“Dear Cocoa,
I am sooooo
depressed! I can’t seem to keep myself
going anymore. My limbs are weak and
tired; my head swims when I rise from bed; my tail drags on the floor as I walk
about; and my nose is always cold. What
do I have, please tell me Cocoa, for I fear all is lost and I am about to pass
on to that big catnip field in the sky.
Signed What’s wrong
with me”
“Dear What’s wrong
with me,
Oh no, my friend, I
fear you are suffering from a terrible disease that affects many felines in
their prime. You are, oh, I can’t say
it, but, I know that is what you are looking for so, oohh, uuhh, you are
suffering from loneliness. You are
craving companionship from another feline (at least I hope that is what you are
feeling, because if it is anything else, well then you might just as well find
the most comfortable spot you can and take a long, long, long nap). Wait, no, that is all wrong, you are not
heading for the catnip field in the sky, nor are you lonely, you are
BORED! Try racing over your pets while
they nap or climb the curtains in their presence. Jump on the table when they sit down to eat,
race around in circles like you are mad, and jump on and off the furniture like
it is burning you. It may take a bit
(humans can be so dense sometimes) but keep it up, eventually they will get the
message and buy you more toys to play with.
Signed Cocoa”
