Speaker 1 (00:02):
I hear that you are Crazy Catley best I love Cats,
cat Asket, Two Girls, Three Cats.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Gratulations begun your transformation into Crazy Catley. Welcome to Two Girls,
Three Cats with Me Jenna and Me, Sam.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Happy Valentine's Day, Week, Happy Valentine's Week, Sam. How cute
is Valentine's Day? It's very cute. You are my Valentine's incidentally, Oh,
you're always my Valentine.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Stop it, no matter the day, You're always my Valentine.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Because I will cry. I will. You know how emotional
I get. So one of the best things about holidays,
Valentine's Day, Christmas, all of that. All the emails you
get sent about your pets. Oh my god, I totally agree.
You get the email coming and it's like Valentine's Day
for your pet, and you go, I'm in, yes, whatever
(00:55):
it is.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
If it's for my pet, yeah, absolutely, you've hooked me.
If it's for myself, I'm like whatever. But I'll tell
you the ones that I.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Really really love. Yes, the Pet Circle one. They just
having this conversation funnily enough with your boss today. Really yeah,
and we were both saying, what a great company because
I buy stuff with them all the time.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Oh yes, once again, not sponsored. I feel like every
episode we bring up brands and things.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Can't help it.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
I know you can't, but not sponsored in anyway humor exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
But like I always said, Pet Circle, if you want
to come on board, feel free. They open. They do
really good emails, the best emails, I think, great ones.
So they sent one, didn't they for Valentine's I saw that.
I like how we both got it at the same time. Yes,
And then I think I forwarded it to you.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, Like I was just reading yes because I was
walking around the shops and I was scrolling through my
emails and I saw that, and my first thought was
I love how they personalized their email subject so like
Connie would love this.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Or have you thought about the ending this for Connie?
Like oh, as soon as I see that, I'm like,
Pet Circle, I love you. I actually forgot that blue
Bell's middle name was Luna. And then because it pops
up on the pet cycle emails like blue Bell Luna
would love this, and I'm like.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Oh, Luna, I know it could be a dog toy
and I could be like pet Circle.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
You know Connie so well though, And have you ever
used a little vet function I have actually same, aren't
they fantastic? Really good?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Because at the end of last year, Connie had like
a little hot spot on her neck and I wasn't
quite sure the severity of it, so I took a
photo and I went on the chat function with the
VET and you know, they reassured me it could be this, this, this,
but we do recommend you take her to a VET
just to make sure. But it's not that concerning, but
(02:45):
just in case, just to ease your mind.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
And I'm just like, I can't believe I'm getting this
for free. That's so great, so so good, that is amazing.
And then you did take it to the that afterwards.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
I did and gave her ointment and all that. Then
she fell in love with the VT and let the
VT touch her tummy and made me feel upset. And
that's another story. That's her boyfriend. Her boyfriend is the
vent very unfair.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
He got to touch her tummy, like, oh my god.
Okay with this. This brings me on to the subject
of the email, right, which is does your cat love you?
And number one, they love you if they show you
their belly. Don't do this to me, Sam, but she
shows you her belly does.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
That's a good point. She does show me her billy.
She just doesn't like being touched on the belly by
anybody other than her boyfriend the vit.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
So apparently rolling over in front of you or sleeping
with their belly exposed means that your cat trusts you really.
So apparently animals in the wild don't sleep on their
backs as it puts them in danger. I guess because
it's their soft belly, true, and so they guess they're
vulnerable to attacks. Absolutely so, cats that used to sleep
(04:00):
on their backs feel very safe and comfortable in their
surroundings all and exposing their belly to you shows you
that they trust you completely and feel safe and secure
in your presence. Oh my god, that's so cute. So
it doesn't say like, you know, touching it and thinking
you know.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Yeah, like rubbing it and putting your face on it
getting injured.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Yes, okay, the other one number two, yep. The other
thing that cats do to show you that they love
you is they need.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Connie loves needing needing.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Oh that makes me happy. Baking what are the ones baking? Marching?
I call it happy pause, happy ple. So this is
of course when a cat presses and flexes their paws
into a soft surface, which is often you.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I love I love just watching say the pause just
in the air, so as they do it in the air, I.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Know, I just love just watching. I'm like, wow, so cute.
This apparently is carried over from kitten hood, where kittens Okay,
so this is really cool. Kittens need on them to
stimulate the milk, and so they've learned that and then
they just keep doing it. But so cute. They continue
as adults as sign as affection and contentment. Oh. Some
(05:11):
people say it's the ultimate display of love.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Oh that makes me so happy because Connie loves loves
her little baking cookies.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
See, Bluebell doesn't do that very much. When she does it,
she does it really frantically. Oh really, whereas Blossom does
it all the time.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
I love how their personalities are so different, so different.
I love that. Okay. Another thing they're going to do
to show you that they love you is they're going
to bring you presents. Does Connie bring you present? Like?
What like toys mice?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Not the dead mice, but she does bring me her
toy mice and what else? Oh, she brings random things
to me, Like even this morning when I woke up,
her little unicorn toy was in the bedroom and her
little bird toy was actually on my bed.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Oh, she brought it to you.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
So even when I get home today, her little bird
will either be on the bed in the bedroom or
near her food.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Can you let me know where it's where? I will, absolutely,
I will because I need to know. Definitely. Okay, this
one is surprising. They give you love bites what so
apparently it's a sign of affection because they mouth each other.
I'm doing because that's what that's what mouth each other
MEANSUF Like, so bite each other, but it doesn't hurt them.
(06:28):
They do it to each other as a sign of love,
but because they've got thicker feline skin, it doesn't hurt them.
Oh I see. I mean they think that our skin
is think as well, and so they're like, I'm gonna
mouth you, let me mouth you. So I don't really
(06:48):
know what the difference then is between biting and mouthing,
because sometimes it's just a bite.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Yeah. I really hope that the bites that Connie gives
me are out of love love bites. I really do hope.
But I feel like she's not mouthing them. I feel
like she really means that.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Feel like she's biting. Yeah, it feels more like a bite. Yeah.
This is one that you know that I really love.
And again I get this a lot with Blossom. It's
called bunting, which I've never heard of, but they bunt
on your face. So that's when they like rub their
face when they bump it on your face and your
hand and everything. Yeah, and they're like, now, I love it.
So it says not only is the bunting I love
(07:26):
that word a pleasure, a pleasant form of affection for
us to receive, it's also a physiological stress release for cats.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Really. Yeah, because Connie loves doing that when I get
home or when I wake up, the first thing she does,
and I love how forceful she is with it. Yes,
Like she fully bumps my hand and then she does
her funny little purr because she doesn't purr properly, but
that's why I love her. And she does that, but
it's so forceful.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Yeah, and I love it. So it says here that
they're actually marking you with their own pheromones to claim
you as their own. Oh lovely, So I get claimed
a lot by Blossom. I get claimed daily. Yes, my
foot gets when I'm working because Blossom has to. When
I'm working from home, she has to be all involved
in my work. She's not on the desk with me.
She'll be on the floor, bunting, bunting. You number six,
(08:12):
purring obviously perring. Yes, of course. Did you know though,
that cats get an endorphin release when they purr really
and it soothes them, makes them feel good if they're
in pain. And mother cats are known to purr when
giving birth, as it is believed to help relieve the pain.
Oh well, Connie gave birth. I find that so weird.
(08:33):
I know, I know, because to me, she's just like
a little kitten. She's just so young, she's so little.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Like the fact that she had three babies just shocks me.
And she went through it all alone and makes me sad.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
That blows my mind, I know.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
And she apparently she was a really good mummy. She
took her babies everywhere they were found, all together.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Little Corney, are you trying to make me cry?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
I know?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Okay, So this next one is one of my all
time favorites. When a cat stares at you and blink
slowly Oh, I love it. Do you blink slowly on
the back? Yep, me too. I used to catch oh
my god, I'm mentioning my husband again. Oh not feel
I used to catch him and our cat Stanley just
sitting just blinking at each Oh no, okay, that's cute.
That is cute, so cute, And I just catch them
(09:20):
in this moment. That's cute.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
But I love the slow blinking, low blinking in return.
Even when Connie's not slow blinking, I'll slow blink just
to show her that I.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Love her and to initiate her slow blinking, which it
usually doesn't. But actually, apparently a slow blink is just
like getting a kiss from your cat. I feel like
getting mouthed. I'd prefer to be mouthed. Okay. Number eight.
Apparently the sign of love is that they talk to you.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Oh really, because Connie loves talking.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Cats don't tend to me out at each other. This
is something they've developed for humans, which is, I feel
fairly sort of well known. They be able to ask
for things, and they also don't tender me out at
unfamiliar humans, and they instead save this behavior for those
humans that they trust and feel close to.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
All that's cute, and that's actually a good observation. Yeah,
because Connie loves to talk. She's a very talkative cat.
Even last night she me out in my ear at
midnight because she wanted to get under the covers. Oh,
so she did go under the covers. Then she got
sick of being under the covers and was like, oh,
doing this weird noise. I'm like, you can, you can
(10:27):
come out if you want, And then she stayed there
for a bit more and then was like and.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Ran out.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
She loves talking. That reassures me.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
It says he always remembered to make the effort to
torture your cats because they're really responsive to vocal noise
and form closer relationships with people who interact with them vocally.
I actually read my book to particularly blueboll Blossom when
sit and listen to it. She's not into books, not
into it. And I'm reading a book at the moment
and it's I'm struggling to get through it. But if
(10:57):
I'm reading it to blue Bough will lie and listen
to me talk. Oh that's cute and I love it.
So this is what you have to do. Now, you
have to read your books I'm going to Yeah, that's
my new thing. You like sci fi books as well,
don't you like I do? I do.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
I'm going to mention your husband again. He's lent me
so many great books.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
You probably got them from me in the first place.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Yeah, probably, they're probably your books. They're probably the last
one that I gave back to him. I'm sorry, but
it had written on it. It's honestly in the shape
of Connie's jaw.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
It's just these teeth marks. The current one is going well,
just like you know, a book.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
What book is it? Oh? What's that author name? Again?
Is it station from the one from Station eleven? Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yeah, Station eleven was the last one with the BikeE
marks in it, so be aware of that.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
I actually didn't love Station eleven as much as Phil,
but really, yeah, I really enjoyed it. Yeah, I like
it anyway. This isn't a book. Podcast would be actually,
what book does your cat like? Oh? My god, let
us know? Yes on the Socials Socials two Girls three
cast podcast. Lastly, last one, the last thing that's going
to show you that your cat loves you is and
(12:08):
my both of my girls do this a lot. What
is it? They follow you around. Oh, wherever I am,
they are. Wherever I go, they go. If I go
in the shower, they have to be there. That's cute.
If I'm in the bedroom, they've got to in the
veget If I'm working, they've got to be Blossom's got
to be right there. Blue, but will be at a distance,
but she'll still be there. Oh, they love a shower.
They love a bath. Blossom loves a bath. They have
They're like, okay, we're all go into the shower. Now,
(12:28):
I'm just going to see him and watch. I love that.
That's cute. Connie do the same.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Connie loves following me as well. So when I go
on my exercise bike, she'll come in to my bedroom.
She'll come in and sit on the bed and just
watch me. And then she'll get bored and leave and
then come back and wait for me to finish. Then
I'll come out, She'll follow me. She'll jump on the
counter beg me for food, even though her food's full.
But that's another story. But yeah, she follows me everywhere.
(12:55):
She's such a cuteie.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Sometimes I feel like with my girls because of what
I do for a living, and when I'm working from home.
I'm editing a lot of audio, and so you would
think they'd be like, I don't want to hear this
again and again and again, I don't want to hear
this taking this um out? Oh no, better, just changed
that bit Like that is a lot of what goes
on in my day to day boring systems, and you
would think that they would not want to hear that.
They get so close to the speakers. Really, maybe this
(13:18):
is to do with that. They're like being spoken to.
They're like, it's true.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah, that's true, because even when I have the TV on,
Connie will just sit on the lounge and that's usually
when she starts to sleep.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
You're crazy. Currently, two girls, three cats. Well, there we
have it. Now we can all tell if her cats
really love us or not. Personally, I think mine do. However,
I still kind of think that they might be plotting
to kill me at some point. Anyway, that's it from
us for this week. We'll be back next week. Happy
Valentine's Week. Nah,
I hear that you are Crazy Catley best I love Cats,
cat Asket, Two Girls, Three Cats.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Gratulations begun your transformation into Crazy Catley. Welcome to Two Girls,
Three Cats with Me Jenna and Me, Sam.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Happy Valentine's Day, Week, Happy Valentine's Week, Sam. How cute
is Valentine's Day? It's very cute. You are my Valentine's incidentally, Oh,
you're always my Valentine.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Stop it, no matter the day, You're always my Valentine.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Because I will cry. I will. You know how emotional
I get. So one of the best things about holidays,
Valentine's Day, Christmas, all of that. All the emails you

Speaker 2 (00:56):
If it's for my pet, yeah, absolutely, you've hooked me.
If it's for myself, I'm like whatever. But I'll tell
you the ones that I.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Really really love. Yes, the Pet Circle one. They just
having this conversation funnily enough with your boss today. Really yeah,
and we were both saying, what a great company because
I buy stuff with them all the time.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Oh yes, once again, not sponsored. I feel like every
episode we bring up brands and things.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Can't help it.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
I know you can't, but not sponsored in anyway humor exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
But like I always said, Pet Circle, if you want
to come on board, feel free. They open. They do
really good emails, the best emails, I think, great ones.
So they sent one, didn't they for Valentine's I saw that.
I like how we both got it at the same time. Yes,
And then I think I forwarded it to you.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, Like I was just reading yes because I was
walking around the shops and I was scrolling through my
emails and I saw that, and my first thought was
I love how they personalized their email subject so like
Connie would love this.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Or have you thought about the ending this for Connie?
Like oh, as soon as I see that, I'm like,

Bell's middle name was Luna. And then because it pops
up on the pet cycle emails like blue Bell Luna
would love this, and I'm like.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Oh, Luna, I know it could be a dog toy
and I could be like pet Circle.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
You know Connie so well though, And have you ever
used a little vet function I have actually same, aren't
they fantastic? Really good?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Because at the end of last year, Connie had like
a little hot spot on her neck and I wasn't
quite sure the severity of it, so I took a
photo and I went on the chat function with the
VET and you know, they reassured me it could be this, this, this,
but we do recommend you take her to a VET
just to make sure. But it's not that concerning, but
(02:45):
just in case, just to ease your mind.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
And I'm just like, I can't believe I'm getting this
for free. That's so great, so so good, that is amazing.
And then you did take it to the that afterwards.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
I did and gave her ointment and all that. Then
she fell in love with the VT and let the
VT touch her tummy and made me feel upset. And
that's another story. That's her boyfriend. Her boyfriend is the
vent very unfair.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
He got to touch her tummy, like, oh my god.
Okay with this. This brings me on to the subject
of the email, right, which is does your cat love you?
And number one, they love you if they show you
their belly. Don't do this to me, Sam, but she
shows you her belly does.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
That's a good point. She does show me her billy.
She just doesn't like being touched on the belly by
anybody other than her boyfriend the vit.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
So apparently rolling over in front of you or sleeping
with their belly exposed means that your cat trusts you really.
So apparently animals in the wild don't sleep on their
backs as it puts them in danger. I guess because
it's their soft belly, true, and so they guess they're

(04:00):

it doesn't say like, you know, touching it and thinking

Speaker 2 (04:17):
Yeah, like rubbing it and putting your face on it

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Yes, okay, the other one number two, yep. The other
thing that cats do to show you that they love
you is they need.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Connie loves needing needing.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Oh that makes me happy. Baking what are the ones baking? Marching?
I call it happy pause, happy ple. So this is
of course when a cat presses and flexes their paws
into a soft surface, which is often you.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I love I love just watching say the pause just
in the air, so as they do it in the air, I.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Know, I just love just watching. I'm like, wow, so cute.
This apparently is carried over from kitten hood, where kittens Okay,

Speaker 1 (05:17):
See, Bluebell doesn't do that very much. When she does it,
she does it really frantically. Oh really, whereas Blossom does

Speaker 2 (05:25):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (05:26):

her little unicorn toy was in the bedroom and her

Speaker 2 (05:57):
So even when I get home today, her little bird

near her food.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Can you let me know where it's where? I will, absolutely,

apparently it's a sign of affection because they mouth each other.
I'm doing because that's what that's what mouth each other
MEANSUF Like, so bite each other, but it doesn't hurt them.
(06:28):
They do it to each other as a sign of love,
but because they've got thicker feline skin, it doesn't hurt them.
Oh I see. I mean they think that our skin
is think as well, and so they're like, I'm gonna
mouth you, let me mouth you. So I don't really
(06:48):
know what the difference then is between biting and mouthing,
because sometimes it's just a bite.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Yeah. I really hope that the bites that Connie gives
me are out of love love bites. I really do hope.
But I feel like she's not mouthing them. I feel
like she really means that.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Feel like she's biting. Yeah, it feels more like a bite. Yeah.
This is one that you know that I really love.
And again I get this a lot with Blossom. It's
called bunting, which I've never heard of, but they bunt

her funny little purr because she doesn't purr properly, but
that's why I love her. And she does that, but
it's so forceful.
Speaker 1 (07:51):

that cats get an endorphin release when they purr really
and it soothes them, makes them feel good if they're
in pain. And mother cats are known to purr when
giving birth, as it is believed to help relieve the pain.
Oh well, Connie gave birth. I find that so weird.
(08:33):
I know, I know, because to me, she's just like
a little kitten. She's just so young, she's so little.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Like the fact that she had three babies just shocks me.
And she went through it all alone and makes me sad.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
That blows my mind, I know.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
And she apparently she was a really good mummy. She
took her babies everywhere they were found, all together.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Little Corney, are you trying to make me cry?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
I know?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Okay, So this next one is one of my all
time favorites. When a cat stares at you and blink
slowly Oh, I love it. Do you blink slowly on
the back? Yep, me too. I used to catch oh
my god, I'm mentioning my husband again. Oh not feel
I used to catch him and our cat Stanley just
sitting just blinking at each Oh no, okay, that's cute.
That is cute, so cute, And I just catch them
(09:20):
in this moment. That's cute.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
But I love the slow blinking, low blinking in return.
Even when Connie's not slow blinking, I'll slow blink just
to show her that I.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Love her and to initiate her slow blinking, which it
usually doesn't. But actually, apparently a slow blink is just
like getting a kiss from your cat. I feel like
getting mouthed. I'd prefer to be mouthed. Okay. Number eight.
Apparently the sign of love is that they talk to you.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Oh really, because Connie loves talking.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Cats don't tend to me out at each other. This
is something they've developed for humans, which is, I feel
fairly sort of well known. They be able to ask
for things, and they also don't tender me out at
unfamiliar humans, and they instead save this behavior for those
humans that they trust and feel close to.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
All that's cute, and that's actually a good observation. Yeah,
because Connie loves to talk. She's a very talkative cat.
Even last night she me out in my ear at
midnight because she wanted to get under the covers. Oh,
so she did go under the covers. Then she got
sick of being under the covers and was like, oh,
doing this weird noise. I'm like, you can, you can
(10:27):
come out if you want, And then she stayed there
for a bit more and then was like and.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Ran out.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
She loves talking. That reassures me.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
It says he always remembered to make the effort to
torture your cats because they're really responsive to vocal noise
and form closer relationships with people who interact with them vocally.
I actually read my book to particularly blueboll Blossom when
sit and listen to it. She's not into books, not
into it. And I'm reading a book at the moment
and it's I'm struggling to get through it. But if
(10:57):
I'm reading it to blue Bough will lie and listen
to me talk. Oh that's cute and I love it.
So this is what you have to do. Now, you
have to read your books I'm going to Yeah, that's
my new thing. You like sci fi books as well,
don't you like I do? I do.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
I'm going to mention your husband again. He's lent me
so many great books.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
You probably got them from me in the first place.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Yeah, probably, they're probably your books. They're probably the last
one that I gave back to him. I'm sorry, but
it had written on it. It's honestly in the shape
of Connie's jaw.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
It's just these teeth marks. The current one is going well,
just like you know, a book.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
What book is it? Oh? What's that author name? Again?
Is it station from the one from Station eleven? Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yeah, Station eleven was the last one with the BikeE
marks in it, so be aware of that.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
I actually didn't love Station eleven as much as Phil,
but really, yeah, I really enjoyed it. Yeah, I like
it anyway. This isn't a book. Podcast would be actually,
what book does your cat like? Oh? My god, let
us know? Yes on the Socials Socials two Girls three
cast podcast. Lastly, last one, the last thing that's going
to show you that your cat loves you is and
(12:08):
my both of my girls do this a lot. What
is it? They follow you around. Oh, wherever I am,
they are. Wherever I go, they go. If I go
in the shower, they have to be there. That's cute.
If I'm in the bedroom, they've got to in the
veget If I'm working, they've got to be Blossom's got
to be right there. Blue, but will be at a distance,
but she'll still be there. Oh, they love a shower.
They love a bath. Blossom loves a bath. They have
They're like, okay, we're all go into the shower. Now,
(12:28):
I'm just going to see him and watch. I love that.
That's cute. Connie do the same.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Connie loves following me as well. So when I go
on my exercise bike, she'll come in to my bedroom.
She'll come in and sit on the bed and just
watch me. And then she'll get bored and leave and
then come back and wait for me to finish. Then
I'll come out, She'll follow me. She'll jump on the
counter beg me for food, even though her food's full.
But that's another story. But yeah, she follows me everywhere.
(12:55):
She's such a cuteie.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Sometimes I feel like with my girls because of what
I do for a living, and when I'm working from home.
I'm editing a lot of audio, and so you would
think they'd be like, I don't want to hear this
again and again and again, I don't want to hear
this taking this um out? Oh no, better, just changed
that bit Like that is a lot of what goes
on in my day to day boring systems, and you
would think that they would not want to hear that.
They get so close to the speakers. Really, maybe this
(13:18):
is to do with that. They're like being spoken to.
They're like, it's true.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah, that's true, because even when I have the TV on,
Connie will just sit on the lounge and that's usually
when she starts to sleep.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
You're crazy. Currently, two girls, three cats. Well, there we
have it. Now we can all tell if her cats
really love us or not. Personally, I think mine do. However,
I still kind of think that they might be plotting
to kill me at some point. Anyway, that's it from
us for this week. We'll be back next week. Happy
Valentine's Week. Nah,
