    This one is SO true. My two live at my shop and I go through this every morning.

    That’s my oldest furry, my youngest acts like a dog and greets me at the door!

    Hmmm, I seem to remember seeing this before.

    Beware cats that view you as nothing more than a food source. When you die in your sleep, they may treat you as one…

    I never did trust cats.

    But my cats love me. They come running every time I get the can opener

    To mine, I’m just the “Food Lady!” I found out he transfers his affection if we’re on vacation and someone else comes over to feed him. Unfaithful Cat!

    For those who didn’t notice before, the cartoons this month are vacation reprints from 2005.

    Lewreader. My next door neighbors’ run every time I get the slingshot out. (Their cat, that is.)

    My cats also see me as the heroic scooper of litter boxes and manipulator of the divine grooming brush.

    Why else would a cat put up with people?

    I feed my cats the very best, and they would gladly trade me for a tuna sandwitch.

    Dogs have masters,
    Cats have staff.

    My own two cats know their place.

    They are the queens of the universe.

    I have seen this before, but it’s still funny (and true!).

    Wiley is suppose to be on vacation, and yet he takes time to read his readers’ comments. That’s dedication.

    Mine would trade me for wet food & treats any day!

    Rose has gotten where she talks to me incessantly & follows me until I discover whether she wants wet food, treats, or an open door!

    Vashti comes to me crying in a high pitch like she’s dying. With her spending so much time outdoors this summer I know she r-e-a-l-l-y is hungry. I’ll give the Mighty Hunter a little extra.

    Sadie is always ready for wet food. Sam hovers quietly when I’m on the deck.

    Jonah is just a happy little boy who will go to the dry food if I’m not serving!

    I also end up feeding the neighbor’s cat most days because Milo thinks this is his second home. He plays with/pesters my herd.

    My cats greet me at the door when I come home from work, that’s feeding time.

    So true, Ophet has calls for “chicken”, “fish” and Temptations - she uses them regularly

    Cats use body language.
    They show you their backside & walk toward what they want.
    Translation: ”@$$hole! Feed me!”
    If you don’t get the hint they lay down in the doorway & glare at you.

    When I was kid we had two dogs and several outdoor cats…just watching the antics that went on between that group was fun

    Georgeg64 said it best.

    In my youth, I volunteered for a spell at an animal shelter. The dogs responded to attention with love. The cats responded with what seemed to be attitude. But I suspect the feline response was based on fear and distrust. Dogs after all are pack animals and cats believe that they are independant and solitary, sorta like like royalty. They need us; they just don’t like to acknowledge that fact..

    I have three cats, but I hope they don’t love us just because we give them food.

    She owns the key to their dear hearts. Er, I mean can opener.

    Actually, my cats do love me. They supplement their diet with mouse and baby bunny, and bring some for me too…

    Dogs have owners. Cats have staff. If cats had opposable thumbs, they would no longer need us. And yes, I love my owner (a brown tabby).

    This is why I like dogs. Their thinking “Wow, I love my owner, lets get them all full of slober.” Maybe their messier, but their intensions are good.

    Cats are far more intelligent than dogs though.

    How long does it take between the ink drying and a strip running Mr. Wiley Miller?

    I had heard that it’s two weeks?

    So did you take a vacation in July? I hope you got a lot of inspiration while travelling.
