Or there will be consequences.
The weekly routine is every Friday morning, I do laundry at my parents' place. Since the shifts got longer, I've been staying there longer, after laundry is done, sleeping till about 12-12:30 or so, then tumbling the jeans a little longer to get them toasty, and gathering everything up and going.
Tiger the overgrown overweight kitten usually falls asleep around 8:30-9 and wakes up around the same time I do and wants to eat. Normally, my parents have fed him before I leave, and I give him a little more before I go.
Well, he got up early the other day, around noon. And there apparently wasn't any food in his dish in the basement.
I was soundly sleeping on the couch and I hear this ungodly, loud, high pitched squeal. I woke up so terrified, I didn't just open my eyes, I got my whole upper body UP within a second. Not used to hearing that sort of thing while trying to sleep.
That would be Tiger yelling at me. I have never heard him make such a noise. He does have a very shrill, high pitched "mewww" but this was eery. Terrifying!
Anyway, he was sitting on the floor, glaring at me with his bright big greenish yellow eyes.
I was mean and fell back asleep, thinking he was just howling because he thought he was alone. He randomly howls and meowwwls when he thinks no one is home. But then I figured, he saw me laying there, he's hungry.
I went downstairs to tumble the jeans once more, and he all but tried to trip me on the way down, rushing down two stairs at a time.
I put some food in his dish, and he must have mowed it right down, because I walked back upstairs and re-filled the dog's water bowl, and there he was again, sitting there glaring at me. Then he drank his little heart out.
