Maybe the cats need to get counseling and just deal with it...

read the headline and went HUH and then WTF.

We have millions of people today with mental issues, no common sense, or just plain stupid with too much time on their hands,.

Next time my little cat claws me, I’m going to shove a garlic dill pickle up her butt and see how she likes it.

If I structured my day around not scaring the cat, we’d die of starvation within a month. Everything freaks him out, especially shopping bags. I’m on crutches after foot surgery a couple days ago. As soon as I pick up a crutch, he becomes a cucumber-cat with eyes the size of golf balls and takes off in sheer terror. Sorry, animal kooks. I’m the boss and the cat better get used to it — one of these years.

After 10 days of shooting a pill down my cat's throat with a special syringe, he isn't too thrilled to see me opening the medicine bottle...

I, for one, will be stopping on my way home from work to buy a cucumber. I will then use it to scare my
cat.
