The Purrfect Cat

Is your favorite feline a purrfect pet? Put the little dear to this test--you might take her down a peg or two.

My Kitty:

• Knows her proper place (smack dab in the middle of the king-sized bed, between the other occupants.)


• Practices home improvement--carefully lines up the claw marks on the furniture.


• Greets important company properly--the white cats jumps on the lap of Mr. Black Suit, the black one adorns the white velvet lap of his wife.


• Helps clean the dishes (sometimes when company is still eating).


• Practices time management--eats, sleeps in alternate quarter-hour periods.


• Assists with web site development by helpfully keeping keyboard warm and mouse excercised.


• Protects me from the annoyance of unwanted cats on my shoulders (by getting there first).


• Helps me read the newspaper by holding it down firmly.


• Maintains good grooming habits by washing several times daily.


• Provides free wake-up service (at 2, 3, 4 a.m. or whenever hunger strikes.)

Allow ten points for each affirmative answer.
