ReplyDelete“This whole catnapping 22 hours a day is making me sleepy.”
“That’s cose you’re doin it wrong Fido, now shaddup....”
“You’re on catnip, aren’t you?”
Sworn enemy,the best of friends; as we lay here nestled close, I have to say i love my new best friend.
ReplyDelete🎶"Rock-a-bye kitty on the pillow top...
ReplyDeleteWhen you are sleeping,
I'll eat from your litter box." 🎶
"Hey, heyheyheyhey. I got the cheese down. Leave some for me, OK?"
ReplyDelete“Grocery day. She comes in, you grab her attention and I’ll clip her behind the knees. You get liver, steak for me.”
ReplyDelete“I want fish.”
“I wish I could tell you.”
ReplyDelete“What?”
I’m too embarrassed. I can’t say.”
“That’s stupid. Here, whisper, right in my ear.”
“I…I love you.”
But can't we just....
ReplyDeleteShhh!
No, really, we could go...
Shhh. It's over now. Time to rest.
Love you, Barack.
Love you, too, Joe.
"Staring at you."
ReplyDelete"Couldn't care less."
"Still staring."
"Still not caring."
"Staring."
"Not caring."
*silence*
"Your ear's touching me."
"Couldn't care less."
"Still touching..."

”My only love sprung from my only hate!
ReplyDeleteProdigious birth of love it is to me,
That I must love a loathed enemy.”
As Pen and Gossamer awaited the surgery to separate them, one thought crossed their mind.
ReplyDeleteMom and Dad have a lot of explaining to do.
Quick! Cover the documents! Do something cute and she’ll never suspect … okay, she’s gone. Back to our plans for world dominance!
ReplyDeleteMischief managed.
ReplyDeleteIt was only when Fido was paralyzed from the snout he realized he was dealing with Felix the Ninja Cat, and his Ear of Death.
ReplyDeleteIs that a cat growing out of your head, or are you just happy to see me?

ReplyDelete"Last night was a mistake. I wasn't myself."
ReplyDelete"Understood. Friskies and Whiskeys Night claims the best of us."
"Soooo... same time tonight?"
Purr.
“Psst! Mom has a treat in da kitchen for you.”
ReplyDelete“You just want my spot, don’t you?”
“…it’s made wif love.”
*YA-AA-AW-NN*
ReplyDeleteThat was weird, Rex. I had this KER-RAY-ZEE dream that I was snuggled up to a CAT! Can you imagine?!?
Rex? You smell funny...
She didn’t want to believe him.
ReplyDelete“It’s true,” he said. “Just politics as usual. They’re all sleeping together.”
"He said,'whether we are black or brown or white, we all bleed the same red blood.'"
ReplyDelete"Great, but I hope we don't have to bleed at all."
Fighting near black hole
ReplyDeleteCaught at event horizon
Perpetual bond
Dog whispered, "I can see your brain through your ear, you know."
ReplyDeleteCat asked "What do you see?"
"Nothing."
"Okay. Calm down. If I pretend I'm sleeping all nice with the dog, no one will think I'm the one who killed him. Right?"
ReplyDeleteThe rabbits have pledged their support, Your Majesty. The coup begins at dawn. The can opener shall be ours.
ReplyDeleteMama left me in charge, Flutternutter. She needs you to unroll all those yarn balls. Now, get busy! She'll be so proud.
ReplyDeleteLove without prejudice.
ReplyDeleteThe rocks in the water were slick like a fresh licked cat, nestled unwillingly up against dunes that lay dry and sleeping like a dog.
ReplyDeleteDog, "I Love your ability to bedazzle and dominate"
ReplyDeleteCat, "I Love your ability to ingratiate and love unconditionally"
Dog, "we're talking about humans.....right?"
Dogs barking. Can't fly without umbrella.
ReplyDeleteThe moment before Fido learned to let sleeping cats lie.
ReplyDeleteIf it weren’t for that knee in the dog’s ear, this might be a perfect yin and yang.
ReplyDeleteThe knee may make it possible, though.
“Hey, psst, don’t move! Human’s taking a picture! Don’t disappoint Human!”
ReplyDelete“Human’s taking a picture because I commanded her to”
“How—”
“WITH MY MIND”
Mouth-to-ear resuscitation: You better start breathing, or you're gonna die!
ReplyDelete“We fooled them, they’re gone. On three jump up there and push that roast off.”
ReplyDelete“Uh-uh.”
“Aw come on.”
“La la, not listening, la!”
“Awwwwww!”
Harboring conflicted impulses—his superego’s prohibition of inter-species breeding and his Id’s primal attraction to Simone—Rex sniffed a pheromone and wished himself a tomcat.
ReplyDeletePlayful, intelligent nature lover enjoys good company, long walks, fine food and occasional cosy nights by the fire. Seeks similar.
ReplyDeleteThe leash on its hanger resembled a noose, not a romp in the park. Samantha would be heartbroken—Bowser's cancer had spread. The Vet waited.
ReplyDeleteAfter fighting over the same 1 square foot for a whole 9 minutes, a cease fire was enacted to make time for a much needed nap.
ReplyDelete"Wish she’d stop reading. Wait! She just cat-eared the page!"
ReplyDelete"DOG-eared – you should know."
"I’m looking at your ear – triangle! Duh!"
"IQ debate now settled…"
“Don’t tell Whiskers, or I’ll have the alley cats to answer to.”
ReplyDelete“I ain’t talking. Don’t need T-Bone barking about me cozying up with felines.”
"When d'you s'pose they'll be back from the march?"
ReplyDeleteSnore.
Sigh. "Wish I were with them."
Dog: Is all the blood covered?
ReplyDeleteCat: Enough. We're adorable. Our human won't notice.
Dog: The empty cage?
Cat: Worth it.
Canine: "MI6, I'm in place. The feline seems to be buying it."
ReplyDeleteFeline: *Just a little closer...*
"Are you awake?"
ReplyDelete"No."
"Really - are you awake?"
"I am NOT awake!"
"I really wish you were awake!"
"Sigh."
One critter is ignoring the other one and is not commenting until after the contest ends.
ReplyDeleteEven though it has a lot to say..
Just a few more seconds of pretend sleep and that waxy, furry ear canal is all mine.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteCat: She wants us to write a caption. *yawn*
Dog: *Opens eye. Closes eye.* I agree.
Cat: *Purr*
Dog: *Snore*
"She's coming back, right?"
ReplyDelete"Yes, dog."
"What's that noise?"
"Hmmm?"
"Like… people chanting."
"That's the sound of freedom."
"But is she--"
"Try to stop her."
There would be a time for fighting later. Now, they agreed to rest.
ReplyDeleteYo, why you pretend sleeping on the squirrel? You stir out, I'm gonna get him. Cannot keep him from me, y'all!

ReplyDelete12 years. That’s how long I have loved you. They said we were too different. It wouldn’t last. What did they know? Farewell, my angel.
