Roger

The typical neurotic cat owner is overly protective, controlling, and much too concerned with the daily trappings of the feline world. If that's a crime...book me Danno! From the day I brought Bubbles and Penuche home from the orphanage, they have been fed high-protein, low fat, dry cat food. From time to time I treat them with Greenies, an organic snack formulated to promote excellent feline dental health, and Cool Claws, a delicious non-dairy faux ice cream treat. They love em both. I have never understood why cat owners would give their pets anything else; wet food is terrible for their teeth, and human food is terrible for everything else. No- Brainer in my book.

Lately I have noticed that Bubbles, my hood kitty ,the one who just lives for the hunt, has been eating less and less t home. I wasn't too concerned until yesterday, when my eighty-six year old neighbor Roger, muttered something about pork chops, fried fish, and Bubbles, all in the same sentence as I waved hello to him from across the fence.

"Say what?"

"Bubbles show like the pork meat?"

"Pork meat?"

"...and the fried catfish too, she just luvit!"

I am not one to shy away from confrontation when the situation calls for it, but once my adversary hits the age of eighty, I back off. Besides, Bubbles could use another friend in the neighborhood, and I am guessing so could Roger.

Hmmm....well, I'd love to take you to suck on some Hard Candy, but I don't affiliate with centrists, only progressives. *WINK* Centrists are so yesterday!

P.S. - adorable kitty!

First of all, I think Bubbles is very cute. I love his white socks and all. Secondly, I think Roger is being a nice man. Perhaps spoiling Bubbles to death a bit, but he sure is feeding him some fine four-course meals it seems.

Bubbles eating catfish. Sounds almost cannibalistic.

Oh wait, Bubbles is a girl right?

HEAR HER ROAR!

Glad to hear you are all for unification - you are a better man than I - not sure I could have done it were our situations reversed! If Hil is staying on a bit, I think she's just trying to recoup part of the $$11 mil she loaned her campaign - either that or her advisors are drugging her! ;-)
