Recently I developed a bad habit of leaping up onto the dresser in the bedroom and munching on an arrangement of dried lavender that was up there. Cats aren’t even supposed to like the smell of lavender, so go figure. Anyway, Mama G caught me at this the other day and promptly scolded me. “No!” she said, as she scooped me up and put me back on the floor. This scene repeated itself three times before she gave up and walked away. I guess if you wait long enough, sometimes “no” can turn into “yes”!
Last night I woke Those Two up while snacking up on the dresser. They were discussing my “problem” today, and then Mama G decided to look up whether lavender is toxic to cats. Oops, my bad!
Needless to say, that lavender is now out of reach of even my amazing leaping abilities.
