@leetrikki90.bsky.social
Human (Rikki) & her telepathic tuxedo cat (Kiki). Human’s a retired writer/editor/instructional designer. Kiki’s the boss! Read our stories aloud (CAPS = emphasis). Kiki’s Cat Treats of Wisdom & Kiki’s Journal are researched. We love cats, pix & art! 🚫DMs!
“Wanna play Catch the STRING, human?”

“Cleaning out your LITTER boxes, Kiki!…Done!”

“Ready to play NOW?”

“Refreshing your WATER bowl…Done!”

“NOW?”

“Getting your wet FOOD ready…Done!”

“Human, you spend so much time ON me and not much time WITH me!”

“Want to play NOW, Kiki?”

“NAP time, human!”

“Had a bad DAY, Kiki?”

”Lousy, human! My kibble bowl was EMPTY in the center; I ate from the EDGES!”

“Ouch!”

“Saw a TREAT on the floor…but it was PAPER from a torn bag!”

“Oh, my!”

“And a corner of my box didn’t have LITTER! I had to SCRATCH to fill it!”

“Awful life, Kiki!”

“The WORST, human!”

“Kiki, you’re TRACKING wet food all over the carpet!”

“How’d THAT happen, human?”

“I OVERTURNED a can on the kitchen floor, and you must’ve stepped in it!”

“I wasn’t SUPPOSED to?”

“Kiki, steer CLEAR of where I’m using the carpet spray.”

“Don’t worry, human! I’ll be right here…washing my SOCKS!”

“Kiki’s Journal #28: I’m quite FLOOFY, plus I groom a lot. But I don’t often have a HAIRBALL. My human feeds me special KIBBLE to help me digest the fur. But when I DO have one, she goes to DEFCON 1…cleaning the mess and brushing my coat. So I like to HIDE it, and she can’t upset ‘til much later!”

“Kiki, you don’t care what ANYONE thinks of you…including ME!”

“Right, human.”

“But your aloofness makes me think of you MORE!”

“And you’re thinking of me NOW?”

“Yes, Kiki…I’m thinking of ways I can be more peaceful like YOU!”

“First, human, stop CARING what anyone thinks of you…including ME!”

“Kiki, don’t go into the CLOSET!”

“The DOOR’S open, human! It’s an engraved invitation to EXPLORE!”

“I need to ASK you to stay out of there!”

“You NEED to ask? Go on and ASK me, then!”

“I NEED you to not go in there, Kiki!”

“I need YOU not to need so much, human! Start focusing on what I need!”

“Human, you there? I want TREATS!”

(with background music) “Human is in the…BATHROOM. Please hold…Your human LOVES you! Show you love HER! Don’t bite or scratch!…Your needs are IMPORTANT! Continue to hold…Kiki, your VET…“

“I HATE when human puts me on telepathic hold—but I LOVE The Beatles music!”

“Human, am I the CUTEST kitty in the known universe?”

“Yes, you are, Kiki!”

“The SMARTEST?”

“Yes, you are!”

“The FLOOFIEST?”

“Yes, you are!”

“The CLEVEREST?”

“Kiki, don’t ask me any QUESTIONS if you know all the ANSWERS!”

“DOUBLE-CHECKING, human!…Now, should we ask the REST of the universe?”

“Kiki’s Journal #27: My treats are addictive morsels that I can—no, I MUST—have! My human gives me some a few times a day so I’ll be NICE to her…which is almost NEVER! Actually, it stimulates my APPETITE when she wants me to eat. But don’t mention those gooey treats in a tube—not for ME, thank you!”
November 25, 2025 at 9:17 PM
“Human, I want a VIRTUAL assistant to give me treats if I ask for them…”

“I do that, Kiki! And I’m REAL!”

“…and a ROBOT to pet me…”

“I do that! And I’m HUMAN!”

“…and an A.I. bot to prepare wet food!”

“Kiki, you want machines—not ME?”

“Then DON’T buy me that stuff! I’ll have no choice BUT you!”
November 25, 2025 at 7:19 PM
“Human, where’s the WET FOOD I was eating?”

“Kiki, I put it in a BAG ’til you’re ready!”

“I’m ready NOW!”

”Taking it OUT.”

(sniffs it) “Changed my MIND!”

“Putting it AWAY.”

“On SECOND thought, I want a bite!”

“Taking it OUT.”

“Maybe NOT!”

“Putting it AWAY, Kiki.”

“On THIRD thought, human…”

“Kiki, we celebrate THANKSGIVING this week! I’M thankful YOU’RE in my life, What about YOU?”

“No thanks, human!”

“You mean you’re not thankful for ME?”

“Nope! Why would I thank YOU?”

“Kiki, you’re a selfish, spoiled, BRAT CAT—but maybe I’m PARTLY responsible.”

“And I thank you for THAT, human!”
November 25, 2025 at 12:47 PM
“Kiki, tell me before you cause MISCHIEF!”

“OK, human…I‘ll swat PAPERS off your desk.”

“Lemme HIDE them!”

“Then I’ll move the STRING so you‘ll trip over it.”

“I’ll put it AWAY!”

“Then I’ll rip this CATALOG!”

“Kiki…You’ll do all THAT?”

“No, human! The best mischief is making you THINK I will!”

“Kiki’s Journal #26: I love the PAPER BAGS my human gives me. (She switched me to a LOW-BOX diet, so now I’m mostly a bag kitty!) With a bag, I can lie on it, scratch, chew or sniff ‘nip inside it—even CRAWL in it if I fit! Bags feel WARM and comfy, and I like that CRINKLY sound as I roll on them!”
November 24, 2025 at 8:53 PM
“Human, did you just…LICK your fingers?”

“So much GREASE on this fried chicken, Kiki!”

(later) “Did you just…EAT the potato chip you dropped?”

“Three-second rule!”

(later) “You’re napping in the CHAIR, human!…You’re getting to be like ME!”

“You’re SILLY, Kiki! I DRANK too much catnip leaf tea!”
November 24, 2025 at 6:36 PM
“Kiki, time to RANK my 9 cats I’ve lived with!”

“I hate AWARDS season, human! I never WIN!”

“My #1 cat THIS year is the one who never LISTENED—“

“COULD be me!”

“—who I could never PICK UP—“

“Toes CROSSED!”

“—and who WOKE me up last night. The winner is…KIKI!”

“Yay ME! Do I get TREATS, human?”
November 24, 2025 at 3:52 PM
“Kiki, I bought two new food FLAVORS…TASTE them!”

(sniffs) “NOPE, human!”

“Feel OVERWHELMED?”

“Nope!”

“Feel UNDERWHELMED?”

“Nope…I feel WHELMED that you want me to eat what I told you I HATED!”

“I can’t remember EVERYTHING you say, Kiki!”

“Then you’ll remember THIS, human!” (overturns dishes)
November 24, 2025 at 1:14 PM
“Kiki, ANSWER me…Where ARE you?”

“Where you won’t FIND me, human!”

“I know ALL your hideouts! You’re not in ANY of them!”

“I’m not HIDING…I’m CAMOUFLAGED!”

“THERE you are! I walked past you the FIRST time!”

“Plus the second, third, fourth…Your eyes DECEIVED you, human!“

“And you HELPED, Kiki!”
November 23, 2025 at 9:06 PM
“What a POSE, Kiki! Gotta take a PHOTO!”

“Human, you ALWAYS have the phone—whether you’re WITH me or taking my PIX!”

“It’s an important PART of me!”

“I’M important too! Don’t let that phone come BETWEEN us!”

“I put it AWAY, Kiki!”

“Now, human, pet me with your FULL attention…Ain’t I WORTH it?”
November 23, 2025 at 6:21 PM
“Human’s THINKING too loud! You’re NOISY!”

“Kiki, I need to get a song—an EARWORM—out my head!”

“I had ear MITES once. You need DROPS for your worm?”

“No…a new song to NEUTRALIZE it!”

“Hurry, human! I can’t STAND it!”

“THAT’S the title of the earworm song, Kiki! You made me think of it AGAIN!”
November 23, 2025 at 3:48 PM
“What’s THAT, human?”

“It’s a QUIZ: ‘Questions for Cat Owners.’ Are you:
Patient? Yes! Kind? Yes! Grateful? Yes! Fun? Yes!…Wait, this is called ‘Questions for Cat Owners to Ask Their CATS’! Kiki, are you PATIENT?”

“I want treats NOW, human!”

“Guess I already know YOUR answers, Kiki! No, no, no…”
November 23, 2025 at 12:58 PM
“Just STEPPED in your wet food dish, Kiki!…Scraping it off my SHOE!”

“Human, NO!”

“I didn’t watch where I was GOING! Are you…OK?”

(sigh) “I gotta GRIEVE for my food I loved dearly.”

“There’s MORE, Kiki! Let me put some of it in a new DISH!”

“Don’t BOTHER, human! It ain’t like I’m gonna EAT it.”
November 22, 2025 at 9:20 PM
“Human did a GOOD thing last night—moving your PILLOW to the foot of the bed.”

“To see if I slept BETTER there, Kiki…I DID!”

“Now, I’LL reign at the top of the bed…instead of being banished at your FEET!”

“With the new way, Kiki, you’ll STILL be at my feet!”

“Wait, human…Lemme SLEEP on that!”
November 22, 2025 at 7:16 PM
“Kiki, you’re ZOOMING—from table to couch to chair to cat tree…in 10 SECONDS! Why?”

“Your doctor wants you EXERCISING more. So, I‘ll be your TRAINER!”

“Or…maybe it’s because you just took a big DUMP?”

“No DIFFERENCE, human! Ain’t no cat tree HIGH enough…ain’t no litter box DEEP enough! Let’s GO!”
November 22, 2025 at 4:01 PM
“Kiki, betting on online SPORTS?”

“Human, you say I’m lucky when you ADOPTED me. So I‘m testing the theory with $20!”

“I meant lucky you have a HOME—not lucky at EVERYTHING!”

“Well, the game’s OVER…and I lost!”

”You’re lucky I’m not MAD at you for wasting my money, Kiki!”

“You BET I am, human!”
