keeping the family together

keeping an animal family together is as tough as keeping any family together. there are days when the man and woman are tearing their hair out trying to juggle work, finances, each other and us. with a lot of yelling.

and there are days when they just want to give up. the kittens are impossible. i whine at the slightest hint of annoyance. rabbeet sulks. the man and woman contemplate giving us all away.

'we have no fucking time to be running after fucking animals all day.'
'what's your problem? no time so give them away la!'
'give maneki away, old cat so grouchy.'
'no, not maneki! give away the kittens, people always want kittens.'
'(knnccb)... you want to give give all, or else don't give.'

a big problem is the rising animal bills, an uncertain financial future and the very real sacrifices that may soon have to be made in order to sustain us. its a good thing the woman watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory recently. Grandpa George says to Charlie, "Only a dummy would give this up for something as common as money. Are you a dummy?"
