Mom can I get you to buy me some Nipits…..pretty please with nip on it? I’ve told everyone about the benefits of this product and should find out for myself. Maybe there are side effects my friends should know about.
Shoko, those are not for cats or dogs…they’re for people. They are licorice and I don’t think you would like the taste and neither would your friends. Seriously? Only for peoples? My friends will think I’m a liar. Ohhhh, I’m so embarrassed. You didn’t know Shoko…your friends will understand. It sounded too good to be true. What will Einstein think? He’ll think I’m some kind of weirdo, won’t he?
If you explain to your friends what happened….they’ll understand Shoks. They visit with you and know how excited you get about something new. Ok, I’ll explain right away mom.
Friends I have just discovered that Nipits are not made for us cats and dogs but for people. I know, it is a shame and an obvious oversight that will cost the manufacturer millions. He has missed the market of us! Apparently the little discs taste like licorice….yuck! My friends one day perhaps someone will solve our problems by discovering a remedy for our throat conditions. I am sorry we can’t sample this product.

Oh Noes! I was so looking furward to having one of these knowing you were enjoying one at the same time. Well so the nip crumbles. (when it dries out and is best that way anymeow)
I would never think you are silly or anything other that beautifur and very intelligent. Everyone knows Siamese are the smartest cats and best at communicating. With their people too.
We will have to search together for something to calm our scratchy throat. How about a NipMargarita on Cinco De Meow? I hope you can some on Sunday to the Campfire. Timmy and I have started making some nice noms and have invited the peppers and a few mariachi bands fur fun
