The Boss of Me

It is often said that organizing

a gaggle of children or even a conference room of adults is 

like herding cats. Difficult 


and well nigh impossible. This cat, Mister Jet, is only one, but equally as stubborn. He does come with his own charm. All 


he has to do is turn his large golden eyes on me and I turn into servant rather than master. I hold the power 


of the kibble scoop, so do have an 

unfair advantage. My height, short 

by human standards, is of little 

consequence ~ he has claws and teeth 


to balance things in his favour. Only used in 

play or as love nips, I respect their 

potential to cause rips and tears to 

my soft flesh. We do understand each other.


“Never try to out stubborn a cat.

~ Robert A. Heinlien, Time Enough for Love
