Hi 'j' - May I ask you another favor? Then I'll OU another Zillion +1. Getting Noodged on my - ALWAYS - Short by a "Miles Henderson" in his full-bloom advertising; I feel this is very selfish and I can't shake him. It's just so annoying these banner hangers; can't they ask any nicer than that. I so-know you're very busy. If no time for it I totally understand. Can you suggest who I might Kvetch to pursuant to this issue - I think VM changed their policies re; these boot lickers? Don't have a clue why some of your chums blatantly treat me like I have 'Cooties' (Is that still an expression?) I'm really not Contagious..."Probably" I've read your goals for '24 - Best to you Mrs. Judey. 'j'
Dear Judey - I so do not want to bother you with this again. You've already gone out of your way to always be there for our little village Pro Bono; a very nice thing. I have these guys crawling all over my stories and I can't get rid of them. I get that they're hanging their Schtick onto my banner. But, it's just annoying and interrupts the flow of real comments. Incredibly - 'Schtoonky' - All TOP Stories that have just been 'Gooped' up by them today my: 'Heartsy' - 'Victims-Too' - and 'Sugar Daddy' When you have a moment please advise. And, Girl, I'll OU another 1 *Seriously, Judey, I know this is not your issue. But this must happen to you a lot as well with all the TOPS you've had. I've sent in a lot of 'Reports.' I don't know what else to do - it just Muddy's up the site with all of this - and how blatantly that they navigate it. Jay
Hi Mrs. Judey - Couldn't resist saying that my neighbor walks her cat on a leash just like a dog. Could~Probably be that there are so many Coyotes in the hills where we live that neither dogs/or cats are let out - especially our Corgis without us. Although we have 8 Ft Fences several, at once, just jump them. Just the other day a new neighbor said that she can't get used to them; my only comment was that they were here way before us. Sorry to blab - Ooh, I was told that someone plagiarized my 'Heartsy' in Humor but gone now; probably in fear of you! My Best, 'J'
rawr...too cute
Great work! I wish I had a host cat. Might be able to get that one by my landlords!
This is great. And that would definitely be spooky. Love it.
😆Great Job, Short and Humorous 📝♥️💯✌️
😂🤣😂Too funny
Nice Haiku Entry Judey! 🐈⬛ ☺️👍
Cat dog? Loved the Haiku. Once thought I saw a family of cats crawl into a sewer. Went to take a closer look at them and the family of “raccoons” popped out and started growling at me in a way that sounded like demonic cats. I held up my hands in surrender and slowly backed away.
We had a cat that used to come home & yowl every night over the wounds it received while trying to claim dominance over the rest of the neighborhood. Sounded like the very gates of hell & all the lost souls therein.
Terrific haiku!!! Love your ghost cat!!!❤️❤️💕
Yowls like a ninja wanting to take your tongue. Hence, Cat got your tongue. Great haiku Judey. 😎
Great haiku for the challenge, Judey
