Jackie Waffles is in big trouble with my mom. He just broke one of her favorite ugly vases.
He was spazzing around the house, like he usually does, when he apparently banged against a wobbly little stand my mom keeps in the entryway - in order to display said ugly, blue vase - causing the pottery to topple off and shatter into a million pieces.
I was at my desk when I heard the crash and saw Jackie streak by in a panic. He went straight to the closet and is now cowering there to escape my mom's wrath.
She is mightly pissed too. You should have heard the language! No one can cuss like an angry old Southern woman.
"That GD cat! Damn him! I'll kill his butt!" she howled, shaking her fist. "You'd better run, yella fella, cause you're no friend of mine anymore!"
"He can't help it, Mom," I said. "He's just a big, dumb oaf."
"You'd better keep him out of my way," she grumbled, while sweeping up the vase shards. "I'll smack him with this broom the next time I see him!"
Too bad I never took a picture of the vase. We could have had a vote on whether it was hideous or not (I'd vote yes). Now it is too late. I didn't even get to take a picture of the pieces as my mom swept them up so quickly. But here is a picture of the now empty stand.
It looks so lonely and empty I think I will find something to put on it to make my mom happy.
What do you think? Everybody loves the down home goodness of Chicken In A Biskit don't they? The MSG makes sure of that.
How about a skull? It would be timely since Halloween is coming up. I do enjoy decorating with skulls. They give the house a nice Hell's Angels kind of ambiance.
A Bob's Big Boy Bank might provide a whimsical touch. Plus, we could make all visitors deposit a quarter before allowing them entry into Chez Prunella. Or else charge them a quarter in order to leave. That might be a better plan, actually. W00t! I'll be rolling in money soon!
Well, how about that? My mom doesn't like any of these fabulous suggestions. She's going off right now to TJ MAXX to buy another ugly vase. Hmmmpfff some people!
Oh well, here's a picture of the unrepentant one himself chilling in his favorite tiny bowl. He's getting big, huh?
What? I didn't do anything. It wasn't me, I'm innocent I tells you! Innocent!....So, do you have any food for me?"

He doesn't seem too afraid he will break that blue bowl he is sitting in. Great pics.
I would have liked to have seen the butt ugly vase...make sure we get to see the replacement.
he is darling...
Jackie seems to be attracted to blue! Does he like fromage bleu on his Chicken In A Biskit as well?
Food is never far from a pet's mind. Regardless if she is in a bowl, at the end of a leash, or having her nails done.
He looks innocent to me.
Wow, my mom and grandmom had that same exact coversation agout me every christmas until I accidentally knocked grandpa's ashes into the christms good and was too scared to tell anyone. When my grandmother found out, she actually died of shock. Too bad I wasn't in her will any more by then.
Looks like you need to get a proper size kitty bowl. Our baby boy is all grown up!
Hmmmm.... maybe instead of an ugly vase you could put a giant dildo there. I'm sure it would be a great conversation starter when company comes over :)
Read my pussy post.
I will be happy to defend Jackie Waffles pro bono.
Free Jackie Waffles!
no one with such a fluffy tail is guilty of anything, ever.
Where in the hell did you get that Big Boy?
Jackie Waffles is BEYOND adorable! There's no way anyone that cute did something naughty. He was framed.
He's BEAUTIFUL!
