. . . and you know what I don’t appreciate? Being called Anteater. You’d think I was doing this household a favor by hunting down and ridding this place of pesky and insistent ants. And what do I get for it? Called names.

Beside that upset stomach I get from eating ants, beside all that unpleasantness, I search high and low for those wee small teensy tiny crawling things. Do you remember when my Mom used to praise me for being the best bug hunter ever? I remember that. Of course, I whapped the bugs back then. I didn’t know some were soooo tasty.

I’m not any more inclined to give up hunting for and eating ants than my Mom and Dad are in labeling me Anteater. Maybe it’s a title I should carry proudly. I’ll be sure to tell the next ant I find that I’m only doing what my title insists I do.

Now that I’m doing two jobs as a cat AND as an Anteater, let’s talk about a raise . . .

  1. Pia, here’s a suggestion: “The term “antbear” is commonly used to refer to the giant anteater, the largest member of the anteater family.”
    Pia, The Antbear!
    Oh yeah, that’s better, no?

  4. Memories of Eric and Flynn says:

    You are a very proficient hunter, but maybe just kill them and not eat them, Pia.

    Mudpie doesn’t eat ants, but she enjoys bopping spiders on the head!
