My sister has gone on the "Crazy Cat Lady Exercise Program".
1. Decide that you should no longer have a cat in your household due to allergies, etc.
2. Give cat to friend who lives approximately 1 mile away AND up hill from you. (You may have to move to a small town on the side of a mountain.)
3. Neighbor lets cat out… and cat doesn’t come back. Neighbor informs you that they have lost “your” cat.
4. Feel extremely guilty and terrible for ever giving cat away.
5. For one hour before work and one hour after work, begin walking all over town… with the cat’s dry food bowl. While walking, shake dry food in the bowl, while calling “Toddy!!! Here Toddy!!! Here Kitty!!!”
6. Also crawl into bushes looking for cat that may be injured or scared.
7. Do this for 2 weeks… and eventually your cat may find its way home. Call neighbor and inform them that the cat found its way home and you are keeping the cat.
8. Get second cat to keep first cat company.
