Editor's Note:
As promised in Morris Guest Post #1, world famous Morris the Cat takes over this blog again today with another cat psychiatrist on-the-couch guest post to make you howl with laughter. For more fun animal related stuff cat lovers don't miss our 9Lives Cat Giftbasket Giveaway, the Top 8 Free Cat Apps and all the funny animal videos I've been posting on MBE's Facebook page lately. You'll also want to learn about how you can participate in the ASPCA cat food drive Morris and 9Lives are running via their Live Well & Prospurr program.


A bona fide celebricat since he made his debut in commercials in the 1970s, America's favorite 'charmingly choosy' feline has launched a "Dear Morris" column to help cats and their humans make the most of playtime. Here's the second in a series of three Guest Posts Morris has agreed to do for MBE's cat loving readership.

From Morris' Mailbox

Dear Morris,

I recently went to the pet store and came back with tons of new toys for my cat, Marvin. I was so excited to share some quality playtime with him that I could hardly wait for him to eat dinner! After he finished his 9Lives Plus Care (he’s a huge fan, by the way), I started waving his new toys around, but he just stared at me blankly—I got zip, zero, zilch! Morris, where did I go wrong? Does Marvin not like playing… or worse, does he not like me??
Thank you,
Confused in the Catskills

Dear Confused in the Catskills,

You’ve got nothing to worry about. I’m sure Marvin loves playing and I know he loves you. This was merely an instance of poor timing. You see, cats are often reluctant to play after mealtime. No one wants to jump around on a full stomach... even if you’re eating healthy with 9Lives Plus Care! The best time to play with Marvin is after he’s had a nice, long nap, and if he loves napping as much as I do, you’ll have many opportunities! And remember to make time for fun human games as well, like checkers, cards—or my personal favorite—cat's cradle. The two of you will have mastered Level 5 of my “Official Guide” in no time. 
Yours truly,
Morris the Cat

  4. I found a stray kitten a few years ago and when I went to buy food, I got 9 Lives because of Morris. This is brilliant having him answer the questions.

  6. This makes a lot of sense. Our cat goes straight to the couch for a tongue bath and then a nap after eating!
