Hilarious cat story

This was sent to me by a friend, who found it somewhere on the 'Net, probably been around for a long time, but pretty funny:

==============================================
"My sister-in law is from Oklahoma and has a slight accent.

"She has cats and when she lived in the south she would take them to the groomers and have what is called a Line Cut. To her a line cut is when all of the fur hanging down below the cat’s tummy is taken off (because it gets matted or snarled).

“When she moved to Chicago with my brother, one of the cats fur got all tangled up during the move, so she took it in for a line cut. She was quite surprised when she heard the price as it was twice as much as it was down south. She confirmed with the groomer that he understood what a line cut was and he said “yes, I know what a LION cut is.” It seems her accent came out sounding like LION not LINE and this is how her cat was returned to her. She cried for a week…but not as much as the cat. It was November in Chicago and the cat needed all the fur it had.”

Snopes is your friend. Use it.

You’re right, I should have checked. Nevertheless, it’s still pretty damned funny.

I have refraind from posting those in the past. I show those to friends, but not cat lovers. I saw the original posting of this sent to another site, for witch those pictures or worse is the norm. I tried to find that link, but ran across some Chinese contravertial food and leave it at that.

A friend off a mailing list posted this little gem a few years ago. It is in several places online, but this is the page I have bookmarked=)
