The Feline Channel: Hiro’s Manifesto

One of my cats is called Hiro. He’s a ginger tabby domestic short-haired cat that we adopted from PAWS. Hiro is about three years old now. There’s one thing about Hiro though – that he likes to growl and thinks that every time I came back home or leave for the kitchen is for sole purpose to feed him – even though I fed him like 10 minutes before that.

Yes, he live for food.

Hiro isn’t the kind who nabs and steals your food at will (although given the chance that you are not around, he would steal some). So anyway the day before yesterday Nirah bought me some half-pound beef burger set from Wendy’s. Naturally the smell of beef burgers attracts Lily, Momo and Hiro. But of course, they know that it’s not for them so they just hung around nearby in hope that they will get a bit.

However, Hiro that day acts a little more aggressively. You see, cats are smart little being. They can plan and they can grab chances. So Hiro, in an attempt to get closer to the food (hoping to get some), started positioning himself to the table nearby where I was sitting.

My guess was that he is waiting for me to leave the table and then storm the food, looking for any munchable leftovers. But since I did not leave the table for quite a while, he started falling asleep… or so I thought. He could be pretending to be asleep, hoping that I will leave the table. So I did try leaving the table and get some drinks to see what will happen.

Now shortly after I leave the desk, he’s still there, pretending to sleep. So I went to the pantry. When I came back:

HAH! See I knew it!. But he’s pretty smart, he pretended that he just want me to rub him, he just stood there and look at me as I begin eating my beef burger again.

So Hiro’s got a plan.
