CAN CATS DANCE?

... Have you ever wondered what it would be like if cats could speak? Or dance? Or wear clothes?

... Have you ever wondered what your cats do after the lights go out?

... Have you ever given any thought as to how cats entertain themselves once they are certain that you are fast asleep?


I thought I was having the strangest dream last night. It all began with a veil of puffy white clouds drifting across a blue sky. Somewhere in the distance a mesmerizing tune was playing...

Within moments, as if by magic, the clouds parted and two of our cats appeared. Katzenberg looked quite dapper in his tuxedo, and Sabrina was attired in a ruffled gown that looked like streaks of pink cotton candy as she danced around an old-tyme nickelodeon. After a while a little mouse appeared decked out in a yellow sequin ballerina costume. As I remember it, Katz was trying to teach Sabrina a new dance, and the mouse kept interrupting.

Minutes after awakening I quickly realized that all of this was more than a dream. At first I couldn't understand why the tune that belonged to the dream was still playing in my head. That is, I couldn't understand it until I passed the living room and noticed that the tune was actually coming from our vintage nickelodeon. And out of the corner of my eye, this is what I saw and heard:

A little more rhythm. Don't you have rhythm in your soul, Sabrina?

Like this, Katzenberg? Is this any better?

That's almost right. Loosen up a bit. Try moving your head to the music. Like this.

Watch me, Sabrina. Move your feet like this.

Who invited you, mouse? Go back in your hole.

Ignore that mouse! Get behind me and watch my head from the back. And don't step on my tail! Sometimes you can be a bit clumsy

Hey, Katzenberg! Mr. Know-It-All! Who are you calling clumsy? I'll do this dance my way and have just as much fun, thank you!



Well, now you know the answer. Although my vision was blurred from sleep, I am sure of what I saw. Cats *can* dance... and maybe one day, when you least expect it, you'll be lucky enough to see *your* cat dance.
