 Another Excerpt from "A Cat's Rules For LIFE"


HAMPERING:If one of your humans is engaged in some activity and the other is idle, stay with the busy one. This is called "helping," or commonly known by humans as "hampering."



Following are the rules for "hampering" :

• When supervising cooking, sit just behind the left heel of the cook. You cannot be seen and thereby stand a better chance of being stepped on and then picked up and comforted.
• When supervising the laundry process, it's  always appropriate to sit down on pieces of freshly laundered clothing, throw a leg back and begin grooming.
• For book readers, get in close under the chin, between eyes and book, unless you can lie across the book itself.
• For paperwork, lie on the work in the most appropriate manner so as to obscure as much of the work as possible or at least. Pretend to doze, but every so often reach out and slap the pencil or pen. Bite when you're moved on.
• When a human is holding the newspaper in front of him/her, be sure to jump on the back of the paper. Humans love to jump.
• MOST IMPORTANT When human is working at computer, jump up on desk, walk across keyboard and write a short story. Bat at mouse pointer on screen as if it were real. Then lay in human's lap across arms, hampering typing in progress.
