Thread: What would your cat's occupation be?

  1. #1

    What would your cat's occupation be?

    I was talking on the phone w/someone yesterday and he asked about my Maine Coon cat, Specs. I said "Oh, he's fine, no health problems but he's still a punk because he won't leave Boo alone". We both laughed and he said "He picks on Boo because he's jealous for your attention. I just remember him as being such a schmoozer. If he was human, he'd be a carnie". And it's so true! This cat can charm the leaves right off the trees. So my cat Specs is a carnie. I'll have to think about the rest of the Fur Posse as to their occupations but what would your cat be?
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Bobcat and I discussed this subject just this morning.

    We decided that Pepper would either be a stuntwoman or an inspector (just ask the guys who came to service the furnace on Friday). She has to know everything that is going on.

    Cammie would be a security guard. Just one look from her would deter the most hardened criminal.

    We decided that Willy is unemployable. He would be that kid that lived in his parent's basement and staying up all night, sleeping until afternoon, mooching his life away.

    Willow would be a Nanny or a model. She is a caretaker and nurturer, but she's so gorgeous.

    Halo would run a pest control business. We took her to our cabin once and she tried to slaughter every mouse, vole and squirrel she saw.
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    Toby: a grumpy supervisor. He likes to quietly ovserve everything that is going on around him and if Havoc is bugging him he'll not hesitate to jump his case.

    Havoc: a human toddler. Not a "job" per say but he's always wandering around and will entertain himself with anything that grabs his attention.

    What a fun thing to think about! Since Groucho loves to study with Soncat and check out the newspapers with me he just might be a real lawyer. One of my favorite after work things is when Groucho curls up with me to watch Judge Judy. He listens and watches very intently then will sometimes offer his opinion on some of her decisions.

    Hmmm....I guess Archy would be a little Ambassador. He is right there whenever anyone comes to visit, and he delights in showing off (trilling, showing off his belly, lots of ankle-rubbing) and showering attention on the visitor until they acknowledge him.

    Binky isn't suited to many occupations. He's too shy, always hiding, suspicious of everyone. Guess he might make a good undercover spy. He probably fits the "son in the basement" role, also!
    Loving meowmie to Archy & Binky (RIP my sweet boy 10/13/10)

    Rascal would be a horticulurist. I have never seen a cat that loves flowers and plants so much. He head butts every plant in the house several times a day. If you watch him in the yard he will walk from plant to plant giving head butts. We have one tall vase that he has dumped several times because he gets carried away loving whatever flower happens to be the in it.

    Filou is a comedian- like Buster Keaton: always funny and never smiling.
    Tigris would be King Artus - or his best knight.

    Jack - Housekeeper (his big puffy tail has a mind of it's own and freqently wipes out stuff on endtables)

    Bear - Bully (who will run at first sign of anything strange)

    Pooky - Hippy (he's soooo laid back)

    Cami - Security Guard (she's always monitoring the windows for tresspassing critters in the yard)

    Sabrina - Bread Maker (she loves to make busquits on your belly)

    Love this one. My Specs does that, too, but he'd still be a carnie first.

    Good one. My RB Peeka would be an exterminator, too, I think. No spider was safe when she was around, that's for sure.
