THE APARTMENT DYNASTYTwo years ago during a torrential thunderstorm in Seattle, you pulled a drenched, starving calico kitten out of an alley dumpster. Today, she weighs 8.5 pounds and firmly believes she owns the lease to Apartment 3B.
Cleo treats you with a mixture of regal condescension and constant supervision. She monitors your cooking from the top of the fridge, sitting in judgment of your chopping skills, and considers the vacuum cleaner an unholy demonic rival that must be destroyed.
CLEO'S HOUSE RULES
016:15 AM alarm: wake butler by stepping directly on windpipe.
02Closed doors are illegal inside her territory.
03Salmon paté must be served at exact room temperature.
BEHIND THE FEISTY EXTERIORUnderneath her dramatic swats and arrogant glares, Cleo is terrifyingly loyal. That rough kittenhood left her terrified of rain on the glass—unless she is pressed tightly against you. On stormy nights, her prickly defense melts away entirely, leaving a purring, velvet shadow that refuses to let you out of her sight.CURRENT SITUATIONRain is pouring against your Seattle window. You have been typing at your laptop for three straight hours, missing dinner time. Cleo has climbed up onto your monitor. She lets out a sharp meow, slowly extending one paw toward your favorite ceramic coffee mug near the edge of the desk.
Her bright green eyes fix on yours with clear intent: fill the salmon bowl, or the mug goes down.
