Cat's Pajamas

Do cats appear to be wearing clothing? I always thought Dee's cat Shannon looked like she was wearing pants. Dee thought I was nuts. When my mom came to visit she remarked that Shannon appeared to be wearing pajamas. Dee says that it's some genetic sickness that mom and I think a cat might appear to be wearing garments.

I disagree with that assessment or else we wouldn't have the stories of puss in boots and the phrase, "the cat's pajamas." We even get formal and say a cat is a "tuxedo cat" - am I right? Not every cat appears clad in finery or bedclothes but it isn't out of this world to see a cat complete with an outfit to match.


Dee just sighed and said, "it's true - but I still disagree." Dee stops short of garmentry with commentary on Laura Ingall's eyeliner.


It's a cool Sunday and we're going to make tea and let this topic rest.
