Cat and the Grocery List
A man sends his cat to fetch groceries with a list tied to its collar. An hour later, the cat returns with a bag of chips and a note: “Out of milk. Chips will do.”
Shocked, the man says, “You’re a genius!” The cat shrugs. “Next time, write ‘fish.’”
The man is impressed and says, “Okay, tell me something impressive, then.”
The parrot looks around, clears its throat, and says, “I’m the parrot that once convinced a dog to chase a cat into a tree!”
The man chuckles and says, “That’s great, but what’s the secret to being so smart?”
The parrot leans in and whispers, “I read a lot of newspapers, but the real secret is… I’ve been telling people I’m a dog, and it’s working.”
