Well, let me tell you, she's not the only one who ponders and provokes thoughts around here.
Starting today, I would like to share with you, my readers, some mysteries that make me (The Owner Of This Blog)
"Is it time to feed me?"
"No? Are you sure?"
*
"How about now?"
"Later. Really?"
*
"Come on! Surely it must be time to feed me! That's the 7 o'clock news on telly. I'm not stoopid you know."
"Don't you get paid handsomely to look after me, Typist a.k.a. Nutritionist a.k.a. Cook?"
"Service really sucks around here."
"Soon."
"Later."
"Not yet."
"No."
Good grief! What does that even mean?!
Can you help me with this Great Mystery? I would love to hear from you if you can!
*
"Feed me or I kill the pig."
"The dogs cop it next."
"Please help."
No wonder you eat donuts, GLP;)
ReplyDeleteHere is Morphee, Vero's daughter's cat, speaking.
ReplyDeleteMy humans are even meaner. They bought a programmable dispenser, and say it is not their fault if I'm starving, but the dispenser's...
Stupid machine
Dear Morphee, I never heard of such a thing. Can't they programme it to feed you every hour? I'd like that! Cool name you have, BTW.
ReplyDeleteThis is a most vexing mystery for us, too! I mean, sheesh, you were starving just last week and they wouldn't even let you eat a doughnut! I wonder if they're secretly eating all your food and just putting you off, thinking you won't know.
ReplyDeleteBunny
=O Maybe they've put you on a diet!
ReplyDeleteI know whan I put Kyuss on a diet recently, he was always wondering when he was next going to be fed. =]
they don't feed you thereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...n oooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.. i am calling the SPCA.. and and and... getting you a plane ticket.
ReplyDeleteI'll bee at them airports to pick you... i'll hold a card with the words GLP... come quick!
woofs n licks,
Dommy
good thing you killed the donut... serves them right for not feeding yous on time... and and and... urmmm... letting you wait and wait...
can't wait for your Mystery #2 :D
It's true some NASTY humans at the park have lately been telling My Cushion I'm fat (!) and, no thanks to them, I am now on a tiny diet. But this not feeding me when I ask has been going on forever! I think my humans are just being mean and want to show me who's boss.
ReplyDeleteDommy - I think your keyboard might be crook. It's typing a lot lot lot of of thiiiiiiiiiiiiiis ;) please send air ticket ASAP.
Deah Georgia. My mama is ALWAYS tellin' me "your tummy clock's early". I think she's making that up. Do we have clocks in our tummies? I. Don't. Think. So.
ReplyDeleteI think your humans (and mine) are just too lazy to get up right then. Or they are control freaks and not going to let US tell THEM what to do.
Canines Unite! Free Access to food at all times! Enslave the Humans!
Oops I forgot to sign my last post and I was using my mama's (Jean's) computer! That was me, Eddie, in case you couldn't tell!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are quite the philosopher, Georgia. Is this your version of "if a dog eats but is still hungry, was she ever fed?"
ReplyDeleteHoney and I are coming to the rescue. We just need to become better sailors, sell the house, buy a boat, and sail to Sydney. We should be there in about 3 years.
Just hang in there. We're coming with snacks. Really.
Delilah seems to feel that she should be fed when she wants it as well. My only advice Georgia is that the humans have a better grasp of time, calories and whatnot. You are wise to listen to them. :-)
ReplyDeleteEddie - sign me up please! Just one question. Once the humans are enslaved, who'll be doing the cooking? I hope you're good at poaching chicken.
ReplyDeletePamela - Ooooo... that's a good one. My Typist is jealous.
3 years! Are you guys slow learners or what? I don't know if I can hang on that long but I'll try!
Try this...it works for me. Bark once. wait by your dish. Bark three cute barks and paw at your dish. Still not working? Bark bark bark - not stopping and move the dish across the kitchen floor all the way to the closet where the food is. My peeps cannot resist this cute move with the incessant barking. They know I mean business! Good luck. Let me know how it goes.
ReplyDeleteDelilah - your human sounds very sensible. What are calories? Should we be worried?
ReplyDeleteScrappy - thank you for your tip! If you look closely at the blurry pictures, you will see that I've tried barking, that is to say ...communicating with my humans many times over this issue. I've done the nose to bowl trick, stare at microwave oven trick and sitting forlornly in the dark kitchen looking starved trick. Nothing seems to work! Could it possibly be because I'm not little, cute and fluffy like you?
idon't know what's wrong with my cow's puter thingggggggggggy... cos it doess a lot of thisssssssssssssss.. dun know the whys.. but but but.. mebbe her brains (if she has one) isss on them fritzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
ReplyDeletebzzz bzzzzz
Dommy
me draw yous a ticket tomolosssss... if me paws can work them craaaaaaaaaayons.
good nite lil Pea :)
Munching on things humans like for some reason--books, shoes, glasses, car keys--shows them you are serious about your nutritional needs.
ReplyDeleteYou will just have to put faith in your humans as to when feeding time is. Patience is a virtue, Miss GLP
ReplyDeleteGeorgia, if the hoomans are enslaved, they will be OUR slaves and hafta do everything we say, including cook for us and feed us whenever we want. Not that they have to cook for me - I eat raw. Hmm.....but I do needs them to shop for me.
ReplyDeleteI like Jan's suggestion - make sure one of the things you munches on is the remote control for the telly. I hear they is very tasty. And the hoomans won't be able to watch TV and keep you waiting fer your dinner.
Eddie.
Karen - patience is WHAT???
ReplyDeleteEddie - oh now I feel all stoopid because I never thought of that. They not in cages, they got chains on so they can move and shop and cook and stuff. Gotcha!
OMG! Haven't you a heart Typist? Cushion (I know you're reading this)? How could you resist those eyes??? She's clearly wasting away. No wonder she had to resort to the doughnut!
ReplyDeleteFreedom, Casper and Nikki all wear wristwatches and gang up on me to feed them at the prescribed times. You need two more pups in the house so you have the "numbers" advantage and can therefore intimidate The Typist.
ReplyDeleteOh my poor Ms Pea, whatever is the world coming to!!!!!!! I only have two things to say - you just say the word girrrl, and I'll arrange a vinnies food parcel for you, and to keep the ants outta her pants try the Mortein. (Huey didn't get killed off)
ReplyDeleteMs Jana is in total sympathy with you, 'apparently' I am trying to kill her off (she's on a tiny diet too). Keep yer muzzle up girl, and the face-down-on-crossed-paws-with-sad-eyes is always a winner and "they" will succumb eventually.
xx
Huey???? Typist I know you are reading this to Georgia,so let her know its "Louie", I knew THAT!! Bwah hahahahahaha........Huey....... let's keep her education 'correct' :)))
ReplyDeleteSo sorry that your humans are not cooperating :( I know you must be starving!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, Yuki speaking here, this is what you do when the humans don't feed you when you think you should be fed. You sit right in front of the person who feeds you, and obnoxiously bark, the bark used for when you are demanding something. When you are barking, you stare at the human, and don't move or stop barking until they give in and get up! That's what I do, I hope this works for you!
ReplyDeleteYuki (and Rocket)
Freedom, Casper and Nikki - now that you mention it, I think you're right about numbers. I got fed much more punctually when Rufus was around.
ReplyDeleteRose - you did give The Typist a moment. "I'm Huey the fly, I'm Huey the fly." haha!!! NOT! ;) Please send Jana my sympathies.
Yuki - thanks for the tip! Unfortunately, my humans aren't just tough, they're deaf.
It's a mystery to me too!
ReplyDeleteGirl, I has been contemplatin' dis fur da past 4 years of my life...and I still has no answer and I is too tired and weak from da lack of food to think anymores.
ReplyDeleteMaybes I can come meet you and sneak you out and we can go to a nice restaurant and gets lots of entrees and even some desert...our hoomans will nevers even knows we is gone.
Puddles
OMG! The pleas from the stuffed dogs was priceless! Georgia - I believe my dogs are suffering from a similar issue.
ReplyDeleteUs humans have to stik together. I got no answers for you here. :)
Waiting for food sucks
ReplyDeleteStop on by for a visit

Hehehe...oh no, my nails is goos and dirty nows, all caked in mud. You shouls has heard da words come out of my mum's mouf!
ReplyDeleteYpu soooo need to learn PS...my mum learned herself so it can't be day hard.
Puddles
PS; Is it time to eat yet?:)
GLP you seem to be a destructive streak. I get angry even thinking about going on a diet so I can understand.
ReplyDeleteI do see that someone got a new dishwasher, which of course means that your typist will have more time on her hands for typing, which means you'll have ample opportunity to air your grievances while you're watching your figure!
Don't let those meanies at the dog park get you down, GLP, you are gorgeous! Now, this poor kid has something to worry about: http://tinyurl.com/dyxd5vz
-c at ddy.
New dishwasher? Noooo?
ReplyDeleteOh HAHAHA! Now THAT dog is f.a.t. Don't worry Miss C. I'm not going to let some nasty people telling the truth get me down. Love ya! X
Hmmm... that's a good question. Why isn't the right time just any time that you're hungry?
ReplyDeleteI can not STAND those answers! "later", "not now", "for crying out loud Kolchak, knock it off". I can't stand it! We're practically abused Georgia, I tell you!
ReplyDeleteHmmmm. Bella would like to offer GLP these suggestions:
ReplyDeletetalk. a lot. bark. mumble. moan and whine. these seem to be the only things that get the hu-folks off the couch and in the kitchen to give me chicken. :]
