A Kitten's Creed

Here is a look into the world of cat's:

Every housecat, when just a young kitten, must memorize and recite this solemn oath, aptly named, "The Kitten's Creed". Here I will recite it:

"I promise to...
Meow loudly at night to make sure you stay awake in case burglars come...
Scratch only the nicest furniture - my claws deserve the best...
Go to the bathroom behind the couch where you don't have to worry about it...
Practice my climbing skills on the draperies, just in case I need to know how...
Lap my milk sloppily - the fun way...
Have the most fun possible, doing whatever is the most fun...
Shed my fur all over, so you know that I am always there...
Play with my food...
Help staple your important papers with my teeth...
Hiss at every dog, vaccum cleaner, and toddler that may harm me...
Wake you up early to feed me...
...Comfort you when you are sad...
...Snuggle with you in bed...
...Protect you the best I can...
...Love you till the day I die...and after..."

So, if you ever bring home a new kitten, and they are meowing the whole way in their crate in the back of the car, just know that they are loudly reciting this over and over again, just to let you know that they will stay true to this honorable creed.

  2. Eh, I could care more or less... I'm a cat. But I do love my humans very much. Why do you think I purr like a lawnmower?
