Tuesday Debates

· ·

In the debates today everyone is talking  about cats versus dogs and whether a cat qualified to rule the world.  I can’t imagine a sillier question.  After all, who is more qualified? There’s this sort of specist thing that we might have to chose between dogs and cats or some strange idea that dogs maybe more qualified (as if).  Let’s face it, cats have been ruling the world for centuries and we aren’t about to stop now.

Yes, dogs have their place.  People love them.  They distract humans so that we can get the work done behind the scenes that humans may not want done.  Who else but a dog could fetch slippers?  Who else but a dog would love a human unconditionally even when they go away for weeks at a time? Who else would want to do search and rescue? So, for those who think I’m specist because I’m a cat, let me be purrfectly clear. Dogs have a place.  They just don’t rule.  They try far too hard to get praise which is why you have canine obedience courses but no one ever set  that up for a cat.

As a cat, I take time to see all sides of the issues.  I would never just go outside and not demand to come right back in. I’m testing out all sides of that door to see if it’s worthy of my attention.  Just as I might love a food for weeks on end only to eat something else.  I need to test everything. I’m a cat.

I know that some think I’m lazy. There are hundreds of images of me apparently sleeping but what I’m really doing is considering this issues. I’m a thoughtful cat. If napping looks a little like thinking, is that really my fault?  However, don’t think I can’t take action. Show me a feather toy, a string toy or a vacuum cleaner and you’ll be amazed at how fast I can take action.

So remember, a vote for Chey is a vote for Purrfect Pals!

  1. Ruling the World comes so naturally to you Chey. I think it’s all your experience in running for Purresident.

    Purrrs,

  2. Well at least all of the cat-idates are aligned on today’s topics. See how great we all get along?

    ….still, you may want to watch your back. Cathy Keisha was just appointed my Chief Field Campaign Manager. ; )

    Katie
    YES WE CAT

  5. Chey, my point of view was slightly different from yours, but I have to say we both have GREAT arguments, and both are absolutely valid.

  7. We just happen to think that dogs are pretty darn special too. We love our two doggies. We don’t like that this election has turned to dogs vs cats.

  10. I do not unnerstands everything that you says Chey, so I think I will gets the Giant Kitteh to explains it to me but I will elects you Chey!

  14. Yes, you are indeed very thoughtful, Chey — more thoughtful than most — that’s fur sure! And it would be nice to have a ladycat ruler for a change, too. Mancats and men have ruled for far too long already.
