Does your cat suffer from kitty depression?
On Tue, 23 Mar 2004 10:49:45 GMT, O J yodeled:
Hi All, I found this service while I was web browsing. The URL for their home page is: http://home.earthlink.net/~cacltd/ This is from their home page: ---------------------pasted text follows---------------------- Experts have always been baffled by the causes of feline depression. Sadly, even today, they are no closer to an answer. As a result, millions of cats suffer needlessly. But here at Confuse A Cat, Ltd. we can cure feline depression. Our extensive research into the feline psyche has revealed the secret. That's an old Monty Python sketch. Theresa alt.tv.frasier FAQ: http://www.im-listening.net/FAQ/ Single-mindedness is all very well in cows or baboons; in an animal claiming to belong to the same species as Shakespeare it is simply disgraceful. (Aldous Huxley) |

Yes, and I've always wondered - what exactly do they *do* to confuse the cats? A) Take a shower.Why would anyone expose themselves to al those mean nast evil wadder-monsters *voluntarily*?. B) Like the dog. 'nuff said C) Eat vegetables. Why on earth would any self resepcting cat eat vegetables? D) Do that strange bouncy-bouncy thing in bed with the other hoomin. What on earth are they doing, and why don't they like me joining in? E) Make the red bug go under the door - why doens't it come out the other side? There are plenty of ways to confuse a cat....

On Wed, 24 Mar, Theresa wrote: When it was raining or snowing, my uncle's cat Cicero used to look out the front door, then go around to the back door, and cry to be let out there, as if the weather was going to be better there. And when it snows here, Stinky always has to look at it from both upstairs and downstairs to make sure it's snowing there, too. Theresa One of Robert Heinlein's (the science fiction author) best stories was about a man with a cat. It was called, "The Door Into Summer." Regards, O J Yes, that's a lovely story-- the same idea.

Big sissy. :P Don't you know that greeblings can hide in soap bubbles? They're very sneaky and don't always hide in them, but even one greebling is one greebling too many, the problem is figuring out which bubbles the greeblings are hiding in. It's a very complex issue and my cats tell me that the only way to be sure is to look confused and then pounce on all of them. Stinky, apparently, is not into hunting bubble greeblings, which is not for every cat. Pam S. |
