Law Office of BamBam Esquire

TheZooCrew Apr 23, 2012 09:03 AM

BamBam opens the door of her new office, and turns her sign to "Open." She gets out a notepad and pen, and waits for Shelby to arrive for her 10am appointment.

*Shelby looks hurriedly at her watch and rushes to BamBam's office*

Oh my goodness, BamBam. I'm so sorry I'm late!

Well, as I meowed to mew in chat the other day I wish to bring a lawsoot against my hooman. My charges are as follows:

I've not been given enough purresents (I was given a crinkly mouse, a lazerpointer, and some furry mousies 3 weeks ago)

I have been driven to sleep in my hooman's wheeliechair instead of my bed because she tosses and turns so much.

I have been petted, but no where near the amount to which I feel I deserve.

And I can't even meow to the last time I was given toona or any kind of treat.

I know you took notes when we meowed the last time but what would mew suggest our next course of ackshun should be?

Sincerely,

Shelby

No problem, Shelby. You are the only appointment I have for today so far, so we have all the time we need.

I agree that this is totally inadequate. Your mommy may think that giving three presents over the course of three weeks is okay, but all presents given at the same time count as one present. You should certainly be getting at least one per week.

I think we need to remind her whose bed it really is. After all, what's yours is yours, and what's hers is also yours because you own her. She will either have to stay still or vacate the bed.

Hmmm...you are entitled to petting on demand, without a doubt. That's one of the reasons you keep her. There is absolutely no reason in the world why she can't hold you and pet you regardless of what she's doing.

With regard to the treats...is there any medical reason that she could have stopped giving them? Has your vegetarian implied that you should not have whatever you want? That's something we will have to look into.
>>
>>I know you took notes when we meowed the last time but what would mew suggest our next course of ackshun should be?

I think our first step should be an official demand letter on law office stationery letting her know that these conditions are unacceptable and advising her of our expectations. We will let her know in no uncertain terms that suit will be filed unless she immediately corrects all of the deficiencies in her care and treatment of you, her owner.

Does that sound satisfactory to you, Shelby?

Oh, and I will need your mommy's full, legal name so that we can have the demand letter served.

My assistant (otherwise known as Mommy) has a really bad case of CRS, and she has lost my notes from the last two late night chats. I know she was sick with a bad virus and fever, but that's no excuse for incompetence. I was about to discipline her when she reminded me that Cuddles steals and eats paper, so it might not have been her who lost them, so I'm giving her grace this one time.

Well, we hardly efur get to meow with each other lately so I nefur had the chance to tell mew about the lawsoot. And my goodness, I'd nefur diborce mew! To think uv it!

PS teehee...why do I get the feelin' Bailey's going to Wiscatsin whether he wants to or not?

Pisto75666 Apr 23, 2012 03:03 PM

As far as I know there's no medical reason for lack of treets. I just chalk that up to my mom's being a hooman.

And yes, everything you'd meowed is purrfectly satisfactory to me.

Don't you worry Shelby, BamBam is gonna send your mom a letter that gonna scare the beejeebees outa her and she gonna comply to your demands before you can meow toona. It worked like that for my mom. MOL.

Funny thing, it's already werking (Hehe *rubbin' paws together gleefully*)

The last cupple of nights, my mom hardly mooved around in her bed an kept furry still. She still is giving me lots of cuddles & pets. AND after she came home this morning from shoppin', I got toona! :D :D :D

I'm keeping an eye on her the next couple of days, BamBam but I'm pretty sure this did the trick. Thanks so much for all your help.

Wow! I must have a leak around here somewhere. Grizz is going to serve the demand letter on her Monday morning. How did she find out already? I think we should still send the letter anyway. I may add a line for her to sign acknowledging responsibility and agreeing to demands in the letterust to be on the safe side.

Bailey's letter will be getting delivered on Monday afternoon. I will be putting in some damages in the form of love, presents and treats to compensate for the trauma of having his lizzurd stolen like that. There will also be a claim against them for showing more concern for the lizzurd's wellbeing than Bailey's. Don't worry, Shelby, I've got this covered.

Purrs,

Okay, Sparkle. I appreciate your patience. Just remember to screech really loud every time your mommy sings, too, so that it makes her ears hurt until she stops.

Meowzers! I didn't realize we had such unruly humans around here! I even had to discipline my own mommy. I was trying to nap on her, and she kept coughing really loud, hurting my sensitive little ears and shaking me up! I let her pay me off in canned food treats, though, so we're good.

Hi, Bailey! It's good to see you. Your case might be a little complicated. I think it might come down to one big question.

When Gramma meowed for you to drop the lizzurd, did you listen to her and actually drop it? Once I know that, then I will be able to figure out what we can do.

No...she had ta chase aftur me ta get da lizzurd. Den she brawt it outside ta make shure it wuz still breevin. Frum dere I dunno whut happened.She an Auntie Kaffy were outside fur awhile den Gramma camed bak in by herownself. Auntie Kaffy camed bak a bit later an Gramma asked her if da lizzy wuz still alive. Auntie Kaffy meowed yes but barely.

Okay, that's good. If you dropped it when she told you to, she could have made the claim that you gave it to her. Since she had to chase you and take it, we can clearly demonstrate that you had it and she stole it from you. It also sounds like your Aunt Kaffy aided and abetted her in this crime.

Now, Bailey, what would you like to demand in damages for this theft? Obviously, that lizzurd is gone now. I am thinking of demanding that they acknowledge that any intruding critter that invades your house belongs to you and they agree to not try to steal it from you. Further, I think they should pay punitive damages in the form of treats and affection. What do you think?

Well an not to meddle in other kits affairs, and mew know that I luff Mommy Kaffy, but it seems also dat yore mom was furry interested in the lizard's condition and not noticing that mew had been running around and were maybe out of breff. Isn't there also some sort of emoshunal distress (my new fafurite word. MOL!) claim you could make here, BamBam?
