[tinksdad]

I Like cats!!! Anybody want to exchange recipes??


]I'm just teasing!! I have nothing against cats!! Or dogs for that matter!! I just won't own an animal that has to depend on me to be fed if half the time I can't even remember to feed myself. I'm not going to make another sentient being responsible to my foibles.

[BILLYL]

I don't know about that.

We have two cats - Beanie he turned 18.


You all know-

"Dogs have Masters -

"Cats have staff"

So one really does not own a cat -

My favorite cat story

The Cats Diary - Day 84

My captors continued to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from clawing the furniture. Tomorrow I may eat another house plant.

Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded. Maybe I should try this at the top of the stairs.

In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their favorite chair. I must try this on their bed.

Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body in an attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little kitty cat I was. This is not working according to plan.

There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary confinement throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the food. More important, I overheard that my confinement was due to my powers of inducing something called ' allergies.' Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage.

I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit.

The bird, on the other hand, has got to be an informant. He speaks with them regularly, and I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room, his safety is assured. But I can wait.

It's only a matter of time.

I love cats...I wish I could have one, but my Dog loves cats too..for snacks. Well, she has never caught one but she LOVES to chase them.

I have her trained to not chase her ball if it goes into the street. But if she sees a cat she is GONE. It's like she has after burners or something. It happens very fast.

I'm enjoying the pictures, Y'all keep posting.

Here's 15 y/o Flash - not so fast any more but still plays and bosses.

[Mighty Mouse]

This is Bootsy we just got her today. The dogs wanted to go outside to play and pretty soon they were throwing a fit. I went out to bring them in and heard a very loud meowing over by my van. Looked all over and finally found her hanging on to the brake line and standing on the front axle. She let me pick her up and took to us imidiatly. The Boston thinks she is his new baby cause he just keeps licking her and trying to get her to play like the other cat does. Old dog just ignores her and hopes she goes away. LOL Funny how she adopted us right away and loves to snuggle and give kitty kisses.
