\*\*“What specifically are the job duties?” “Oh, you must not be interested.”  
I don’t get cat psychology. \*\*

“Oh, very well. The job duties are: open cans of soft stinky food whenever I require; keep fresh water available at all times; keep my litter box clean; provide me with a lap to sit on when I want it; pet me and give me scritches between the ears and on the sides of the chin for as long as I want _and not one second longer_; provide me with something to bite and scratch when I’m irritated or bored or finished with the petting and scritches (your body parts will do nicely); and open cans of soft stinky food whenever I require (yes, that one is a repeat, but it’s VERY important). Really, though, you should know all this already.”
