Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for June 17, 2021

¡Ay Caramba! ¡Ludwig habla español! Lo que es peor, ¡lo entiende!

Notes won’t help. Cats can read your mind.

We need to treat the cat for fleas.

Cor Blimey Crikey mate, that moggy needs the flea bane now right champion, innit?

thankyou

I suspect the cat’s Spanish is better than Janis’.

THANK YOU

Ay, caramba, dice el gato.

I buy flea treatment for big dogs and divide each pellet three ways for my small mutts. The big pellets are about two bucks more than the small ones.

El gato es no stupido!

我们必须先治疗猫身上的跳蚤，然后才能做饭吃它

^ What Ludwig heard

ਓਏ !

Perhaps another reason dogs are better than cats. I give my dogs a once a month “doggie treat” that protects against external and internal parasites. He loves doggie treats and the one above goes down without touching the sides of his throat. Strangely he likes the women vet techs at my vet and is over joyed to visit them. I can say, “Lets go to the vet.” and he will race me to the car.

His vocabulary is limited, but he’s up on pastilla and baño.

«Nous devons traiter le chat contre les puces.»

Muy bien

El gato es muy intelligente.

Or text

I was able to translate this without looking it up with a little grade school Spanish and a particular nearby street that had piqued my curiosity. The city library is on Alameda de las Pulgas and I wondered what it meant. Now I wonder how bad the pests were to name a place “Flea Grove” but at least it sounds pretty in Spanish.

He probably watches Tabitha and Sir Figaro from Breaking Cat News on their news broadcast, Gatos de Noticias.

CNN en espanol is very instructive for cat viewers…

Appreciate translation.

Back in the 70s I had a friend who had a VW bus, and across the front of it he had painted EL Gato. When I asked him what it meant he said ….The Tick….. we’ve laughed about that for years!!!

Uh oh. poor kitty

I speak Spanish and have two furry cat friends and it took me more than a minute to get this joke LOL clearly I need more coffee today. Uff estoy muy lento hoy…

My family would speak Yiddish when the children were not suppose to understand. Husband’s family spoke Italian for same.

We wondered what we do when we had children as, like Arlo, my Spanish was rather weak and it was the only language other than English we both spoke. No children, so never had to figure it out.
