During COVID, my wife gained a supervisor; one of our's appointed himself to the job and sleep in a corner on her desk and complain loudly if she left the office during office hours. He was a fair supervisor, though, because he'd also get irate when she worked past 5.
Lost his job with the RTO policy, poor guy.
Please, OP, see these names, and mark them, for they are good, and right.
Those things are magic.
Is there such a thing as an unphotogenic quokka? They're like Capybara: universally adorable.
Thank you! I mean, for easing my mind.
Love cats. Like snakes pretty well. The thought of the kind of accident that could result from keeping both, because of one careless human mistake, makes me highly anxious.
I wouldn't keep both cats and rats at the same time, for the same reason. I just don't think I could shake that one off with an, "eh, that's nature."
Handsome dog! Whippet?
Looks like there's a decent-sized cat tree back there; no shorter than the chair, certainly.
IME with cats, they want to sit on everything. Mantelpiece? Chair back? Ottoman? They're not satisfied until they have a chance to sit on every surface. I also feel as if the place that gives them the best view on you is whatever's preferred at any given moment, unless it's too much trouble to move.
"Oops! I'm usually done by the time you come back down. Ha ha!"
Yah, it was just a comment, not a criticism. We do the same with ours, in the futile hope that they'll at least abstain from jumping on the dining room table when we have guests. In true cat fashion, we have one who only jumps in the dining table when we have guests.
How long has she been doing the job?
Ours is very good with time. I'm not sure he knows it's Saturday except we get up later; he's not thrown off by holidays, though.
However, he can tell time, in a way. He is overweight (it's a journey, ok‽‽), and when we put him on a diet he was regularly waking us up in the middle of the night, begging. So we got him an automatic feeder, to distance ourselves from being food providers. One day, my wife notices him sitting in front of the grandfather clock, staring at it... and a couple of minutes later it chimed and the food dispenser went off! He'd only do it around feeding times. I think he could kind of tell by how hungry he was, and he could tell where in the hour it was because of the different chimes on the quarter hours. So - my guess - is that based on how hungry he was and how long the chimes went, he could figure out that the food would go the next time it chimed. So about 10 minutes before feeding time he goes over and watches the clock. It's kind of amazing.
He doesn't do it as much anymore; I guess he's figure it'll go when it goes, but he absolutely stops and listens for the food dish, whatever he's doing, when the grandfather clock chimes the hour.
Maybe your's is still figuring out the pattern.
