Is your favorite feline a purrfect pet? Put the little dear to this test--you might take her down a peg or two.
My Kitty:
- Knows her proper place (smack dab in the middle of the king-sized bed, between the other occupants.)
- Practices home improvement--carefully lines up the claw marks on the furniture.
- Greets important company properly--the white cats jumps on the lap of Mr. Black Suit, the black one adorns the white velvet lap of his wife.
- Helps clean the dishes (sometimes when company is still eating).
- Practices time management--eats, sleeps in alternate quarter-hour periods.
- Assists with web site development by helpfully keeping keyboard warm and mouse excercised.
- Protects me from the annoyance of unwanted cats on my shoulders (by getting there first).
- Helps me read the newspaper (by holding it down firmly with a full body slam).
- Maintains good grooming habits by washing several times daily
- Provides free wake-up service (at 2, 3, 4 a.m. or whenever hunger strikes)
