Do writers have a cat or a dog?

We've all been there.

 

Oh yeah? You've been to 501-B too? Let me use a word that a "real" writer should abstain from using, ever if possible. AWESOME! So then you met my ex-cat and you know what I'm confabulating about.

 

I've metaphorically been there. Totally tubular.

 

Assuming you're an American writer, you should only have a pet gun.

 

I am a Pacifist, dear Sir/Madam - and no, I am not from the Pacific. Alas, I'm not an American writer, but I use the font (American Typewriter) so I'd say, that could qualify me to own a pet slingshot.

 

The syllogism that will win you a pet gun:

An American is someone who lives in The United States of America
Every American is entitled to a pet gun
From an American perspective, The United States of America is the world
Everyone in the world is, thus, an American

Therefore, everyone in the world is an American
Therefore, everyone in the world is entitled to a pet gun

 

Ha ha true indeed. Im heaving myself to Walmart in a minute. What do you think, shotgun would be too "show off"?

 

A mini-gun isn't too "show off."

 

I like big cats (aka Bengal) big dogs (aka Great Dane) and I will not be caught with a mini-gun ! I don't even know what that is!

 

it does not matter if you have a cat or dog as long as it eats marmalade

 

I like how this of all threads has been hijacked by surrealists.

 

I have a Dog. Someday i'll get a Cat or two.

 

I am a cat person.

But I can't have a cat because my SIL is deathly allergic.

We have two dogs.

 

I have 2 cats, one of which is kind enough to help me with my writing by falling asleep on my hands and dribbling on me....

 

My username gives it away. I have eight of them.

I prefer quiet creatures who know how to breath with their mouths closed and don't tackle me every time I walk through the door.

 

I've got a small dog and two cats and they're absolutely adorable together.
