Cocoa answers the question about human pets rising late and staying home.

"Dear Cocoa,

I am a learned feline with plenty of experience and wild living under my collar; however, I am now the object of much pampering from a human pet I recently adopted.  The thing that confuses me is this:  For several days in a row, my pet will rise at the rising of the sun, feed me, eat, shower, etc. and then leave for the day allowing me to roam and play as I like.  I usually get a lot of my mischief out during that time because she is not around to stop me.  But then there are days that she sleeps late, feeds me real late (and I am famished by then), and stays home!  I can't frolic as I like, I can't sleep where I like, I can't even bathe in public.  Why is this?

"Dear Frustrated,


Your pet has to have some rest from her busy day of earning what is needed to keep you pampered.  She is taking her rest and easing herself back into the energy she will need to continue on with your life-style.  Don't fret the difference; instead climb under the covers with her and get your own break from the busy day of frolicking and such.  

Signed Cocoa"
