Another cat story

You don't have to own a cat to appreciate this one! You don't even
have to like 'em!

We were dressed and ready to go out for the New Years Eve Party. We
turned on a night light, turned the answering machine on, covered our
pet parakeet and put the cat in the backyard. We phoned the local cab
company and requested a taxi. The taxi arrived and we opened the front
door to leave the house. The cat we put out in the back yard, scoots
back into the front door.

We didn't want the cat shut in the house because she always tries to
eat the bird. My wife goes out to the taxi, while I went inside to get
the cat. The cat runs upstairs, with me in hot pursuit. Waiting in the
cab, my wife doesn't want the driver to know that the house will be
empty for the night. So, she explains to the taxi driver that I will
be out soon, 'He's just going upstairs to say Goodbye to my mother.'

A few minutes later, I get into the cab. 'Sorry I took so long,' I
said, as we drove away. 'That stupid bitch was hiding under the bed. I
had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out! She tried
to take off, so I grabbed her by the neck. Then, I had to wrap her in
a blanket to keep her from scratching me. But it worked! I hauled her
fat ass downstairs and threw her out into the back yard!

The cab driver hit a parked car.
