[CAT WISDOM]


Like Quino’s self-absorbed Susanita

Mother wanted you to be a doctor.

A medical doctor (philosophy was a cat joke).


Did she expect you to cure her?

There is no cure for narcissism, I’m afraid.

 

You didn’t have to go to medical school

To find that out (albeit a little too late)

Just like a doctor – a specialist.


Or was that just another 

philosophical cat joke?
