You don't have to own a cat to appreciate this one...
A couple was dressed and ready to go out for the
evening. They turned on
a night light, turned the answering machine on the
phone line, covered their
pet parakeet and put the cat in the backyard.
They phoned the local cab company and requested a
taxi. The taxi arrived and
the couple opened the front door to leave their house.
The cat they had put
out into the yard scoots back into the house.
They don't want the cat shut in the house because
"she" always tries to eat
the bird. The wife goes out to the taxi while the
husband goes inside to get
the cat. The cat runs upstairs, the man in hot
pursuit.
The wife doesn't want the driver to know the house
will be empty. She
explains to the taxi driver that her husband will be
out soon. "He's just
going upstairs to say goodbye to my mother."
A few minutes later, the husband gets into the cab.
"Sorry I took so
long," he says, as they drive away.
"Stupid bitch was hiding under the bed. Had to poke
her with a coat hanger
to get her to come out! Then I had to wrap her in a
blanket to keep her from
scratching me. But it worked. I hauled her fat ass
downstairs and threw her
out into the back yard!"
