Jasper<\/b> here! Earlier this week there was an incident<\/i> involving our beloved Food Robot<\/a> and our somewhat disruptive house guest, Lady Grey<\/a>! Everything is fine now, but I must report<\/i> on these shenanigans!<\/p>\n

It is possible<\/i> that Lady Grey became aware that Food Robot is only designed to feed two cats, and since Tye and I have seniority in this household, she would always be the third wheel. It is also possible<\/i> that this disparity came into stark relief when the humans were away for much of last weekend<\/a>, and thus did not feed us as often.<\/p>\n

But we do not deal<\/i> in speculation! We are interested in facts!<\/i> AND HERE ARE THE FACTS:<\/p>\n

At 7:00 AM on Monday, November 5th, Food Robot delivered our breakfast as usual.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

About twenty minutes later, Lady Grey approached Food Robot…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

…and instigated a vicious and unprovoked<\/i> attack! And yes<\/i>, she is actually chewing<\/i> on the blue tape which secures the ramp to the housing! Outrageous!<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

Moments later, summoned by Tye, one of the humans came along to document the crime scene.<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

And then we all went back to sleep for a while. The humans knew our next auto-feeding would not happen until 6:00 PM, so they had plenty of time to repair the damage.<\/p>\n

BUT WAIT! Something else<\/i> happened less than ninety minutes later, and it was caught on camera!<\/i><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Really? Was that really<\/i> necessary, Lady Grey? Really?<\/i><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sigh.<\/p>\n

Though it took a few more hours, the humans eventually came to the rescue and rebuilt<\/i> Food Robot! They also took the opportunity to improve<\/i> the structural design of the ramp, as shown below!<\/p>\n


<\/p>\n

(Those interested can view additional photographic evidence<\/a>, or a complete video record<\/a> from that day.)<\/p>\n

I am happy to report that things are back to normal<\/i> now, and Lady Grey has been behaving herself—more or less<\/i>—since Monday!<\/p>\n

So what have we learned? One<\/i>, that Food Robot is vulnerable to feline interference; but we knew that already<\/a>. Two<\/i>, that Lady Grey is an inveterate troublemaker! Between this and chasing Tye and me all around the house, she is definitely<\/i> ready to leave and go to her own home!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Please adopt Lady Grey!<\/b> Contact the humans<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n
