The following was found posted very low on a refrigerator
door.
Dear Dogs
& Cats:
The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a
racetrack. Racing me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me
doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run.
I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about
this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your
comfort.
Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they
sleep.
It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other,
stretched out to the fullest extent possible.
I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues
hanging out on the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.
For the last time, there
is no secret exit from the bathroom!
If, by some
miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary
to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an
attempt to open the door. I must exit through the same door I
entered.
Also, I have been using the bathroom for years
canine/feline
attendance is not required.
The proper order for kissing is:
Kiss
me first,
then go smell the other dog or cat's butt!
I cannot stress this enough!!

Finally, in fairness, dear pets, I have posted the following
message on the front door:
TO ALL NON-PET OWNERS
WHO VISIT
AND LIKE TO COMPLAIN
ABOUT OUR PETS:
(1) They live
here. You don't.
(2) If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off
the furniture. That's why they call it 'fur'-niture.
(3) I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.
(4) To you, they are animals. To me, they are
adopted sons/daughters who are short, hairy, walk on all fours and don't speak
clearly.
Remember, dogs and cats
are better than kids because they
(1) Eat less; (2) don't ask for money all the
time, (3) are easier to train,
(4) Normally come when called, (5) never ask to drive the car,
(6) don't hang out with drug-using people,
(7) Don’t smoke or drink,
(8) don't want to wear your clothes,
(9) don't have to buy the latest fashions,
(10) Don’t need a gazillion dollars for college and
(11) if they get
pregnant, you can sell their children.
WOW !!!
Love
