If Pets Were Unionized, What Would They Demand? |
|
If pets had a union, my cats would demand more one-on-one quality time with me. There definitely would be food fights; there already are. I don't give them people food, because I don't think it's good for them. Besides, it freaks out house guests to have cats patrolling the dining room for table scraps.
If my cats had a shop steward to complain to, they'd file a grievance to be allowed out on the window sill. We live in an upstairs apartment, and I don't care how sure-footed they are, it just bothers me that they might fall. They can claw at the screen, but I won't open it.
At union meetings, I suspect they'd complain about each other. But I don't see them threatening to strike because they need more sleep. These animals have it pretty soft - one hour on, twelve hours off. And that's a work day.

I keep finding flyers from the AFL-CIO* around the food dishes, litter boxes and doggie toys.

No change from the status quo, actually.

11. Dogs would want more job security. Cats would want 24 hour access to food. |
