Cat Buckaroo

Occasionally, when I go upstairs and see Jimmy the cat asleep, I like to play cat buckaroo - a game that requires both a steady hand and an understanding of the complex dynamic underpinnings of a cat's psyche. The game is quite straightforward, you simply pile things on top of a cat until it gets pissed off and shakes everything off. I'm really bad at the game - the best I've ever managed is three things - a sock, a TV remote control and a watch. The sock was easy, even the tv remote went unchallenged and the watch barely raised an eyebrow. But I got cocky, I clearly thought that I was some sort of cat buckaroo master, that if there was some sort of cat buckaroo world championship I'd be a dead cert for the title. As I put an empty bottle of mineral water on Jimmy's head I realised how wrong I was. Clearly I'm not a cat buckaroo master at all, I'm actually a bit rubbish at it. I really sbould learn to walk before I can run, and can have any hope of competing with these people.

I didn't know this game existed. All my cats are dead. Feel like I have missed my calling.
