                                                     Kateri, felis ridiculosa
Kateri showed me an article in the newspaper about a man who spent $20,000 in order to have hip surgery done on his cat. She asked me if I would be willing to spend $20,000 in case she needs hip surgery. I said, “Sure! No problem! I would just take it out of excess parish funds!” She then suggested that I ask Bishop Barres to convert the Cardinal Brennan property into an orthopedic hospital for cats. I told her, “Sure thing! I’ll get on that right away! I have no doubt that the Bishop will jump at that suggestion!” I find that the best way to deal with Kateri is just to keep a straight face and tell her what she wants to hear. I have better things to do with my time than argue with a cat!
