Cat lover, but NOT ALF style |
Now long time readers of this e-zine know that I love cats.
No, not the way that furry Melmacian claimed to on TV.
I honestly think that, after dragons of course, cats are the most intelligent animal at least on this planet, if not in the whole universe.
Except for maybe these two characters.
The gray patterned one is named Merlin, because he's tricky.
The other is named Mischief for obvious reasons.
And don't let those innocent looking faces fool you.
Recently their owner, as if anyone can truly 'own' a cat, Nancy A. Hansen found these two fighting over the cordless phone she left sitting on her bed and decided to take a few quick pictures of them at play.
I added the funny captions.
"It's for you." |
Merlin: Who's disturbing my nap?
Mischief: Not me. Are you disturbing my nap?
Merlin: Not me. It's that thing.
Mischief: Well, you deal with it. I'm tired.
Merlin: Why me? You're closer to it.
Mischief: I don't want anyone to know I'm here. We're not supposed to be sleeping on the bed.
Merlin: We're cats. We sleep anywhere.
Mischief: True.
"You get it!" |
(Phone still ringing)
Merlin: Are you going to answer it?
Mischief: No. Me don't want phone bill.
Merlin: Well, I don't want it either. You answer it.
Mischief: No, you.
Merlin: You answer it.
Mischief: You not boss of me.
Merlin: Am too. Was born before you in litter.
Mischief: That only make you older, not boss.
"Me TOP cat! |
(Phone still ringing)
Merlin: You get it!
Mischief: No, you!
(Brief cat fight ensues)
The Winners |
(Phone stops ringing)
Merlin: It stopped.
Mischief: Yeah.
Merlin: Guess we showed it who's boss.
Mischief: Yes, we did. Now back to nap?
Merlin: Okay.
Okay folks, it should be noted that no phone calls were missed during the making of this post and the cats in question were photographed only in peaceful play.
Otherwise these two and all their kin are quite adorable, although not every cat will admit that publicly. Some of them do have reputations to protect.
That's all for today. Have a great week and please be back here next time for more Sunday Funnies!-wd.
