"I have often said that Advent should incite in Christians the same kind of anticipation of Jesus that the sound of the can opener has for my cats. We need to be able to hear the sounds of Advent and be chopping at the bit for Christ’s return to our hearts. But all too often we allow the season of Advent to be overcome with holiday panic." - Muthah (click here to read the entire sermon) Artistic rendering taken from here.

Wow, I love that comparison.
Yes, dogs are much kinder when it comes to feeding time! Cats definintely let you know what they want (food) and when they want it (now) :) May we all know how much we need Christ.....

Oh, that is both funny and very wonderful at the same time.
Interestingly, Roberta, my cats are actually more patient about food than my big dog. (Go figure...)
