penny is a little green-eyed orange striped imp. she talks a lot at times. she puts her mouse in strategic places like signals. she might put her mouse in your shoe. yesterday she put it in the the empty planter and tipped it over in the hall while i was walking mister. she brings her mouse in her mouth amplifying her yowls while i blog. she eats the spider plant and the baby spider plant which dangles so  provocatively. she scratches deep gouges in the toilet paper roll. she jumps on the counter and struts around when i make food. she yells for dinner when i eat. she seems indignant. she might make a little pond by the back door i notice just when i'm trying leave. she think of my time away with dogs as delinquent. she is an snappy imp and sweet and ornery and i admire all that in a cat. she sleeps beside me now with her paw curled under her chin. when i look over she stretches and yawns. she's probably sensed i'm about to close this and it's time to eat.
