"Graymond, I hear her coming...did you knock over the crystal vase like I told you?" "Sure did Raku...there are a million pieces on the wood floor!" "Great...let's go great her at the door and rub against her legs telling her she was missed."
"Graymond, Raku come here!" scream the mother pet parent. "Boy Raku, she sounds mad. Let's go and start purring and look innocent." "OK, you two...I know you did this! Don't look so innocent and act like nothing happened. Why did you do this when you both have been so good?" asked the mother. "Graymond, here comes the kid...let's go and just look at him like he's the one that did it." "Good idea, Raku let's go to our cat furniture and watch."
"Michael Junior! Did you knock this vase over playing indoor nerf football with your friends next door?" the mother yelled. "Umm, I don't think so?" was Mike's weak response. "Oh, this is so good Graymond...she no longer thinks we did it...what shall we do when she is making dinner?" asked Raku. "We could go get that sweater she likes and start making biscuits...she's not having any of those for dinner, is she?" asked Graymond. (At this point you could see that both cats are just beaming with delight)
While "mother" is preparing dinner, what do you know, there goes Raku and Graymond to the big potted plant, right in the middle of that beautiful white carpet and the digging begins...but then here comes Bruin the family dog to check up on the action. "Raku, here comes Bruin, let's go!" Now, mother with a little free times walks around the corner of the kitchen to discover dirt all over the carpet! With steam coming out of her ears and scolding beginning to commence, both Raku and Graymond are licking the evidence off their paws.
Does this sound like your house? From a cat's perspective this is normal "play". Their true intent was just for some human interaction in their play time rather than just leaving "toys" on the floor. So, next time you come home and something is damaged, remember to stay calm and interact with your furry companions. They need human companionship and attention, just like you!
