LOL Morphine!!!! That's hilarious. Ahhh....I just love kitties. Mine are my life. One is a big liquid silver coloured tabby/siamese cross who very much has a mind of his own. His name is Merlyn, and when he is mad, wow, watch out! Usually, it's just at me. When I work a lot he trashes my place, and 'spontaneously erupts' as I tolerantly describe it. Sigh. I used to put him in my room when he was younger as 'punishment' because he used to lunge at people's faces and try to dig for China, because he thought it was a game. (REALLY, he IS a total sweety now). I'd go into my room a few minutes later to check on him only to find my desk cleared off, my dresser top cleared off, the blankets pulled off of my bed into a heap in the middle of the floor, and to top it off, since I was still living at home with my parents at the time, I had the litter box in there as well, and he'd flip that over onto the blankets.....he's so lucky I still love him. It's never anything of THAT magnitude now when he has tantrums, but he will look me in the eye with his paw next to a glass on the table when he's ticked and then knock it off. I swear to the Goddess he's grinning when he does that...
My other guy is a big one too. He is pure black, and so I had to name him Salem. He's a bonafied purr/drool machine, but I love him anyway, and while he's not quite as vindictive as his older brother, Merlyn, he gets in his punches. Like when I want to have a cozy bath he bolts right in to join me! (Or, so he thinks. I usually stick to showers, then he'll sit on the side of the tub or at least in front of me, but a bath...nooooooo, he has to be right in there, so I just leave him on his own and end up having a shower instead when HE'S done with the bath tub.)
Most people say I spoil these two too much...pffffft. They are my babies. :-)
Great thread! Gotta brag about our babies. :-) I'd post pictures if I knew how, Merlyn is a total camera hog.

I'm under your spell
Nothing I can do
You just took my soul with you
You worked your charm so well
Finally I knew
Everything I dreamed was true
