Dignity

There are four people, or types of people, in the world that old Violet Crumbleruff just can't get enough of:

(1) Her mummy
(2) Her daddy
(I'd be kind and change the order but that's just the way it is)
(3) People who are allergic to cats
(4) People who hate cats

So on Oscars night with a room full of people just dying to meet her and the parasitic entity attached to her behind (ie, her tail), she stayed put under the lounge and played, somewhat crankily, with one of her toy mice. Later when Grumpy came home she racked off to the office to be with him. He informed me that he'd never received so much love and attention from her in her short life with us.

The Burp was especially disappointed. She wanted to get a good look at her belly, post-operation. The area that Grumpy refers to as "her Brazilian".
