The Cat Tree

   Unbelievable though it may be, I am not the only one who is crazy about my pets. In fact, most of my friends share this affliction. Case in point, Trish: whose two black cats got into a serious argument when one of them got trapped in the window blinds, panicked, and they began attacking each other. She has been going through painstaking process of separating and then re-introducing them to restore peace in her condo. And one part of this is introducing new stimulus.

   The cat tree. Trish purchase this gorgeous piece of furniture hoping it would soothe the boys. Unfortunately, they didn't take immediate interest. She said she might have to sleep on it herself, and I couldn't help but send her this:

   The comments & suggestions from Trisha's friends on Facebook are absolutely priceless:  use the top to store wine & the shelves to store glasses and the cats will become interested when they realize they can wreak havoc; get rid of the giant cardboard box that it came in so they will take an interest in the tree; put some newspaper on it and pretend to be interested in reading…

   God bless our pets and my funny friends for giving me so much great material from which to draw.
