Marceline, left: “Alice, dear, could you possibly manage to look a trifle less bored?”
Alice, right: “Are you kidding? We’re dressed up like cats. What is this accomplishing?”
Marceline: “It’s keeping us in the spotlight. As every good starlet knows, there are things you simply must do to keep the attention of your fans.”
Alice: “And what fans are those? Witches? The board members at the SPCA?”
Marceline: “Don’t be such a stick, sister girl. Just act sexy and smile a bit more.”
Alice: “I don’t feel very sexy with a fake tail shoved in my ear.”
Marceline: “And how sexy will you feel when we drop off the Lucky Strike Box Office Flames list?”
Alice: “Oh. I didn’t really think about that. Being on the list means I never have to pay for drinks in this town.”
Marceline: “Exactly. Now arch your back and purr like you mean it.”
Note: This is Exhibit #5 in Bonnywood’s March Madness. Details found here.

Oh, the things we humans do to humiliate cats. It’s no wonder they treat us as they do.

Can you imagine what it would be like if cats managed to take over the world? They’d look really cute with their tiny crowns and royal robes, but none of us peasants would ever be happy because we never know what they’re going to do next… 😉

Alice is method acting. She has fully embraced the cat persona and must act like she couldn’t care less.
Perhaps the resident feline could critique both ladies on their portrayal of true Catness? As the photographer? 🤔

Oh, that’s a great story idea, with Cleo proffering clever bon mots and-
Cleo, shoving me aside: “Let’s make one thing clear. I haven’t been properly compensated for my previous contributions on this wretched blog, so I have no plans to once again be taken advantage of just because-”
Me: “I just opened a fresh can of tuna.”
Cleo: “Hand me that keyboard.”

If you’re making the trivia reference that I think you’re making, you are a genius. (But I already knew that.) If not, we’ll just tip our hats to one another and move on… 😉
