So Funny

Dan - Only one job for our Dan - Senior Cushion tester.
There's not one in the whole house he's not tried out and approved!

Ketchum - Definately our Cleansing Inspector - he spends so much time hiding under the bed!!

Bagel - There's only one job for our pretty girl - Prima Ballerina. The way she tippy-toes around the house with her feet in 2nd Position is a joy to behold!!!

Mr Jones is appalled that I think of him as a butler/gigolo.
That may be his night job, but
He has informed me that he is a landscape architect/land excavator.
He always finds something wrong in the plant beds and has to rearrange the stones. He's like a little earth mover.

[COLOR=orange]Jupiter's..... occupation would be couch deformer.. because that is one of his favorite things to sit on the top of the couch and squish it down.... here is a pic that looks like him...

And just in case you need further verification of just what a "Couch Deformer" is......

Miley would be a little tattle tale (in a big corporation). She could never own her own business. She would never make it past the entry level position, but she would be the best at what she does...maybe sorting mail, but the best mail sorter this side of the Mississippi.

I am sure as pretty as she is she would marry the CEO... This is what these girls sometimes do when the others of us are working hard....

Hey everybody, you should check this out! Click here to see Ralph, a real, live, working kitty kat. He's got a great story. And this vet has a great website!

HA!! HA!! Debbie!!! That pic looks just like Jupiter..... looks like Tubby and Peanut are hard at work deforming your couch too!!!

Cat occupations - I love this!

My senior girl, Patty: Supreme court judge - very calm and dignified.
My calico, Ginger: Mafia hit girl - very cunning and clever; and a little psycho.
My only boy, Louis: Accountant - methodical and reserved.
My youngest, Krissy: Model - very pretty fluffball, but not the brightest girl around.

I saw a book once -- photos of working cats...cats in book stores, barns, etc. WHY, oh why didn't I buy it????

[lynnestankard]

SARA!!!!! You actually DIDN'T buy it! (*Gasp*) ROTFL!

Taz asked me to sign him up for laundry folder as well.
We won't tell him that he really is no help in that department. He makes the work take much longer than it should.

Well, as many know, Ritzy recently became the "official office cat"...but I think she perceives it more like Edwina's world, where MOM is the secretary. Ritzy fills so many roles in our lives

Comic relief - she always seems to know when to make us laugh

Purr therapist - I don't know what I would do without it

Queen, of course...all chairs eventually become her throne.

Artist - remember the various mysterious "mouse arrangements'?

Mom's personal trainer - that 'chase the mousie' game really gets mom to move around the house, even though she THINKS she is exercising Ritzy

Exhibitionist - you've all seen her "work the room" with that cutie cat thing, right?

Window monitor


...and most recently, she's apparently dabbling as a Shakesperean actor! (see pic)

Well, here's a link to where you can buy a used copy of the Working Cats book (it's out of print) - maybe your hubby could get it for you as a nice Christmas gift! Barnes & Noble Out of Print

Also, while I was cruising around looking for that book, I stumbled onto a really cute website: Shopcat that features working cats - tux lovers will particulary enjoy Henry from Seattle.....

Shopcat -what a wonderful website. Thanks for sharing.
I have met several working kitties in the US especially in bookstores. I met one in Mendocino and in a village near Mount Shasta. She controlled the bags to make sure there were no shoplifters.
Cats also like to work in antiquity shops. Pleases their sense for quality I guess.

i had to smile at the pic of tinky "squishing down" the couch.....dont we all have kittys that like to do that? what a darling pic!!!
