TEENAGERS AND CATS

Some may not have made the connection, but there are many similarities between teenagers and cats. Who knows? Maybe those finicky felines can help you understand the teen in your life -- so read on. . .

1. Neither teenagers nor cats turn their heads when you call them by name.

2. No matter what you do for them, it is not enough. Indeed, all humane efforts are barely adequate to compensate for the privilege of waiting on them hand and foot.

3.You rarely see a cat walking outside of the house with an adult human being, and it can be safely said that no teenager in his or her right mind wants to be seen in public with his or her parents.

4 Even if you tell jokes as well as Jay Leno, neither your cat nor your teen will ever crack a smile.

5. No cat nor teenager shares your taste in music.

6. Cats and teenagers can lie on the living room floor for hours on end without moving,---asleep or awake!!!.

7. Cats have nine lives. Teenagers carry on as if they did.

8. Cats and teenagers act in exactly the same manner when they are communicating that ultimate human ecstasy--a sense of complete and utter bordom

9. Cats and teenagers do not improve anyone's furniture.

10. Cats that are free to roam outside sometimes have been known to return in the middle of the night to deposit a dead animal in your bedroom. Teenagers are not necessarily above that sort of behavior.

Thus, if you must raise teenagers, the best sources of advice are not other parents, but veterinarians.

It is also a good idea to keep a guidebook on cats on hand at all times

And remember, above all else, put out the food and do not make any sudden moves in their direction.When they make up their minds, they will finally come to you for some affection and comfort and it will be a triumphant moment for all concerned.

A man who loves animals sent me a link the other day to a WONDERFUL web site and it's strictly legit, no strings attached. Every time you click on a link the sponsors of the website pay for and provide one bowl of food for a hungry dog or cat in a shelter somewhere. The man who wrote me the email says he has been clicking since 2002, right after he has his cup of tea in the morning. If you're an animal lover as I am or just someone who has a compassionate heart, please check out this website and click to provide a bowl of food to a hungry dog or cat. There is no limit as to how many times you can click so it would be wonderful if you could visit this site every day, just think how good it will make you feel knowing you have provided food for a hungry animal.
