Meeeyummyoowww! I can't believe it, but I may - I said may - have finally trained my ladyperson one more lesson in how to properly tend to a cat. Granted, we are moving in babysteps, but this is big.x
You see, she used to find it acceptable to feed me kitty treats by (it pains me to say this ...) tossing them on the carpet. But I devised a plan to 'coach' her into showing some manners: I'd hold a kibble in my mouth, allow it to absorb a sufficient amount of saliva, then place the moist snack on her bed pillow. After waaay too many kibbles were wasted this way, she has accepted that the only proper way to feed me kitty snacks is from the palm of her hand. I nibble, I crunch, and it's gone. Just like that ... No more carpet fuzz on my tongue!!

Maybe there is hope for my ladyperson and manperson after all! Well, maybe not my manperson: I fear that one may be untrainable. In fact, I'm certain he's got some canine in him. Ugh.
