As we all know, readership is down for newspapers across the country. I am sorry, let me correct that statement: HUMAN readership is down. However, I have returned from an unsanctioned fact finding tour of all the major American cities that are across the Mississippi River from another major American city in Minnesota, and I have found startling evidence that proves that cat readership of the New York Times is at its highest point in the history of keeping track of which newspaper cats read.Here is indisputable photographic proof that cats who read newspapers choose the New York Times. Or, at least, that cats who choose to curl up on newspapers choose the New York Times. Or, at the very least, that this cat is on top of a section of the New York Times.
Groundbreaking, I know.

Dear Frank--
Work on your spelling and typing. It was a pleasure to see you, but I am not taking you birding with me. I think we would be at cross purposes.

Dear Frank--
Have some self-respect. You nap on the NY Times for Pete's sake--LEARN HOW TO SPELL. Do not fall into that mediocre trap of thinking, "Well, I spell okay for a cat." You are better than that. Really.
Please tell your people that we miss them, too. Also, tell them that we look forward to seeing them soon. Lastly, please tell your man, thanks for the comedy bits he sent via the electronic mail.
Oh, and, no, I am still not taking you birding with me.
Sorry, bud.
I remain
Your friend,

Uncle Tony of them, I can spell just fine but I ain't never seen no pic of little me on your blog. What is your deal of them? And did you ever stop lying on your cat allergy meds and actually eat them?
I miss you all the time and wonder if you still miss me like crazy?

Jammy Princess (of them)--
I have heard that you have been a very naughty cat. Please stop. It is unbecoming of a feline as well-bred and stylish as yourself. Please use a better forum to air your grievances and petty jealousies, such as Facebook or a blog.
Also, the "laying in" refers to stocking up, as opposed to "lying in," which is of course okay if it's a pool, but not too pleasant, I imagine, if it's just dusty allergy meds.
I hope that clears up any confusion about my activities over the last fortnight, and, I promise, if your Mommy (of them) will shoot me a digipic over the Internets, I will post a picture of you. But don't go telling every cat you know...I don't want this to become some kind of cat fancy blog.
