SUNDAY FUNNIES: ANIMAL ANTICS

Hello Everybody! Piper D. Katt here!
Weather is still an issue in my neck of the woods. Can't help wondering what happened to Spring? Maybe someone should hire a private detective to find it.
But I stay in touch with all my furry friends and among all the latest news and gossip, we obviously exchange jokes as well, so I thought I'd share some of them with you today.
Ready?

Thomas Cat wrote me, "I see red-breasted birds sitting in the sun and selling ice cream. They're Baskin Robins."

Billie Dog says, "My human taught a parrot🦜 a song. He has since forgotten the words, so is just a humming bird now."

Anon-a-Mouse wrote, "I am fond of pigs🐷. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals."
Not sure who Anon-a-Mouse is, so I can't say whether this is supposed to be a joke or if they're speaking from actual experience.
Moo-ving on...

Harry Hound wrote that he's working for a farmer just starting out that hasn't gotten the hang of his new career yet.
"Not knowing any better, the man got roosters🐓🐓 for eggs🥚🥚🥚, and bulls🐮🐮🐮 for milk.🥛🥛🥛 He soon found out that gender matters, especially at milking time!"
Harry later wrote, "My farmer friend also used his stimulus check to buy baby chickens. He got his money for nothing and his chicks🐥🐥🐥 are free."
Hmmm... I think there's a song quote in there somewhere. Anyway...

Charlie Chameleon is still trying to figure out, "Do disguised camels🐪🐫 wear camelflage?"

Gilda Goldfish claims, "Dolphins🐬🐬 do everything on porpoise."
I know she hates being cooped up in that little bowl everyday, but otherwise I have no idea why she can't sing a different tuna.

A canine friend of mine says his human named him "6 Miles", so the man can claim he walked 6 miles every day.
And people say us cats are lazy!

Gabby Goat asked, "What do you get when you pick a pig’s nose?🐽 Hamboogers."

Yes, I know that snot funny but on that note♫ take care.
STAY SAFE!😷
And please be back here next weekend for more Sunday Funnies!PDK.
