Not my fault this time

So now Mom fell down the deck steps too. I was not even there so it is totally NOT my fault. Nobody knows for sure what happened but she hit the stone pavers at the bottom and ripped her toe up really, really bad. (Just like when I had to go to the vet because I tore my claw out by accident) But there were some bad words and a pair of flip flops ended up in the trashcan. Mom came in the house bleeding and cried like crazy. We all tried to comfort her. Blaze even tried to head bonk the sore foot and roll on it. Then when Mommy was soaking her foot to clean it up, Blaze decided to taste the water so Mommy pushed her away, so she put her front paws in it instead. (Something's not quite right with that Blaze.....I think maybe Mom dropped her on her head when she was little or something.) But I really think Mom should let me go outside again now there is proof that these clumsy people fall down those steps even without my help.

I'm sorry Mommy!!!!!

I am so sad. I lost my "outside" priviledges last night. Mommy lets me go on the deck with her as long as I don't try to go down the stairs. I am the only kitty who wants to go out and sometimes I cry at the door so she takes me out for a visit. I like to wander around and sniff things. But last night Max (my doggy) ran by on the grass and I got so excited that I ran after him. Auntie Barbara bolted out of her chair to grab me and because of her slippery sandals, she fell down the stairs. It made a loud BOOM and scared me so I ran even further. Mommy couldn't get to me because Auntie was blocking the stairs but Max came out from behind the shed and "herded" me back toward Mommy. Phew! Saved my life because I was so scared that I didn't know which way to run. So then Mommy grabbed me and put me back in the house telling me that I was all done with outside for good. I am sorry. I didn't mean to cause trouble. I just got excited. I bet Auntie's butt is a bit sore today but I didn't mean for that to happen. Maybe if I am really good, Mommy will take me out when we don't have company.......
