Cat Trying to Pay the Electric Bill I sat at the desk with the electric bill open to page two. The cat reached up and hooked his white paw around my wrist. He pulled it down until his pads rested against the pulse point. Is this enough, he asked. It's just a bill, I said. He looked at the numbers, then let go of my arm and went under the chair. He came back with a blue plastic twist tie from the bread bag and set it on top of the paper. You can pay with this, he said. I told him not right now. He pushed it closer to my hand and did not move.
