Top 10 Things My Cat Has Said To Me

#10... "The dog did it." #9… "Go ask the Vet. That`s what we do,...Sleep all day and scratch furniture." #8… " It`s a bird…Where else was I supposed to bring it?" #7... "Roll over?…You`re kidding me right?" #6... "Psst!...Wanna do some nip?" #5… "You know what would go good with the couch and love seat?...A canary and some gold fish." #4… "So I missed!…Maybe you should clean it out more often," #3… "Pay attention!... For the last time…It`s 5 tuna, 6 chicken, 3 liver, and a mixed seafood." #2… " I could just kill for some fresh mouse." And the #1 thing my cat has said to me is… "Are you sure your an Egyption? "

This is not even written by you; it is written by your cat. Anyone can tell this.

Sounds about right. Ten reasons to have just a canary and goldfish ;), (and a dog) xomo!

Thank you!…I don`t really have a cat but my ex did so I wrote it from experience. Top 10 lists are fun…If only Letterman was still on.

Great write, Charlie! I have a dear old cat named Jeff. One comment I've picked up from him is: "Hey, I'm the boss around here now get out of my chair!"

Thank you Line…Got tired of throwing haikus against the wall and sweeping `em up the last couple of days so decided to change direction for a bit. I think you know how much I value your critique.
