Subject: Important Memo!



To: Master of the House
From: T. (The) Dog
Subject: Cat

The cat is despicable! She doesn't do any tricks and never comes when you
call and I've been there and I know she can hear you. We need to face facts:

It's time to get rid of the cat! Before the cat's arrival, meals were very
festive times. I would sit and stare attentively at your lips, trembling
slightly and drooling. You would play the game of pretending to be cross and
demand that I leave the area, but, whenever you cooked dinner your children
would slip me food under the table. Now, though, the cat is allowed to jump
on the table - actually physically walk on the table! You don't yell at the
cat, you just pick her up and put her back on the floor. I know you don't
see it, but, she always gives me a haughty look as she walks past me.

And speaking of meals, I have always been satisfied to eat the gritty
pellets of meat by-products you bring home in the giant bags, right? Have I
ever once failed to finish a meal? Now, I find out that the cat is being
served lobster and salmon and crab - and she never consumes all of it! This
means there are little containers of delectable snacks lying around and how
can I be blamed for making sure they get eaten? Why do you get so mad? As
long as the pet food is going to the pets, isn't that what's important?

Then there's play time. I think we can clearly see that I am a big dog,
descended from a noble line of hunters accustomed to chasing prey and
attacking it. Haven't I nearly managed to take down a few cars as they've
driven past the house? The cat is about the size of a squirrel and in my
view should behave like one. But, when I attempt to chase her, she hunches
up and spits at me! This can't be sanitary. And, shouldn't she be declawed?
I'm very concerned about the potential for damage to the furniture and my
nose.

Speaking of sanitation, do you realize that the cat goes to the bathroom in
the house? And, not in the drinking basins like you do, but, in a sandbox in
the basement. What are we going to say if some woman brings her baby over
to play in the sandbox and the cat has been using it as a toilet? I used to
police the thing for you, but you put it up out of my reach for some reason.

I'm not the only one who believes the cat is an evil person. Here's a note
from the hamster:

To: Master of the house
From: Hamster
Subject: Cat

Please tell cat to stop staring at me while I work.





Signed, Hamster, Department of Rodent Wheels

I also tried to get a note from the fish, but apparently it believes that
everything happening outside its bowl is some kind of reality - TV show.






I don't understand why the cat is allowed up on the bed and I'm not. I am
far more cuddly than any stupid cat. I think her purring sounds unhealthy
and may be a sign of tuberculosis. And, why doesn't she ever get a bath? She
smells like saliva from licking her paws - you'd never catch me licking such
ridiculous places. I often smell wonderful from rolling in road kill, yet
you give me baths all the time!

And, speaking of sleeping, sometimes I'll be taking a nap and she'll come
right up and lie down beside me. Usually, I'm too tired to do anything about
it. But, then later the other dogs smell her on me and crack a lot of jokes
at my expense.







So, not to exaggerate, but, the cat has brought the family to complete ruin.
I'm sorry I have to be the one to bring it to your attention. But, now that
I have, I think we can all agree that we should go back to the way it was,
when I was the Number 1 pet.

Yours truly, T. Dog
