where are the cat prints

polka dot curtains in the form of dotted swiss light and airy, fuzzy and bumpy, minute and white polka dotted pillows in reds, blues and oranges unusual in grandma’s house; everything here usually has a dog on it She has a dog-print couch, dog-paw-print carpeting, dog apron, dog dishtowel, dog toilet paper holder. Maybe this is her idea of branching out? Where are the cat prints? I ask grandma. This annoys her. She despises cats. One bit her in 1943.

Grandma's house sounds like many I know who are pet mad . I much prefer cats to dogs lol but get peeved at the one that craps in my garden, on the lawn, in the flowerbeds - we now have ultra sonic deterrents and they work!!! hugs Jan xx

I have two dogs and they do not work, but they play and play and play - they are penned in, cannot bother anyone else or other people's yards
