I am reading Reservoir Cats, True Tales and Cat's Eye Views from Squirt, by Pamela Ashworth. It is written as if Squirt the cat is telling the stories....it is just a piece of lighthearted fun to read. He is the runt of the litter and to make sure he is not chosen to go to a new home, he half starves himself till no one will choose him.
When the other kitties have new homes and he knows he is going to stay home with his mother and the Staff as he calls the owners, he writes:
They really don't know what they have let themselves in for,
Soon it will be time to let my inner lunatic run free.
I don't know why, but that just struck me so funny. Just what I needed to lighten the day.
