Monty by Jim Meddick for January 10, 2023

He’s watching cat videos.

Go to a restaurant and look at tables with families and see how many are talking with each other rather than just staring at their device (phones, tablets, …). Pretty sad.

He’s watching youtube videos about mouse traps.

Put a virtual laser pointer app on his phone, he’ll be entertained for hours.

That’s ‘Kitty’ videos…

Fleshy has graduated to the technological age.

Why would you get your cat a phone? Even given the whole suspended reality thing.

get a box that’s only 80% big enough, they love to cram themselves into things.

I have a cat that loves goat videos. Especially the fainting goats. Alice gets on my desk every morning for a showing. And if I don’t, she will pace across in front of the monitor until I do.

He’s ordering a sweater.

“SO many mouse videos…. purrrrrrr”

Ironically, it’s the “Ball of String” App on his phone…

♫ Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens Brown paper packages tied up with strings These are a few of my favorite things ♫

He went on Plenty of Fish to look for food, and ended up looking for a date.

Get the laser light, he can’t resist…

Finally got something he can use. I don’t mean cat videos.

Oh, no! Not Fleshy, too! Say it isn’t so. Fleshy the Phonaholic is a sad victim.

And I blame it all on Monty for giving him a smart phone!
