Insincere Cuteness

My Dear Princess and Dear Fellow,

Punky - as I may have mentioned before - dislikes DG and Crashy very much. So when they appear at our back door I sometimes shoo Punky upstairs so they can hang out with us for a short time. 

(They never stay long - they are outsidey cats at heart).

However Punky has got wise to this. And now when I try to shoo him upstairs he flops to the floor (as above) and rolls around being "cute".

"Look at me!" he says. "I'm so CUTE and I don't want to MURDER any other cats because CUTE!"

It does make it harder for me to move him. 

But no. This is not REAL cuteness. This is MANIPULATIVE CATTY CUTENESS.

But d'awwwww just look at him.
