Teamwork!

Any cat with half a brain KNOWS you can't get anything done alone. No, you need a well thought out plan, with spies everywhere.

OK, like when I am stealing food out of the garbage. I don't know WHY my mom and the guy who feeds us throw out such good stuff, but I want it, and that means that it is MINE. But sometimes, they want to stop us from getting what is MINE. So, we need a plan.

I always do the stealing, because I am way smarter than the other cats, and way faster. So, I stick Tabitha where she can see me, and the humans, but they can't see her. If they hear me in the trash and start to get up, she gives one little meow. That's the signal for me to bolt down the hall and under the bed. Bouvre runs across their paths and slows them down so they can't catch me, and Tabitha bolts for the kitchen, and gives her sweet, innocent look. The kind of look that can't be punished. That's what sisters are for- taking the blame and being too cute to punish!

When everything calms down, the cats gather to enjoy our spoils.

And that is how cats get to eat garbage! If any other cats are reading this, you may use my plan! But remember... IT IS MY PLAN!!! MINE!
