Crash Speaks
Crash here. I haven't posted in a very long time, I've been very busy.
Last year, mom hurt her back. It's gotten a lot better even though she doesn't do her exercises. I got tired of her complaints so I made up a game to get her to exercise.
Whenever she's on the computer, I come into the room and meow. If she doesn't pay any attention to me, then I try to climb up her leg. This really gets her attention. Then, she offers to pick me up. I pretend that I don't want to be picked up, so I run away. As soon as she gets settled, I try to climb up her leg so she can bend over to pick me up. I run away again. I do this about 5 or 6 times so she can stretch her back, then I let her pick me up and I purr and purr. All that stretching seems to be helping, she doesn't complain as much.
I also heard that it can be very dangerous to take a shower, although I can't imagine what you humans think is so great about having water poured all over your body. Then you have to use that noisy thing to dry your hair. But I digress. To keep mom safe, I sit right next to the shower while she's washing. As soon as the water is off, I leave.
I don't know what I would do if she fell. Maybe Burnie could help me call 911 for help.
As you can see, I'm a very helpful and caring cat. Don't believe everything you hear about us cats.

What a wonderful cat you are! I wish my cats would explain why they do some of the things they do, maybe they are trying to be helpful as well.
