Garfield Teaches Parker to Drive

PROBABLY NOT THE WISEST CHOICE OF DRIVING INSTRUCTORS!!

Uh oh, Garfield. I think I just rolled over a cat food can.

Amazing Cat! Me-ow!

Dear Imaginary Friends,

I have a neighbor, who has a cat, whom she trained to play Chopin on the piano! If I had a video I would post it, but is that amazing, or what?

The cat's name is Ermengarde. She is four years old, and now her owner is training her to sing opera. I was hoping for Broadway tunes.

Life is amazing, isn't it?

Your Imaginary Friend,

Patsie

PS. Ermengarde asked me to tell you, "April Fool's Day!"

SO Funny: Cat Facts

 Dear Imaginary Friends,

The above is a messaging hoax. I squealed with laughter when I read it. The annoying persistence of Cat Facts sent me over the edge.

Hope you love it too. I did not create it, but wish I knew who did so that I could give them credit.

Your Imaginary Cat Owner,

Patsie

It is Too Darn Cold Already!

While visiting the Andy Warhol Show yesterday, I decided to take on the Doctor Seuss character "Cat in the Hat".

So to speak!
And yes, I enjoyed the show.

Your Imaginary Cat,

Patsie
