How do you get someone to hurry up and feed you when you're hungry? My mother-person is hopeless. I jump up at the counter-top to try to get to the food, and she puts the measuring cup and the spoon down and stands back and folds her arms! I mean, what do you do with a person like this? Trade her in?

Fortunately, I already know how to make her do what I want, even though I'm only 18 weeks old. I just sit down on the kitchen floor, and she picks up the spoon and the cup and carries on doing what she's supposed to.

You know, it's less trouble just to sit while she's making my dinner. Then at least she doesn't slack off.
