CAT A LOG

Pleased with the reception of her recent autobiographical blog entry, Su Zee Lottes has asked me to let readers know that she has a hobby.

She is compiling a dictionary of terms that humans should know for partnering with their feline friends. Here are a few examples from her list.  Some entries are definitions and some are observations and suggestions.

BELL THE CAT! = observation.. Not a good idea.  Where I am at any given moment is my business, not yours!

CATACOMB = warning.. Make sure my fur is properly brushed each day.

CATALPA = definition.. The beautiful feline creature that chased a snake from a tree in the Garden of Eden.

CATASTROPHE = definition.. The award given in a beauty contest to the feline with the best-looking rear end.

CATATONIC = definition.. How us kitties get when we drink root beer.

CATBIRD = definition.. That winged creature that I watch through the window each day and picture myself having for lunch.

CATCALL = definition.. "Here, Kitty, Kitty!"

CATERPILLAR = definition.. The tabby that was watching Lot's wife when the unthinkable happened.

CATGUT = observation.. Don't even go there!

CATNIP = warning.. What you'll get if you rub a cat's fur the wrong way!

CAT-O'-NINE TAILS = observation..  It is hoped that each cat keeps from her lovely tail being stepped on during her nine lives.

CATSUP = warning.. I'm awake, so make sure my breakfast is ready.

CATTY = observation.. It definitely is not true that female felines meow disparagingly about their sisters.

MISS KITTY = definition.. Waiting for a Pussy Cat to return from a long walk with Marshall Dillon.

THE CAT'S MEOW! = definition.. A description of the beautiful grooming of a female feline.

I hope you like my entries.  (signed) Su Zee!
