Special Delivery Cats

Two days late on the cats.
Today no phone call.
What do I do?
We can distribute the wealth
With San Francisco cats.
That’s how it works.
I’ve never been in another country.
Can you show me a photograph
Before you go?
Special delivery.
That’s how it always is with cats.

This one strikes me as funny, I'm not sure if that was your intent, but I picture a man with 20 cats at his feet waiting for UPS.

It strikes me as funny, too, Les, because I love cats and the main reason I love cats is that they are so much unlike humans.

Thanks for stopping by.

Peter

Maybe they are a lot like humans.. Snobbish, narcisistic, no redeaming social value, vain, stupid, and useless.

But:

Ever try to make a tennis racket out of a human?

We have cats, cause they keep rattlesnakes away.. by eating the mice that snakes would have for dinner. Coyotes like cats. Fried, over rice, between two slices of rye, cold or most other ways. So there is a constant turnover of feline at the 210.

I do admit I enjoyed the thought of fedexing an old barn wise tom to someone in the city. When they open the box, i't'd make a great movie scene.
