I am always trying to show Mom and Dad how smart I am. Sometimes when I show them something really great they don’t react the way I’d expect! Like yesterday, for instance. I’ve been watching my Mom for some time open the screen on one of the windows on the bus in the living room and hand Dad out things mainly while he’s cooking dinner on the grill. They do grill out a lot and so I’ve been trying to figure out how to open that screen myself. Well, last night they had some steaks on the grill and I just walked over to the window and opened the screen right up by sticking my claws through the holes in anticipation of my Mom needing to use it. The humans were not amused and I just can’t figure out why not. I certainly was not thinking of jumping out. Heavens no - a cat knows when he has it good!

So today my Dad went off to the store and bought these window screen locking things so now I can’t open the screen anymore. Bummer!
