Silly Siamese

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh...don't ever say "silly" in front of a Siamese; it is much too offensive. Siamese are most regal felines; females especially. Jasmine is no exception. She would be most embarassed if she knew that I was sharing her latest escapade. And so the story begins.......

Once upon a cat tale there lived a beautiful Seal Pointe Siamese by the name of Jasmine. It was believed that Jasmine could have been a "show" cat until we discovered her pink polk-a-dot feet! A major flaw in the land of being a show cat, but in her humans eyes she is purrrrrrrfect, pesty, and very inquisitive...which leads us to the true "tail" of the day.

It was Saturday and the bed linens were in the wash, the maid (that would be me) was busy cleaning the bedroom and bath. Because the lady of the house uses an inordinate amount of tissues, the boutique boxes are frequently replenished. Recycling is the newest fad in the land of Winter Haven and the Lord of the Manor takes it very seriously, therefore maid robin placed the empty tissue box on the bed as she was folding some clothes and trying to multi-task...the empty box was to be broken down and placed in the big blue recycle bin. Upon seeing the box on the bed, Jasmine decided it was her duty as a cat to investigate the foreign object. First the sable paws searched the box for anything that might be inside, next the body went into the crouch position...eyes peering into the small cube...no, that was not enough...in a flash Jasmine inserted her head into the boutique tissue box. Very cute...until she could not get her head out of the box, at which time maid robin laughed very hard. Picture the diva with an empty tissue box on her head and the head is going left to right because she can't figure out how to get unstuck. Such a silly Siamese!
Alas, Jasmine was rescued from the dreadful boutique box...and maid robin did not capture the moment on film (what was she thinking?). Jasmine has conveniently forgotten this indiscretion, and really who could blame her...would you want to be caught with a tissue box on your head?
