The Pussy.

How evocative this title must sound. Strangely enough this word holds new meaning to me now.
As a short introduction, I have been working at the SPCA now, so, no longer with weird people ordering coffee but weird people wanting or no longer wanting animals. This one case was the highlight of my day if not week at work. It was Sunday when...
An indian man comes to the counter to abandon his cat for whatever reason, something like he had to move and was not allowed or something, yah good reason mr.
So, the great part was that he had the kickass Indian accent that I am in love with. I quote:
"Please take my pussy, it is very good pussy, pussy does not bite...very good pussy!"
The girl at the reception desk is my new hero for not peeing her pants at this first demonstration of wit.
"Yes," she begins, " very nice KITTY," she emphasizes.
The man goes on referring to the cat as "the pussy" and even comes out with the comment: "Yes, very furry pussy, furry like curry!" I cannot repeat enough that it is for some reason so much funnier in that damn accent!
The lines just keep on going.
"Is it a boy or girl sir?"
"Vell, it vas a boy, but not any more! Snip Snip!" With the scissor gesture we all know too well.
As she asks him to fill out the release form, name address etc., he looks at her and says:
"I may look educated but I am not!" Smiling as he says it too!
The moral of the story: I love the Indian accent, and cats shall now be referred to as "Pussies" much more appropriate.
