Subject: CAT FOOD OF LOVE 2000

 About Christmastime, I went to Pet Stuff and saw, to my utter delight,
a special on dry cat food. "Barney's Best" was selling for $7 for a 30
pound bag. Barney was a white cat, not of the magneto tyrannasaurs rex
variety. Happy with the apparent bargain, I bought a bag of "A Complete
Diet for Cats" that had "The Flavor Cats Love". Cheap eats for cheap
cats, I thought to myself.

 The cats hated it. It's April now, and I hadn't even gone halfway
through the bag. Now and then, after I stedfastly ignored their
plaintive wails to be fed, they might nibble a little bit of "Barney's
Best" to ward off the hunger pangs until I would give up and feed them a
can of Friskies.

 So today, after watching the cats dig through "Barney's Best", as if
looking for the prize in the bag or something, I shook my head and went
up the street and got them some "Dad's" cat food, for $9 a 20 pound bag.
I knew they liked "Dad's". They used to go through 3 pound bags in
nothing flat before the "Barney's Best" fiasco. I swept up the scattered
cat food from the kitchen floor, and took the remaining 15 pounds of
"Barney's Best", found a lid from a box of copier paper, and poured it
outside for the stray cats to eat. Hearing the noise, my wonder cats ran
outside, and began to chow down the "Barney's Best" like there was no
tomorrow.

 I think this supports the theory that cat's neruons are wired
backwards. Both of them.

"A Taste Cats Love", my ass
