The Scene.
My cousin, her husband and their two small people's house.
The Characters.
My cousin's husband (MCH) and one of their cats, Angus ( the mental one whose been on Prozac due to trying to lick all his fur off).
The Dialogue.
Angus: Meow! Meooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww!
MCH: Go away!
Angus: Meowwwwwwwwwww. Reowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
MCH: You've been fed, stop being so needy, please go away!
Angus: Meow, meow, meow.
MCH: YOU ARE JUST DOING MY HEAD IN !
Silence.
Stand off.
A few minutes later.
MCH leans forward, put his hands up so Angus can see them. Wiggles his thumbs in circles.
MCH: Hey look Angus! Opposable thumbs.
MCH: Na ni na ni na naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. I've got opposable thumbs, you haven't. Heh! Observe.
MCH picks up remote, changes channel. Sits back in chair, very pleased with himself.
Cat skulks from room.
Humans: 1
Felines: 0

I know what you mean, after watching my friend's dog for five minutes trying to open a bottle of wine, I said "ah here, I'll do it". He's better at burying bones though.
Hah!
I once did a story once about dog Prozac and I asked the woman if there was any chance if dogs would get addicted to it. She said, 'No, they don't have opposable thumbs.'
She had a point.
Hurrah for the humans!
I once heard the saying "Dogs have owners, cats have staff," and it's so true.
They're so full of themselves that even a small victory like MCH's makes you feel good.
It was quite glorious to observe, Tinman.
Hee.
Cats really aren't impressed by us, I don't think.
No one throws the stink eye like a cat.
You're so right.
but speaking of humans who aren't impressed with cute animals, have you seen http://fuckyoupenguin.blogspot.com/?
I think the white tiger post is my favourite, kanagroo and moose made me chuckle as well.
