Cause and Effect

If you give your cat some freedom,


 it may dart out from under a table.

If the cat darts out from under a table, the fiend will trip you.

If you trip and face plant on the tile, taking a dining room chair along for the ride, you will sprain your wrist. 

(which hurts more than a break I'm told
I TOTALLY believe it)

If you sprain your wrist, you will have to wear one of these.


If you wear a wrist splint, you will have to type with one hand and take pain killers.

If you take pain killers, your cat will have total freedom and you won't care anymore.

  4. We joke that there's some kind of secret cat-run insurance agency. We know they've upped the policy when they start running under our feet, trying to break our necks.

  5. Darn cat! I hope you feel much better soon :(

    My son wants a cat. Maybe I'll show him this post so he'll think they're dangerous and I won't be tempted to fill our house with MORE animals!

  6. That does not look like fun! Plus- school is starting this week. I hope that isn't your writing hand. Typing will be a bit slow. Good lesson on cause and effect though! Get better soon. :)

  15. Thanks so much for the healing Karma, everyone. I'm finally able to type without every other tap being a key mishit. Slower than molasses, but readable.

  17. Ouch!!! Hand and wrist injuries are NOT supposed to happen to writers. I guess no one told kitty that. Feel better soon!

  19. Ah, cats. They pretend to be all nice to us, let us pet them and feed them, but secretly they're all planning to take over the world, like in this comic:

  24. Cats! Love 'em, but that darting tendency.... hey does your cat also invariably have to stick her paw under the bathroom door whenever you are in there?

    Take care and heal up!

  25. Is his name Tripper? Sorry. That was a terrible joke . . . actually, not a joke at all. I deserve to have my commenters badge shredded.
