Fluffy to the Rescue!

When most folks think about animals as heroes, they think about dogs. Like this:



or this:



Now, a new hero for a new era. Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you Fluffy. A cat, not a dog, saved a family (including, in what must have been total humiliation for the family dog, the family dog) from a burning house. Surprise, surprise.

Yeah, Fluffy done good. Reminds me of a 3-legged pig I saw. Saved the whole family from a fire. Pulled them out one at a time.

"Pig lose his leg in the fire?"
"Nope came out clean."
"What's with the missing leg then?"
"Heck buddy, Pig that special, you don't want to eat him all at once!"

True story, swear.

More likely, "Cat's demands for fresh kibble waken family, saved by coincidence from fire" ...

Chase is a kitteh cynic. This isn't the first time this has happened. See here and here.

And they're cute. And they claw the hell out of you. And catboxes. Ugh. And I still love 'em.

Chase Squires said...

Oh, I have 'em .. that's how I know. "yeah, I see you're on fire, but how about some kibble?"

John in IL said...

LMAO. They do get vocal and will wake you up when they don't have food.

Love that joke, Ange.

Also love hearing Chase and John's kitteh dialogue. I've learned to appreciate cats. The kitteh I was feeding hasn't been around in awhile. Think it found better digs. I had a couple of cats in Ridgeland. One of them used to run with me. I swear. After I finished runs, for a year or so, I'd take one of my dogs for a walk to cool down. The dog died. One of my cats, Sassy, apparently noticed and walked with me on the cool-downs for several months afterward. It was a really ugly cat (bad skin and a crooked smile that looked like an Elvis sneer), but I couldn't help but love Sassy after that.

if only he had a theme song that could really catch on. Go Fluffy Go!

I'm thinking a cat's theme song would be an instrumental, RC, like the Pink Panther. Cats are too cool for words.
