Ha! Here I am, sitting on the “forbidden” table, the supposed no-cat zone, the off-limits plane for all but me because I’m a special snowflake. I’m Tessa, a.k.a Danger Cat and danger is my business!

No one will tell me what to do. No one will tell me where to go. I will do what I want and no, my middle name is not, “GET DOWN!”

The only fly in my kibble soup is that pesky, self-appointed “cat” who thinks she’s the boss of the world. I mean, who died and made her Ceiling Cat?

Well, I’m putting my paw down on that business. No more bossing me around. I’m going to stake out my spot right here and after a few days, mom and dad will have simply adjusted. I’ll get lots of extra attention and pets, and maybe I’ll even get my own place setting. “I’ll have the filet mignon please. Extra rare,” I’ll order every evening and that other cat will count herself lucky if she even gets to sniff my plate when I’m done….”

Pia. Pretty Pia. Look this way, pretty poofy Pia. Look at the camera, pretty girl.

No thank you.

Oh, c’mon, Pia. You’re beautiful, a beautiful ginger princess.

I’d rather not. Not after what you said. I might not ever look at a camera again.

What we said? You mean, that you have nose freckles? Oh, sweetie, only the very best ginger princesses have nose freckles!

Really? They do?

Yes, sweetheart. Nose freckles are like wisdom freckles and mean you are getting all the wisdom the very best of ginger princesses will ever need. Would we lie to you?

We went shopping at Cost Plus World Market the other day and brought home a basket, because one can never have too many baskets, we believe, and someone not so wee anymore sure loved our selection. And just as soon as she vacates it, we might even use it for something!

We’ll make sure we ask her permission first, of course.
