely done, Maui! for some reason, our mom wasn't breathing as read through the post...
ReplyDeletePip, Smidgen, Minnie, HOllie
Oh noooz ! Not the wash rag of discipline ?!
ReplyDeleteI can see you got really terrified *mol*
