Surf The Net

Humans have strange things they do at home in their leisure
hours...they're always "surfing."  They "surf the web."  They
"channel surf."  I just invented my new hobby..."human surfing."

I start with the Big Owner while he is at the computer.  Usually I just lay across the keyboard as he attempts a few
keystrokes...it's considered so cute that I usually get a
few minutes of free scratching.  But don't "surf" too long with
the Big Owner, he'll toss you and you'll "wipeout."

Once I am evicted I move to the lady human who is reading.  "Human surfing" here depends on your agility to get yourself between her eyes and the pages of the book.  Sometimes you have to balance on a lap.

Or, if she is lying down, on her chest.  Make sure lots of hair
tickles the nose so as to get her attention.  Cash in on your
scratching and "surf" on over to the kids.  They are doing
homework.  This is the easiest place to "human surf."  Simply
jump on the table and spread out across everything...their arms, the pages, the pencils, erasers.  Kids still think cats are super cute so I save them for last because the scratching lasts almost forever.  And they don't mind if I drool.

An evening of "human surfing" certainly can tire you out...plan on a good night's sleep.

 It was a good day.
