cat and dog speak
Why don’t you stay home and play? The dog asked.
I explained the correlation between working and money.
You cannot eat money! Said the cat.
No, but money buys your kibble, I said.
The cat stuck out her tongue.
I don’t need food! Said the dog.
I need you to stay home and pet me.
I need to be part of the family.
We do not need you working.
I want her to work said the cat.
The dog was surprised.
I saw it in his eyes.
Why? Asked the dog.
She just stuck out her tongue at me said the cat.
So the cat is an interrupter and a liar.
Who knew?
