I have blogged in the past about my cat, Stormy, and how she thinks the printer is a very fun cat toy. Well, I thought we had gotten past that as she had not shown interest in quite a while. Obvisously I was wrong. I had coupons I wanted to print and I had to get my son to soccer. So I hit the print button and walked out the door. This is what I returned to. It seems that my helper thought she had to help the paper out of the printer and then kill it for me. Oh well, so much for saving time. She's just lucky that she's cute.
This is Stormy. She loves to help me when I use the printer. By help I mean that she likes to pounce on the paper as it gets fed into the printer. She also likes to grab the paper and help it out of the printer. Stormy also can flip open the printer cover where the ink goes.
I try to print when she is sleeping, but as you may know, cats have very good hearing and I have a very loud printer. When the printer starts Stormy comes flying from wherever she is in the house, slides across the desk, sending papers scattering and parks herself right in front of the printer. Gone are the days of hitting the print button and going off to do something else while the printer does its magic. Now the printer needs to be babysat unless you don’t mind coming back to a shredded document.
Good thing she is a lovable, funny and dopey pile of mush or she would have been hung up by her ears long ago.
