Pierre’s Secret for Charming Humans

Pierre: Today I am going to tell you kitties one of my secrets for charming humans. There’s something you can do that is so cute they just can’t stand it. Are you ready for it?

Here it is:

Fold your front paw over your rear paw and hold it.

Did your human squee just now?

There’s something about paws. They just can’t resist them.

So go try the paw-hold on your human, and let me know how it goes.

Oh, and sorry if your human tries to kiss your paws.

    We’ll have to try that one…though we’re not big on humans squeee’ing. It hurts our ears!

    Oh my cat! It TOTALLY works! Though last time I did it, Momma took like 4000 pictures of me and totally interrupted my nap!
    ps – Pierre, my Momma remembers a time your Mom made a joke about you hiding from company and for some weird human reason, it totally endeared you to her … I think there’s something to hiding that charms the humans too (they’re humans, it doesn’t make sense!).

    Pierre, it’s Amarula here and I just gotta disagree with you about that whole paw thing! I put my paw in mom’s orange juice, on her computer keyboard and in the apple pie and not once! Not once! did she seem to feel my paws were adorable!
