    Or five cans. Could it be a “boarder” crisis?

    Oddly, my cat has just decided that my seat is hers, and doesn’t want to move.

    Not as bad as my “loving” cat the insistes her place, is on top of me in bed. She considers it sharing HER space.

    There seems to be a misconception as to the actual owner of the space…Cats always.

    Pick up the phone. “Violin factory? I’ve got some raw material for you….”

    From Wikipedia:

    “For a long time, catgut was the most common material for the strings of harps, lutes, violins, violas, cellos, and double basses, acoustic guitars and other stringed musical instruments,…” [Despite the name, the intestines used were never those of cats.]

    Open a can of beans and head to the sofa – you have to outsmart these felines. Don’t let them win.

    If you can’t deal with sharing you seat with a household pet, get a guppy.

    I just removed Non Sequitor from my list – it is unfortunate that such a creative man using a very savvy medium is compelled to revert to crassness.

    The ancient Egyptians venerated cats as gods. Cats have never forgotten this. (But to be fair, the ancient Egyptians also venerated dung beetles as gods. A mixed bag, to be sure.)

    My cat has decided that my lap is her territory. She will wander around the living room meowing at me as I walk through. I then find a good place to sit, and she is promptly in my lap. Once in a while, my other cat will join us, but he prefers to sit by himself. If he does, they will cuddle up together, that is until they start playing. Then they get kicked off. I don’t enjoy teeth and claws on my lap.

    My cat can distinguish these two sounds. From two rooms away. While napping.

    1. Open fridge, take out a pint of milk sitting beside whipped cream on shelf.

    2. Open fridge, take out whipped cream sitting beside a pint of milk on shelf.

    (She gets a cc of whipped cream treat from my finger, doesn’t care for milk)

    One of our papers dropped Non Sequitor. I had to get a magnifying glass to see it. He apologized but that was not accepted. At least I can still enjoy it on the website.
