Voting is serious business, not only a right but a privilege. I voted early, and will watch the election returns with great interest. Hopefully, those reading this have already exercised your rights--if you haven’t, please do.

Since I’m a pet person, my thoughts tend to wander into paw-sitive ground re: elections. Not to make light of the topic, but I wonder what hot-button issues might interest our cats and dogs? Would fur-eign policy matter? Would cats and dogs vote straight party-line tickets? What issues would put their tails in a twist, bring on the howls, or prompt purrs of delight? What campaign promises would get out the pet-vote?

The Pets Weigh In...

I asked my dog Magic, and my cat Seren, and they asked their friends. Here are a few of the tongue-in-furry-cheek campaign promises pets might vote for:

Magic says, “Extra big food bowls.”
Seren says, “Catnip twice a day….”
Magic says, “A chicken in every pot, a pot for every dog.”
Seren says, “Just give me the chicken. With feathers.”
Magic says, “Mom’s lap bigger so I fit.”
Seren says, “Banish all dogs.”
Magic says, “Make Seren like me.”
Seren says, “Make cats king-of-the-world.”
Magic says, “Games of fetch 20,000,000,000 times a day.”
Seren says, “More sunny nap spots.”
Magic says, “Bones. Lots and lots of bones. And treats.”
Seren says, “Petting. All the time.”
Magic says, “Toy bears for everybody! Grrrr-wow!”
Seren says, “Kitty Kaviar, philly cream cheese, and ice cream.”

And the number one campaign promise that gets every pet’s vote:

“A forever-home for every cat and dog.”

What would YOUR fur-kids vote for?
