Dear Morris,
I've always considered myself a "cat's cat." I'm a champion napper, an expert invisible bug chaser, and my hairballs? I can cough one so big you could use it as a toupee. That's why I'm so distressed by what I'm about to tell you. I've never once caught that feather that dangles on the end of a stick. I see it, I lunge for it, and just when I think it's within paw's reach, it darts away again. It frankly has me questioning my cathood. What should I do?
Warmly,
Purr-plexed and Paw-ndering

Dear Purr-plexed and Paw-ndering,
It's not your fault you haven't caught the feather. What I'm about to say may come as a shock... there is a human on the other end of that feather, manipulating it like a marionette. It's a conspiracy of gigantic proportions. You've never caught the feather because your human has never let you. If any of you humans out there are reading, please let your four-legged friends 'win' some of the time. It's great to have a competitive streak playing a board game or the ball court, but let us felines experience the sweet taste of victory (it actually tastes a lot like 9Lives). Besides, cathing the feather, ball, or string will get your cat one step closer to their ultimate goal: world domination.Yours truly,
Morris the Cat

That silly Morris. He is just too much! I love his posts.
ReplyDeleteI get such a kick out of these. Thanks for sharing them and this great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried 9 Lives with my cats yet. I'm definitely willing to give it a try to see if they like it or not. Cats are such great pets! I have two of them and they're so different from each other and they're even brothers.
ReplyDeleteAwww, I am the biggest cat person ever. And this must made my day. I will definitely let my cats win from time to time.
ReplyDeleteOK, these get funnier as the series goes on. A hairball toupee? Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute post! LOL I always loved Morris I miss him in commercials. This is a cute way to bring him back. This post made me laugh!
ReplyDeleteHaha, we always let Truffles catch the feather, just to help reconfirm her 'cathood.' Of course, she quickly loses interest when it's not a challenge anymore!
ReplyDeleteCute! Lol really gave me a chuckle to read that. There is a reason 9 lives has been around for so long!
ReplyDeleteI love these Morris the Cat sessions. They are hilarious, but we can't let our cats reach world domination.
ReplyDeleteThese are such cute stories!! I remember we feed our cat 9 Lives in high school!
ReplyDeleteHa! I am loving this series of Morris the Cat humor! Great giveawaay for cat owners, too. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHa, ha, ha... never caught the feather. How funny. I love it. This is such a great column.
ReplyDeleteI have been enjoying the cat advice series. I look forward to the next one.

ReplyDeleteI am enjoying your time with Morris and think I have read each one. Love that I can tweet and help out kitties too.
