“Silly humans,” He scoffs.
They are all rushing around, putting up streamers or losing the scissors and tape among the wrapping papers. And this is why he hates Christmas. He is royalty, his great-great-great-great grandmother the royal cat of Cleopatra VII, and yet, here he is, ignored whenever December arrives. Simply outrageous! Even when he jumps on the table, no-one pays any attention at all.
Shall he tear those streamers or topple some bowls? He gives a little sigh. Time. His grandmother, the wise one, has always reminded him to be patient with humans. He can’t wait for January!

The grandmother is a very wise cat indeed 🙂 All cats look at us like we’re stupid, but not many seem to be patient! Lovely story.

Poor kitty is echoing the sentiment of many during this time of year! It’s fun but there is a lot of chaos and lots of things get ignored in the meantime.
Fun story 🙂
