Bad Boy

Kismet relaxes and shows off (one of) his very long limbs, and a few toes, too.
He isn’t often so relaxed when he and I are in the same room; usually, he calms down only after a particularly heinous act of kitteh deviltry has temporarily sated his desire for attention or his need to get into trouble of some sort.
His very long legs and nimble paws serve him well when he wants to get into trouble, which is more or less all the time. He has backed off some from his need to pull things off tabletops from floor-level; nowadays, he much prefers to get up on the table and push things off.
He’s also partial to walking on my computer keyboards, or even flopping over thereupon for a tummy rub. While this doesn’t often result in any problems, he has twice managed to send my laptop into hibernation while I’ve been working.
The most common word that comes out of my mouth is “no.” The most common phrase is “how many times do I have to say… oh, yeah, every time.”
Bad boy or not, he’s an absolutely terrific cat.
It’s been a while since I’ve linked, so be sure to check out the Modulator’s Friday Ark.
