Don't Try This At Home!

Before I start I want to make sure every kitty knows that the trick I’m about to discuss should not be attempted at home. Remember, even I failed at this trick and it was after many practice runs! It’s not an easy trick! (But if you are too tempted, make sure the toilet water is clean!)

Warning: This trick was performed by a professional stunt-kitty, and performed under the strict supervision of a Stunt Director (aka Meowmy) for safety. Mia cannot be held liable for any bodily injury or harm…including wet paws or other body parts; any broken stunt-kitty dreams; or any ensuing embarrassment, that such kitty might encounter when attempting to duplicate the toilet trick. Any attempts at such trick are at the kitty’s own risk.

Ok now that we have THAT out of the way…I’ve been trying to perfect a new trick that I have. Meowmy actually doesn’t like it too much and has warned me several times of the possible consequences of continuing to do such trick, but I never listened. You see, I’ve always been interested in achieving new heights and investigating new things within our house. There are still a few places that I have to check out. Meowmy usually has our toilet seat down, unless of course it’s in use. So I’ve been sneaking peaks before and after their use! Though I will admit, I have gotten impatient at times and joined her while it was in use. Anyway, up until the other day, I was pretty good at jumping onto the seat and balancing myself up there. I mean I do have little paws and the seat is wide, it’s no big, right? The other day I snuck a jump up, right as Meowmy was about to take a seat. She yelled at me to “get down”, so I had to turn around and jump down. Well, my balance must have been off that day because all of a sudden my back paw slipped and…PLOP! It went in the toilet! All I could say is “Aaaaaah my foot is wet, my foot is WET!” I scrambled to try to get it out and jump down. My back paw kept slipping on the seat from the wetness. I ran and licked it as dry as I could, but it still felt wrong long after. I walked around shaking off my back paw for quite a while. Meowmy kept laughing at me. She told me “I told you so”. Also that I ‘deserved’ it, because I was interrupting her from taking a much needed pee, if you get my drift. (She was dancing around the toilet when she first got there, you can imagine how much she was dancing by the time she got done laughing at me.) So I guess what this has taught me is to work on my balance and, of course, never give up. Even though I may have gotten one wet paw, I’m going to stick it out and try, try again! I’m a brave kitty. I just need to order me a wet suit online first…what size do you think I am?
