"][/caption] http://www.romeothecat.com/2010/03/10/wednesday-wake-up-tactic-21/#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed Have decided the more the staff ignores me in the morning, the more aggressive I shall be in my pursuit. When one Romeo is pushed away, the force of 10 more Romeos shall come back to claim BREAKFAST. Today this worked. Staff was not happy. But BELLY was.

I also dropped a little bit of drool on her ... http://www.romeothecat.com/2010/03/08/meow-monday-wake-up/#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed The response to our March Online Bichon Bash in honor of Bailey the Bichon has been amazing!

Stood over female staff manager and Meow. Meow. Meow. No response. As usual. Then, male staff member stared to stir. Now, I don't usually pester him for BREAKFAST but this morning he ... http://www.romeothecat.com/2010/03/04/fursday-wake-up-tactic-3/#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed Today employed my most prized and effective weapons: da whiskers.
