Sign: “Hospitality: making your guests feel like they're at home, even when you wish they were.” 😁

The sketch makes me picture a cat crawled under the blanket with her person to give a cheek rub. Followed thereafter by more serious nuzzling until somebody gets breakfast!

When I was cat-sitting many years ago (before Deb, still single, watching cats for a friend) I would still sleep in on weekends. Or just doze with my eyes shut. One of the boys decided I had been in bed long enough. I felt him jump on my bed, walk over to me, walk gently on my chest, and sit there. I felt whiskers on my nose, and cat breath. I remained eyes-shut and immobile. Then a paw gently, gently felt my eyes... my nose... my mouth... (cats apparently don't know how to check for a pulse?). I opened my eyes. He came to attention sitting on my chest, with an expression that clearly said, "Ah! You're awake!" And then cocked his head to ask, "So!... We ever having breakfast?"

As a cat person, cats can get a bad rap sometimes. It's true that they try to be the boss of their human at times. But I look at a relationship with a cat in a respectful way. Cats demand more respect than dogs do. Dogs tend to be happy to just get petted and handed a ball. With a cat, they will let you know if they don't want your attention. When a human learns that, a mutual respect for one another happens which in turn can be a loving and understanding relationship. Also with cats, each one has such a different personality that the human needs to learn for the relationship to work. As for pigs, yeah, I have no idea either.
