Waffle and Tirzah are two cats that really know how to make a dramatic entrance into a crowded room. Heads turned. Jaws dropped. Conversations stopped, except for one woman who said, "Oh my God! Oh my God!"

Waffle, a black-and-white tuxedo cat, arrived at the Steel City Kitties cat show behind the wheel of a purple child-sized battery-operated car. His sister Tirzah, a tortoiseshell-and-white cat, lounged regally atop a fluffy white cushion in a two-wheeled cart pulled by the little car.

What the heck does a cat need headlights for?

It's a DMV law that all highway vehicles have headlights......

They want to be DOGS? That would be a demotion. - Our cat has taken to running our dog out of her heated bed and lounging there herself. Now, this cat has a heated room; but is used to getting what she wants.

We’d all be dead....or slaves.

Oh wait, we are already slaves to their commands.

One could only imagine if they had opposable thumbs!

“I’ve got five cats.”

We have seven. Depending on their actions and moods, they’re called The Feline Mafia, The Terrorists, The Heathens, The Wrecking Crew, and other things better left unsaid.

I meant to say ‘’feline’’ Feline-Americans! Can you believe that?

“What kind of car is that?” “I think it’s a Catillac.”

"No, it's electric. That means it's a Prrr-rrr-rr-rrrr-rrrius."

My son just showed me a photo of a cat in a little suit taken in 1909. Then we started imagining the cats in the days of the pharohs being dressed up in little pharoh outfits.

Yeah. It’s okay; most of us on here are generally in such a hurry when on FR that we’re typing fast trying to get our post done and “posted” clicked. - We KNEW you meant “feline”, and if that’s the only mistake you ever make; you’ll be miles ahead of most of us. (Of course, we have to be smarties about it to take attention off our own boo-boo’s.)
