MARGOT BRINGS NEW BOYFRIEND TO DINNER. OLD ONE UNDER TABLE.

A tortoiseshell cat and a silver tabby stand beside a dinner table while a black-and-white cat sits underneath.

Margot arrived at dinner beside her new boyfriend and requested a quiet evening without speculashun. Her previous boyfriend, already beneath the table, had apparently understood their separashun to apply only above floor level.

The two tomcats exchanged a lengthy silense. Margot introduced the newcomer as someone who had brought a refreshing maturitee to her life. Under the table, her ex began washing one foot.

The hostess offered to rearrange everyone. Margot declined with considerable confidents. She had moved on, she explained, and saw no reason to move her chair as well.

Fiction & satire. These cats and their scandals are invented.
