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.

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.
