Place: Dinner table, last night.
Weather: Raining like lions and wolves.
Sounds: Clattering of spoons and forks; family banter.
Suddenly…
Mother Goose: Pakitingnan mo nga si Stroke, patay na yata [Can you look at Stroke, I think he’s dead].
Everyone stills.
Don Domeng: Matagal nang matamlay yan, natuluyan na ba [He’s been weary for quite some time, did he finally die]?
Ched: Bakit, nasaan ba [Why, where is the cat]?
Parents point to my back, at the cat hang out, lowest shelf.
PM turn’s around.
PM: Nako… [Groan…]
Face palm, seeing Stroke not moving… His body stretched in an awkward still, head bent to a freakish angle…
Everybody in a moment of silence… Given parents keep pets like rounding animals for Noah’s ark, it it still awful to lose anyone of them, regardless of how annoying they can become sometimes.
Nan steps in, moves in to take the cadaver of Stroke away… Pokes the cat to check, though death very obvious…
Stroke opens eyes, giving everyone the WTF look after disturbing his sleep.
PM: Somebody stop me or that cat will be so sorry for being alive!!!

haha .. pasaway ka stroke :p
ewan ko nga diyan. 😆
haha! even cats can be mischievous! haha!
super!
and the best actor award in a dead role goes to.. STROKE!!! *clap clap clap*
ewan ko lang din ha, medyo nakakagalit din eh. 😆
turuan ninyo kasi kung paano matulog ng hindi mapagkakamalang patay…
walang tinginan na lang para mas okay!
Hahahahahah looks like Stroke is in trouble… for stressing the family 😀
misteryoso talaga si stroke, hindi mo maintindihan. hindi ko na lang siya pinapansin masyado.
Hahah! Hayop! Natawa ako! :p
ako din napatawa na lang eh isusupot na kasi siya tapos biglang gumalaw! 😀
Naalala ko tuloy ung alagang pusa ng kapatid ni Katniss sa The Hunger Games! :p Buti nlan it did not sink it’s claws on you. 😀
hindi ako familiar sa the hunger games. wala namang nakalmot, asar lang siya naistorbo ang pagtulog niya.
yan ang tunay na Play Dead! hehehe!
he obviously has issues, pat…
What are Stroke’s issues? hehehe! Sa bahay madami din pusa. One legitimate pet 13 ampon lahat! =)
sa tingin ko kailangan natin ng cat shrink to really understand his issues. wow, pareho tayo. dito samin whole assortment, parang noah’s ark.
Hehehe malambing nman sila. Paborito ko ung lalaking pusa makulet eh. hehehe!
I remember me post ako about sa isa ding pusa namin kaso wala na sya.

it’s always hard talking about pets who passed away. your post is sweet and heartbreaking at the same time. pero natawa din ako, natuto naman ba magtext? 😆
Hindi pero maglambing lalo hehehe!
malambing naman talaga yung pusa, maliban na lang pag wala sila sa mood!
Oo me isa kaming pusa kung makaemote talagang kagalit buong mundo. Iirapan ka at minsan me tiger look pang nalalaman. Pero pag kainan na ayun alam mong masaya sila sa buntot nila. Di sila mapakali! =)
i think all cats are neurotic and narcissistic, a bit psycho sometimes, but interestingly all these qualities make them more magnetic.
.. i wonder if cats fake sleep or can play dead? 😀
idk rob, maybe both.
Haha. grabe talaga si stroke, nakakastress
napagbintangan na naman siyang namatay kanina. he’s so stiff!
