Of cats and computers

2006
I have yet again come across a cat (or rather a kitten) who seems to know more about computers than I do. Izzy (or Lady Isabel, to use her full name) has an annoying habit of trying to sit on the keyboard of my laptop; an action that I foolishly presumed was due to the warmth given off by the machine. She did eventually manage to sit herself down for a second while my back was turned, and when I removed her I discovered that she had somehow managed to rotate the screen image by 180°, (something that I didn’t even know was possible). I was unable to fix it myself as I also found that the cursor now moved in the opposite direction to which I attempted to move it. I therefore was forced to call on my more computer literate brother to fix the problem. The fact that cats always seem to be messing with my computer leaves me in no doubt that cats are trying to master technology and as soon as they do I'm sure they will complete their objective of taking over the world...
