Boneheaded Box Boy Blues

"Hey, Human. I've been thinking about getting a part-time job to earn a little extra cash. LadyCats are expensive, you know--good-quality food, 'nip, soft beddies. What do you think?"

"That's a nice idea, Spits, but what are you qualified to do? I mean, you'll need a skill set to get hired in these recessionary times."

"I've heard there are people who hire Box Boys! Hey, I'm a pro--I bet I could make a ton of money doing that, right?"

Friendly Fill-Ins

Our friends at 15 and Meowing came up with the first two sentences and Four-Legged Furballs came up with the second two. 

1. If you want laptime, you have to pay me in brushies.

2. During the month of August, I plan to conduct an annual performance review 
of my Human.

3. Others might think it’s strange that I can smell butter from 20 yards away.

4. 2021 seems so far away, but it's not.

Oh - I like the sound of #2. Very much looking forward to that given how poor the Human's service and support have been of late. If you need a hand with the wording, just call on me!

As for getting a job - modelling pays extraordinarily well I hear. I think you'd probably only have to do one gig a month at most.

Spitty, I like Brian's comment: a boxer!
You've got the physique, and the winning catitude...

Maybe you could be a food tester. HAH! I bet a lot of gut rot wouldn't get mass produced then. Great fill-in answers. I wouldn't do a lap for all the treats in the world.

Spitty, you could sell a calendar on Zazzle- all the ladycats would buy it.
Thank you for participating in the fill-ins, great answers. If i were the human, I would be nervous about that review being that she didn't help you blog for several weeks in a row.
Maybe some butter would help improve her score. XO

Well, I've heard good box boys are well tipped, so there's that.

Well Spitty I think you do fill a box rather nicely - but you don't want to be doing any heavy lifting so I suggest NOT taking a Box Boy job and instead be a BOX MODEL. I'm sure the pay is good and you just lie there looking cute - you can handle that right? Love your fill-ins too - well done...........

Hugs, Teddy

Spitty you will make a fine Box Boy. Just remember to hop out before it gets wrapped up. Good answers and where has 2020 gone? *sigh*

Exceptionally good job on the fill-ins, Spitty, and we definitely think you have all the qualifications to be an excellent box boy. Misty May sends 💋💋💋. XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, angel Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy and Sawyer
