Cleaning-Up

Today, we are restless. It has been a long winter and we have spent most of it indoors. During this time, we have tried to help our humans clean. (yes, the "yard candy" bit is part of this, but if they would scoop our yard more often, we wouldn't have to resort to such matters)

Chewing on delicious little plastic toys is the easiest way of picking up the house. Moses, in particular, likes the slightly softer plastic cats. He eats their head and feet.

Mrs. Jones prefers plush to plastic, but will clean the plastic if it is left out too long. Moses is extremely helpful in the kitchen, as well. He washes the counter-tops, the stove, and occasionally, the inside of the fridge. The humans are ALWAYS screaming at him and spraying him with the dreadful vinegar-water, and we simply cannot understand why, as they certainly haven't cleaned those areas lately!

Another thing we love to clean is the table. Little humans are known to leave bowls of half-eaten lunch on the big dining room platform. Moses is especially skilled at quietly sneaking a healthy portion without making any noise whatsoever. Mrs. Jones, though not as stealth-like, is able to actually get on the table and therefore taste more of the leftovers.

Our main human, the large female, is sick right now and can't really scream at us, so we are enjoying this advantage immensely. Nothing's really stopping us, and why should they-we are cleaning-up, and everyone can tell someone needs to do it!
