Kliban's Cats by B. Kliban for January 10, 2023

The human is a real yo-yo.

He’s at least thinking about it.

A good way to lose a finger…

Yo, kitty!

The old cat considers, “Is it edible? I ain’t no kitten. If it ain’t edible, forget it!”

Anything can be a qat toy.

Nah‼️ Does nothing for me….you YOYO‼️

Yo! Yo not getting me to play with that

The old cat sees the yo-yo and is not smitten,

I can remember when he was a kitten.

.

(An imitation of ”The Span of Life” by Robert Frost):

“The old dog barks backward without getting up,

I can remember when he was a pup.”

“I’m not falling for that again.”

Cat is not impressed.

“Now…how can I get him to stick that finger into one of those sockets?”

That cat is ready to pounce.

No he does not want to “walk the dog”.

That doesn’t look like a cradle to me.

“Walk the Dog” indeed…
