Some slightly muddy smartphone photos in this series, but this is a rare glimpse into a daily routine at our house.
Ashton: It’s mealtime? Sit right down at the table. I’m waiting!
I said, I’M WAITING OVER HERE! Want to insert some food right inside here?
You’re not going to share that sandwich? How about some chicken? Pleeeease?
I’m waving my paw over here. It doesn’t get any cuter than this. Make with the chicken!
Does this work at your house? If you haven’t tried, you should. I can score chicken like this pretty much every time. And if not, there’s always that sandwich….
Oh, I know ALL the tricks! They only work on my human’s boyfriend, but they DO work!
Nicki has similar tricks when it involves deli ham. Good score, Ashton!
Thanks for the good thoughts for Nicki; we’re hoping the retest, after fasting, will bring normal results. Really, really, really hoping. (I’d given him Weruva chicken and duck that morning, it has a high tuna content — that’s the only different food. If it wasn’t that, we’re in trouble.)
Great job on training the peep to share, it’s very important work!
Wanna know something? We’re not particularly interested in people foods. So when the peeps eat, we don’t usually beg for their food.
You are too cute Ashton 🙂 Yes, it works here too which is why we now eat in the dining room ( a cat free zone).
mom won’t feed us when she is eating and makes us leave her alone. though it takes the kittens longer to learn this lesson 🙂
oh YES it DOES work at my house too! I have numerous photos to prove it! Love, Cody
Oh it works at my house…I once started lunch with a ham and cheese sandwich and ended up eating a cheese sandwich.
Ashton my MO is to stare…if that doesn’t work I plant myself at her feets if that doesn’t work I sing 2 verses of the song of our people….
Hugs madi your bff
Ashton, Mr Jinx has been known to get up into Mom or Dads plate to take what he can off of it! He does the paw waving too. He has better luck with Dad than Mom!
Ashton, we are constantly being reprimanded to get off the table, especially Mauricio (who growls when forced off) and Lily Olivia. One of our angels (Steamer) snagged an entire pork chop off of Mom’s plate once. That was about 25 years ago, and it ruined it for the rest of us. Good job, Ashton. Mom says she probably couldn’t have resisted your adorable face. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo

Glad you got some Ashton. I don’t like people food very much so I never ask for it. Sometimes mum will give me some chicken or fish, but I usually walk off.
You’re so cute Ashton ! You deserve your ham ! We get almost everything we want by looking cute ! Purrs
Truffle is pretty good at getting a bite of turkey.
We’re not always interested in wht Mommy is eating. But i can guarantee it would work!
You are so cute, Ashton! That might work in my home. 😉 Manna is pretty good at the whole begging thing. I hope you got your chicken!
well, this just proves our mom has a heart of stone. we aren’t allowed on the table when she is eating. if we try, we get the shove, mol
pip, smidgen, Minnie, hollie
Yeah, our mom is pretty cruel too. We never get fun stuff.
Good job Ashton!

I just reach on to the plate and grab things, after I’ve wooed them with cuteness of course. William
Exactly what Max does, he’s fond of the paw waving antics too!
Oh yeah, I sit in the nice window ledge next to the eating table. I get my share of goodies.
TW is a pushover if she knows I won’t like what they’re eating. If they have Chinese food, she’s a bi-atch about it.
Good job, Ashton! Now THAT’S how to get things done! 🙂
Oooh you are cheeky Ashton!!!! If I tried that Oooooooh!!!!!!
Ashton, I do that at my house all the time, and it usually works to get me a bite of the noms! Who can resist an adorable paw wave? 🙂
oooooh yeahhhhh works like a CHARM!
The three of us wish you a VERY Happy World Cat Day!!
I just wait till they are all in the other room and I get up on the kitchen counter…
Did I mention that I get into trouble a lot?

Ashton, I am embarrassed to say my mom is still fallin’ down in lurve with you. She always says how adorable you are. Sheesh. You are though.
