"It was simple," the cat replied smugly. "First, we ha...haaaa...HAAAUGH, HAUGH HAUGH KORFFF HOCK HWEEeeggh. Ptooie. Ugh. Sorry, hairball. What were we talking about?"
~nods~ Confirmed. We had a cat that was constantly trying to train us. She could *not* understand why we wouldn't just stay on the couch constantly (when not tending to her needs) & why we kept changing her environment (cleaning). There was much indignant squeaking.
I love this because it’s so true.
My take on the last sentence: "Us?" the cat said. "We only domesticated one, and they’ve never realised."
But it’s perfect as is.
