After performing Mr.
Beard's poem, Edgar took on a new role as Dr. E.A. Paw Felinus,
harking his miracle cat product, "Whiskers for a Rainy Day."
It's a little known fact that cats shed their whsikers. And
many owners have taken to saving them. So I began making
these, which are priced at $3.00 US per jar. As a bonus, each
whisker jar comes with an informative message from the good doctor
himself: |
|
"Friends, are you troubled by many a sleepless afternoon? Are
you tired of catnaps all-too-often interrupted by fears for the
safety of your whiskers? Those terrible fears of grabby little
paws, cat burglars, or the most awful noisy vacuum beast?
Worry no longer, good kitties, for I, E.A. Paw Felinus, DVM, have
found the solution! You may forget the old ways of whisker
preservation! Blow off burying them in the bedding; halt
hiding them in the hall; stop squirreling them away on the stair
step; even cease stashing them under the scratching post!
There is a better way, and it comes with my guarantee! Save
your whiskers in my patented "Whiskers for a Rainy Day" whisker jar!
These sleek and, should you be in need of a crashing implement,
aero-dynamic jars are made from the highest grade
weather-resistant translucent Milkius Bottilus (or 'glass' in
laycat's terms) and are proven to guard your whiskers from the
elements and would-be thieves. (Guarantee
does not apply to theft by those with opposable thumbs.)
But the value does not stop there, my bosom chums, for in my many
travels around the globe I have discovered a most rare item:
the Sacred Egyptian Gilded Whiskers of Eternal Sunny Napping Spots
which are rumored to have been shed by the goddess Bastet herself
during her temple visitations in ancient times. At no small
expense to myself have I gone to ensue that each jar contains just
one of these priceless artifacts." |
