My name is Fleur, and I am very important! I am so important that I wear special tags on my collar. One tag says that I got a shot at the Vet, one tag has my Mom's name and phone number, and both of these tags give me special privileges!

| Exercising sofa privileges |
My special privileges include taking over the sofa! And if you don't understand, I will explain: I get to live in a motorhome, and a motorhome has a very small number of seats. In MY motorhome, there is a laz e boy recliner that my Mom sits in, and then there is the sofa. That's it... no other seats at all unless Mom turns around the driver's seat (when we have a visitor). So being licensed to take over the sofa is a very important thing!

| I'm watching everything that goes on around me! |
It's my job to make sure the entire world is behaving as they should. The cat should be in the sunny windshield, not on the sofa. If she is on the sofa, it's my job to tell her (in no uncertain terms) that the sofa is MINE.

| The cat cannot sit on the sofa at all! |
 |
| I have to hang over the edge of the sofa to keep my eye on everyone |
The WHINE is my secret weapon to keep Mom's mind on ME!
Good job Fleur! If you train them correctly from the start, you can take humans just about anywhere.
ReplyDeleteNot Fair! You are going to give Fleur more ideas than she already has!
DeleteBut if I remember correctly, Fleur, you are not the only one licensed to have these privileges?? ;)
ReplyDeleteJudith, you are going to be in trouble if you get TWO greyhounds whining! So far Power is not a whiner, but if he gets it going I'm going to ship his whiner to you!
DeleteI remember when you didn't get on the sofa. LOL
ReplyDeletePlease look below for the reply... Blogger screwed it up!
DeleteFleur, I really believe that you and Flattery might be related! She does that, too. Particularly when she is displeased about something!
ReplyDeleteHoundstooth, I believe that if Flattery is royal, then we are of course related! However, I believe that Whining should not be used without careful planning! Mom's nerves must be already frazzled or the effect is diminished!
DeleteFleur, It sounds like you have your mum trained well.:)
ReplyDeleteSue, sh-h-h-h-h! Don't let on to mum that she is well trained, or I will get a dirty look from her!

Not the whine! Especially at 2 in the morning. Maybe if your mom sat next to you on the sofa and read/watch tv? Would that help?
ReplyDeletePlease look below, Blogger screwed it up!
DeletePatty, Joey, and Scout , you are correct in that it has been only a few months since Fleur and Power were allowed on the sofa! However, Miss High and Mighty Whinyness was practicing her art while lying on her dog bed for 10 years before the sofa privileges!
ReplyDeletegyeong, I am not a nighttime whiner. I really like my sleep! Only if my bladder is yelling at me, do I whine during the night.
ReplyDeleteNow Power is a different story!
I'm too distracted by your auto-tilt solar panels to take Fleur to task. Fleur Honey, name it & claim it! You are the Queen! Sweet & funny post--thank you!
ReplyDeleteMy Ziva holds those powers too. Hard to resist her sweet face!
