Pet Or Servant?

Do you efur wonder what to call the bi-peds in your life?

Au, the Senior Cat in our house, is furry old-fashioned. He calls for De Survunt and De Male.

Most of the time he gets exactly what he meows for but I don’t think he’s got it Quite Right.

There are times when he demands treats and doesn’t get them, and there was this one time when they boxed him up and took him to the vet despite his cries of, “Put me down, you bad survunt you! i will show you de klaw!”

My pal Target calls them Mummy Cat and T-man. This is typical of the Fur Brain! T-man purrs at night but they don’t have fur, can’t jump 10 times their own height, or do any of the simple things we cats do.

I’ve had a Good Think about this and I have Come To A Conclusion: they feed us and do all the little things cats can’t be bothered to do for themselves like wash the floor and tidy the sofa. But the main thing is that they give us Love and Cuddles.

Clearly they are Pets!

As proof, here’s a picture of my Pet T-man tickling me…

She read psychology at Stirling University but that hasn't helped her gain the upper hand in her dealings with her cat companions.
