There’s this neighborhood tom cat that we all sort of take care of.  My neighbor takes him in to the vet, where she works, for free health care, I feed him daily, and the other neighbors don’t kill him.  It’s a community thing.  Anyway, like I said, I feed him.  Two Days Ago, I bought Generic cat food.  It’s the same “indoor formula” that I always get, but cheaper.  Also, I’m battling a hellacious cold and didn’t feel like going all the way to the next city to get the name brand food.  I settled for the generic kind sold at the local Piggly Wiggly.

TWO DAYS AGO, a certain cat started snubbing my food offerings. WTF? um….hey there lil’ cat dude….take what you get.  He keeps looking at me like:

senior meows-the-loudest: What’s this crap?

ME: It’s the same stuff I always give you.

Senior meows-the-loudest: No it isn’t.  It’s clearly generic.  I am above eating generic.

ME: You eat bugs and rats.  I’ve seen you do it.

Senior meows-the-loudest:  That’s not the point.  This shit isn’t gonna fly.

ME:  Look, times are tough and there are like 4 more just like you inside and they seem to eat it just fine.

Senior meows-the-loudest: <blank stare>

ME: Fine.  When this bag runs out I’ll get the name brand stuff….asshole….

I am dead serious when I say that cat is snubbing my generic food.  For now, I know he’s eating it when no one is looking.  Either that or a stray dog is….or one of the million bunnies we have out here.

My POINT IS that cat’s an asshole.
