I think my cat would argue that I am HIS pet — if not his servant.

I tell my dog that she’s ugly and her breath smells bad. She never seems insulted.

Phrases such as “sly as a fox, “eat like a pig” or “drunk as a skunk” are all unfair to animals too.

While the first two make sense I have yet to observe a skunk in a state of inebriation.

Proverbs 6:6-11 (King James Version)

6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise : 7 Which having no guide, overseer , or ruler , 8 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest. 9 How long wilt thou sleep , O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? 10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep : 11 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth , and thy want as an armed man.

Proverbs 26:11

As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his folly.

Hmmmm

Bad dog good ant.

Dogs are loyal to their owners (oops, human care givers) cats on the other hand are loyal to their homes, where they live.

I call her “Dumbdog”. Is that so wrong? :)

When I was single, I called my cat “The wife.” Now that I am married she gets called “The Other Woman.” If times get really hard, possibly “Dinner.”

You’ve heard of course all about how “Dogs have owners, and cats have staff?”

My dogs (can I say that?) are unfair to me. They take up too much of MY bed and try to push me out! Where can I go to file a grievance?

Yes. My cats are convinced I'm staff. They have no hesitation about reminding me when it's feeding time.
