Lent Vent



So today the Human explained that we are entering Lent which means *I* am supposed to give something up, or be merciful, or perform good deeds.

Well, I tell ya what, you can count me out of this season, Lady. Mardi Gras was one thing, but this Lent stuff is just not gonna be happening. 


But go ahead. Knock yourself out. I'll be watching.

Poor Spitty. Kitties don't have to participate, only us sinners need to repent and you have nothing to repent. :)

Yeah, I don't get this Lent stuff either. Especially since giving up Binga isn't one of the options.

Personally, I'm going to try to not yak for Lent. I don't much anyway, but today after I got a cheese treat? I threw it up on the carpet--which almost made my mom yak! She said there was nothing worse than regurgitated dairy products. I don't know--Caroline can be pretty bad. Plus, I know that Sundays are free days and I can always yak then if I get a hairball or something.

Mebbe you can give up one bitey a day - you still have 9 biteys.

Are we cats Christians? No. Should we care about Lent? No. Are we cats Moslems? No. Should we care about Ramadan? No. Does your human need more examples?

Btw: our human admires your .... eh ... habits (?) of (not) doing things. She hopes we'll "do a Spitty" and be cute shelf cats again. http://whenthecatisaway.com/cats-in-a-shelf/ Didn't she learn that nobody can predict what a cat like you is going to do? So maybe you should participate in Lent?

You mean it's not all about lending stuff and never getting it back ?
If I had a religion I'd have a period of 40 days called Take.

In order to build harmony in the household, Spitty, I think you need to adopt the Lone Star Cats' line. How about telling the Human that you're going to give up broccoli? That should make everyone happy.

Humans have to do that whole give something up stuff because they are just human.. but kitties are perfect, therefore they have nothing to 'get right' about! Right? Right! Especially you! Smooches!

Eastside Cats said...

I say, we all give up on giving up stuff, Spitty!

I'm with you on this thing Spitty....I've told Mom she's in charge of giving something up around here and I strongly suggested that the "something" she gives up is about 20 lbs. She was not happy with my suggestion.

Hugs, Sammy

Don't get too adamant Spitty, maybe the Human is on to something. On the other hand, if you have to give up something make it something you've always wanted to stop.

Cathy Keisha said...

HAH! I certainly won’t be giving anything up, not even you, Spitty.

I told my mum I was going to give up taking my pills. She said, "In your dreams matey!"

How about monogamy? That seems like an easy one to forego...
