Yarn Monkey Junkies.

We have three cats.
Now and then, Ellen buys a catnip plaything and leaves it lying around. The one she bought yesterday is a small yarn monkey filled with catnip leaves. It's been popular--constant runnings to and fro, with many thefts. The oldest cat is now wandering the house in despond, calling over and over, "O, who has stolen my yarn monkey?"
The youngest cat has it now, in the living room, and is dancing for joy--"my monkey of yarn...my monkey of yarn...I do so love my monkey of yarn..." She tosses and catches it, rolling and twisting on the floor like a hog. Her bliss is complete.
The middle cat--more reticent than the others, and a very conservative creature (perhaps she is a Republican) prefers to keep her catnip jones a private matter. Although she enjoys it as much as the others do, she is a solitary drunk, and gives in to her base impulses in hidden places. Unfortunately, she drools in ecstacy, and the yarn monkey is now a very disgusting object.
Which does not seem to decrease its popularity.
All in all, the place is in an uproar. I will be glad when the yarn monkey meets its inevitable demise.
Best,
George

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

OMG George!! This story had me cracking up, and it does still hurt to laugh so much after my surgery!! hahaha
I really want to get a Yarn Monkey for my cat now - where does one find such a thing? I only have one cat, so there can be no wars, but I just want to see what he does with it!
Thanks for sharing that story - I needed a laugh right about now!! 
Hugz,
Carrie
