Crystal the Cat here. I'm taking a poll. I pose the following question to all you felines out there and await your input.

We all can be bought for a price. Although we don't relish doing so-called tricks as much as our lowly canine friends, we will still do them for a price. What is the price you ask for...a special treat (and, if so, be specific), praise, or play? Write in and let us know.

  1. Sorry this comment is so tardy but I am a cat after all....what price can I be bought for you ask? I just have to look extra cute. I am a tuxedo cat, named Bob. A female tuxedo cat named Bob. If you want an explanation you will have to ask my owner, but I recommend you don't. It is a rather long story. What is it I have to look extra cute for you may ask...well, it is Tuna flakes. They are bought at only one store, rather pricey I am told, ah so what, I am worth it, and out of the 10 brothers and sisters, I am the ONLY ONE, that gets the Tuna Flakes! HA HA HA! I am just that cute!

    1. A female Bob ... why, isn't that clever?! Your human mom obviously has a sense of whimsy. Personally, if I run across one more cat named "Fluffy," I will cough up a hairball (nothing against you Fluffies out there, so please don't send me angry posts). Being a fellow tuxedo cat, I understand that it is quite easy to just look extra cute, as you put it. It simply comes naturally doesn't it? So, you go for those pricey tuna flakes, eh? I would certainly hope that you retain your sense of irony by not eating the cheaper but more genuine REAL tuna out of a can, as this would not befit a true cat. You must eat the more expensive tuna flakes since we love our treats to come out of a pouch, not a tin can am I right? Bravo to you, my dear cute tuxedo friend Bob!

  2. This is Pouncer again, I love my kitty treats that Missy buys for me so I can be bought for that. of course I have to wake her up by walking on her a few times but it's worth it because she gets to work on time and I get my kitty treats (I don't know the name cause I can't read but they're yummy!)

    So that's what I can be bought for...oh and a clean litter box..I like that too

    1. Oh, Pouncer, you are one special feline! You have learned the truth that it isn't necessarily WHAT you get in life but HOW you get it! And walking all over your human mommy sure is the way to go - two paws up for you! Here is another thing you might try. Just put your face about one inch from hers and stare at her while she sleeps. She will sense she is being watched and may even have a nightmare or two about monsters in the closet. Then, when you see her face start to twitch from dreaming, gently touch her with one of your whiskers, and watch her jump out of bed like a rocket! Trust me, she'll be thrilled to see your cute little face instead of whatever scary thing she was dreaming of, and she'll rush to give you a big treat. Me-OW!!

      Chow for now,
