Lion Cut

"Weather Prediction"

To tell the weather, go to your back door and
look for the dog. If the dog is at the door and
he is wet, it's probably raining.

But if the dog is standing there really soaking
wet, it is probably raining really hard.

If the dog's fur looks like it's been rubbed the
wrong way, it's probably windy.

If the dog has snow on his back, it's probably
snowing.

Of course, to be able to tell the weather like
this, you have to leave the dog outside all the
time, especially if you expect bad weather.

Sincerely, The CAT

"Lion Cut"

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,
one of the cats fur got all tangled up during the
move 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.
