Humans. 
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again.  I don’t get them.
So you TRY and be helpful around the house,
and you are told “NO!”  OK. OK.  I won’t lend a paw again.  
Case in point.  My human finishes her supper.  She leaves the table.  I see this as a PERFECT opportunity to help
clean off any crumbs that may be left on the table.  I’m JUST being thoughtful!  I put my two paws on a chair and proceed to
lick the table clean.  Until my human
turns around and spots me and says “Viktor – I am QUITE capable of cleaning off
the table. So STOP it.”
I get the same response when I am helping
my brothers to clean any stray crumbs – or yoghurt remnants on their chin –
after we have all shared the almost empty yoghurt container each morning.  Again. 
I am just helping.  But my
incessant licking drives my human wild – and although Frodo will often tell me
to bug off – Paxton sadly obliges.  All
the time.  Until my human tells me to
stop.  I can’t help it.  Licking is fun.
Hey. 
I just had an idea.  Maybe I could work for the Timex watch company! 
Remember that ad “It takes a licking and keeps on ticking?”  I could be their poster child.  Who do I call?????  Might as well get paid for doing something I
love to do!! Oh I am just FULL of good ideas! 
Gotta love me.
