Last weekend, one of my slumbering darlings delicately stretched and whapped the DX off the chair arm - without even opening an eye! Words were flung! Loudly! A cat was threatened with flinging! Feelings were damaged! All is well now, but yes - you do get mad when your ereader is threatened! 
(This is the same cat that cost me $2500 in emergency surgical fees after she decided to eat a cassette tape she dug out of an old cardboard box in the back of a closet. Sigh - I should be happy that replacing a damaged DX would cost much less!)  |
kindle kitten, when a much smaller kitten would bat at the kindle constantly. she was responsible for MANY an unintended page turn, and got me in the habit of glancing at my location fairly often. she is better now... not over it, but somewhat better
