Jimbo: You don't seem very happy to see me. Jimbo: I have no idea what triggers such animosity! Bird: Maybe it's your hat.
I first heard this from my uncle in about 1961. The good ones are timeless.
Gotta be the hat
1 – The cat doesn’t hate you, Jimbo, it hates the bird on your hat. Or
2 – The cat hates you Jimbo, because when you’re home Rose pays more attention to you than she does to her.
I about die laughing every time I read this story. It’s one of the funniest things I ever read.
OUUUUUUUUCH!
Jimbo’s hat? That caps it off!
Jimbo is left holding the bag.
I love Wimmer’s “mad cat” renditions.
if Jimbo’s not careful, Peekaboo is going to attack the hat while he is wearing it……..
The problem is not with the cat…
Why would a cat react to a bird with animosity? I’d think the cat would react by going into ‘hunting mode’, and trying to leap up to catch the flying food – but inadvertently catching the hat, instead.
Better check your hat, Jimbo.
