Cats On Tuesday: A Christmas Tail

The boys and I have been studying how different countries celebrate Christmas and making ornaments as part of our studies.  One day Mimi decided to join in.  She is sorry she did.

Ds3 is painting some popsicle sticks silver.  I had mentioned that Mimi’s cute little behind was awful close.

Sure enough.

Paint on the tail.

I grabbed a wet cloth and snatched Mimi just as she was about to seek refuge under the Christmas tree.  Now Mimi is well known as the Queen of World Peace, a very tolerant kitty, but she did not take well to having paint removed from her hind end.  When I was done with the cleaning she ran to the corner by the door.  Poor innocent Winston plopped down beside her, expecting the usual friendly, playful Mimi.

“Hey Mims, what’s shaking?” “Winnie, get away.”  “Chill out woman, I’m just playing.”

“I said get away!”

Winnie learned that Mimi was NOT playing.  I don’t think he’s ever seen her truly mad before.

Now he knows it’s best just to leave a woman alone when she is recovering from paint on the tail.  ;)
