Beany–who thinks he runs the joint
I imagine that plenty of people have already seen the story below–maybe a million times. The story has been passed around for so long that I seriously have no idea where it comes from. But being a cat-type person–well, it still makes me laugh. So, please–just humor me. Besides, who doesn’t love a good cat joke?“The Line Cut Kitty”
My sister-in law is from Oklahoma and has a slight accent. She has cats and when she lived in the south she would take them to the groomers and have what is called a Line Cut. To her a line cut is when all of the fur hanging down below the cat’s tummy is taken off (because it gets matted or snarled).
When she moved to Chicago with my brother, some of the cats fur got all tangled up so she took it in for a line cut. She was quite surprised when she heard the price as it was twice as much as it was down south. She confirmed with the groomer that he understood what a line cut was and he said “Yes, I know what a LION cut is.” It seems her accent came out sounding like LION not LINE and this is how her cat was returned to her.
She cried for a week…but not as much as the cat. It was November in Chicago and the cat needed all the fur it had.”
Meh heh… he does THINK that he runs the joint. The other pictures are sad… poor cat!
Wow…I about died laughing just now. It’s sad but just so hilarious…the cat actually looks ashamed of his bad cut. Thanks for sharing!
Wow. That poor cat… but the pictures are so funny that I’m sitting here in the computer lab trying not to make a scene while suppressing my laughter. 🙂 Thanks for posting.
…I wonder what Beany would look like with a “lion” cut… I hope I never find out, but I do wonder. 🙂
