Shelly Yokum Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 The following was found posted very low on a refrigerator door. Dear Dogs and Cats: . The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest. The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Racing me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run. . I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort, however.. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other, stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out on the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm. . For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom! If, by some miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut,it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an attempt to open the door.I must exit through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years - - - - canine/feline attendance is not required. . The proper order for kissing is: Kiss me first, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough. . Finally, in fairness, dear pets, I have posted the following message on the front door: TO ALL NON-PET OWNERS WHO VISIT AND LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT OUR PETS: (1) They live here.... You don't. . (2) If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture..That's why they call it 'fur'-niture. . (3) I like my pets a lot better than I like most people. . (4) To you, they are animals. To me, they are adopted sons/daughters who are short, hairy, walk on all fours and don't speak clearly. Remember, dogs and cats are better than kids because they: (1) eat less, (2) don't ask for money all the time, (3) are easier to train, (4) normally come when called, (5) never ask to drive the car, (6) don't smoke or drink, (7) don't want to wear your clothes, (8) don't have to buy the latest fashions, (9) don't need a gazillion dollars for college and (10) if they get pregnant, you can sell their childr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I have seen a portion of that before about how we feel about our animals and it is so true and applies to our fids also, it always brings a smile to my face when I see it, thanks for sharing the whole thing with us.

Shelly Yokum Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 Judy, this kind of reminded me of my belated Rocco. Made me remember his first Christmas. I had made a ham instead of turkey, and my boyfriend at the time, decided to put leftovers in the oven for later that evening. We went and showered watched tv, and decided we would make a ham sandwich for a late night snack. I saw the oven door, barely cracked open, as you would to let it cool faster. I pulled out the pan to find it empty. There was juice dripping all over the floor, I knew then that Rocco, had helped himself to his own Christmas dinner. Pretty funny now. Was upset at him and the boyfriend for a while, cause nothing is better than a ham sandwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
