I can't resist these guys. Too funny and too close to reality.

I have a furry little calico slave whose job is to wake me up early on mornings I had intended to sleep in. I pay her in tuna.

"those animals should be entitled to just compensation for the freedom they are denied as well as the work they perform."

I've heard the exact same words by Ted Kennedy, Dick Durbin, and Harry Reed, followed by "increasing the minimum wage...."

I'd gladly pay my dog if he'd clean up the yard after himself. As it stands now, he's justly compensated in Alpo.

Well I just fired my dogs but it doesn't look like they're going anywhere. One just went and jumped back up in the chair to lay in the sun and the other went to lay in front of the fan.

I have to assume they've chosen to volunteer.

Our cat makes a living by being available for the occasional roughing up and face snuggling when required by myself, my wife and daughter.

On most days, those duties do not typically exceed a total of 25-30 minutes, if that.

In exchange for providing said service, she gets room and board, guaranteed life-long employment, full medical coverage, use of recreational equipment, has the run of the house, and gets to sleep on the job.

Pet Pay??? How about cat-staff pay? We're treated like slaves and what do we get in return? Piles of unrolled toilet paper in the bathroom, missing items from my desk, crunchy cat food scattered across the dining room. Boy-cat woke me up at 3am the other night because the top of his head was itchy and he needed a scratch. I demand just compensation for my services!

"If people insist on the enslavement of animals, then those animals should be entitled to just compensation for the freedom they are denied as well as the work they perform."

People are insisting on the murder of innocent PEOPLE, and all this lady can say is THAT?!

Geez, talk about a cold-hearted, misguided, BS-talking idiot!
