Way too many ears, this cat has.

Yoda the cat has been quite popular in the news. I'm always a little leery around cats. This one is probably right up there with the post I did about the cat that grew a set of wings. Linda was telling me about a cat she had when she was a little girl named Scooby-Do. He had 7 toes on each foot and looked exactly like Yoda, only Scooby had 2 ears. She would dress him up in her doll clothes and push the puss around the neighborhood in her doll stroller. She also made him wear little rubber dog boots when he went outside. Scooby would even ride in her bike basket without ever jumping out. It was the best cat ever. (Sorry Chip, I doubt you would let Linda even wrap you in a blanket without clawing her to death.) One snowy morning Linda looked out he bedroom window and saw Scooby laying in the road. He had been hit by a car during the night. A few weeks after he was buried in the back garden, Scooby's ghost came back into the house for a visit. Both Linda and her Mom saw him walk through the dining room and they heard him jump up onto the kitchen sink where he used to get a drink. They both ran into the kitchen and he was gone, never to return. Maybe Snickers will come and visit us!
