So Everyone who knows mom knows this women is obsessed with cats.
The people at her work think she is so funny because of this. Mom put up a picture of me behind the desk where the patients check in right next to all the baby photos. Its funny because more people comment on me then the baby photos (wouldn't you?)
So today mom was being trained in on something when she heard someone asking about me to one of the other girls at the front desk. Mom tried REALLY hard to stay focused on the training but the lady kept saying how beautiful I was and asking about what kind of cat I was and so on. Mom couldn't concentrate on the training anymore and slowly inched away to talk to the lady (the training person didn't even notice at first MOL...She just kept talking)
Then she pulled out her picture of Toby too and the lady raved about him. Mom being oh so proud of us told the lady everything about Snowshoes and Norwegian forest cats. The women was so impressed by us she wrote down our breeds to research.
Mom is always happy to talk about us. Most of moms co-workers are Dog people and dont like cats which makes mom mad. Oh well they dont know what they are missing. One of her co-workers even had the guts to say while looking at our pictures "ew you like cats? I cant stand them". Needless to say Mom had to hold her words back, Smile and say " Yes! I love them like their my children"
Lots of love,
Gordy
Leave A Comment | 8 people already have My mom is like that at work, too! Her desk is covered in framed photos of all of us! Mom has photos of us at her desk too. The lab at her Dr's office is filled with kitty photos. One of the long time techs there loves her kitties a lot.
At mom's reunion she was catching up with someone and he said "so....I hear you have 30 cats?" Sheesh!!! People that don't like cats are weird! Mol!! Your diary entry cracked us up!! And I agree with Calvin, there's just something not right about people who dislike kitties! When mom used to do adoption events, time and time again she'd here, "Oh, they're cats! What good is a cat for other than catching mice?"
*grrrzz & hisses* :) BOOOO to the people that don't like cats. I don't like them neither. *grins* Loved ur diary entry Gordy. My mom is like that also. Cat people are the best people.
And you and Toby are beautiful kitties.
purrs Kallie&Joey When our Grammy worked she had pictures on her office wall of all of us. Customers would always make comments. She called it her wall of GrandCats and GrandDogs. She also had a picture of our Meowy and Auntie Brandy. In fact her co-worker had our Christmas card picture on her wall. If they didn't see Grammy's pictures they saw hers. They would always say do all 18 cats live inside? Grammy would say yes and than they would start talking about their pets.
Have a good day Gordy.
Your friends, Kibbles, Francis & Yoda Mom is known as the crazy cat lady on her team. Luckily there are a number of animal lovers, so at least they understand her obsession!
