Heavy Equipment Sale

QUESTION:

I just had the funniest phone call I had to run in here and share. The voice on the other end said, "I'm calling about the cat you have for sale." "Cat for sale? Me? I don't have a cat for sale." "But your number is in the paper. Is your number 2179?" "Well, yeah, but I don't have a cat for sale. But if you really want a cat, I know where there are lots of them." "Used or new?" "Huh?"

ANSWER:

don't you just love these sort of phone calls. When I was doing re-homing for a cat charity my phone no. was in the paper every week and one evening I had a woman call me asking if I would take her Yorkshire Terrier as she was moving to a place that didn't allow pets, she just couldn't understand that the charity (called Feline Cat Rescue) only took in cats.
