This Is Definitely The Most Interesting Thing You Will See Today. You’re Welcome.

This dog and cat duo are out to shake things up. One simple act performed by the two of them reverses the natural order of the universe and forces everyone to question everything they know.

See for yourself!

it read "CNN Distraction: It's Not News." Like CNN gives us real news now anyway.

My cat is easily distracted and there is no way my car could focus on bringing his buddy home unless it meant food. My guess is that this is true of this cat.

Actually, I think the dog was okay with going along with the cat, and the cat was very smart because he obviously wanted the dog to come with him wherever it was he wanted them to go.

The "CNN Distraction - it's not news," part made me laugh almost as much as this sweet pair made me aww.

It's about time everyone accepted that.
And maybe have another drink.

In another dimension of earth the cats were the intelligent ones and controlled people like we control animals.,,but the humanoids were the only ones that did not know it.
The humans thought they were the smart ones because they had language, but cats had telepathy and did not need language...and they had the CWW...the Cat Wide Web which they spent a lot of time on sharing their funny story's of humans...and the humans just thought they slept a lot.

It could happen.

troops of an ultimate conquest by the cat overlords. The ones who came here are quite content, because they've had it pretty good for the most part. The story conflict could be when one of the distant overlords contacts who ever is the Empress of Cats here on this planet because, trust me, it would absolutely be a female who would be in charge of the cats, and the cats here decide they do not want to blow a good thing, and so they need to find a way to stop the impending alien cat invasion.


I'll need to think about that one. It has possibilities, and I do write science fiction sometimes.

Well then I told it to the right person then.
But I was thinking it as more of an evolution than an invasion, that cats had always ruled mankind going back to the temples of Egypt...and had evolved their mental powers like we developed the transistor.

There's room for multiple Cats Conquer the Earth stories. Hmmm. That would actually make a good anthology.

Yeah, I write science fiction and I'm trying to get very serious about it. Tonight I met a couple of other newbie writers and we're working to form a critique group.
