Don’t ‘Nip and Drive!

Kids, this is Sergeant Brock Hamhock of the Cutetropolis Highway Patrol, with an important safety message for the reckless youth of today! You ruffians may think you’re invincible, but let me tell you the cautionary tale of a cat we’ll call “Becky.” One night, Becky drove a party where someone offered her a pawful of “Satan’s sage,” the “herb from Hell” — that’s right, catnip.

And before you could say “Devil’s dillweed” Becky was ‘nipped out of her mind, running around the room, knocking objects off tables, things no self-respecting cat would ever do. But the real tragedy came when she hopped into her sporty pink roadster and tried to drive home. By the time we got to her, she was sprawled out on the pavement, catatonic. So let this be a lesson: Don’t ‘Nip and Drive!

    Oh, no! Poor Becky! I hope she didn’t hurt her lovely, floofy tail!

    Wait – this really happened? I mean the proof is right there in living color. Poor Becky! Such a lovely young pussy cat’s life destroyed by Nip.

    Coincidentally, I am currently listening to the Gastropod podcast episode on weed edibles.

    At least she wasn’t driving on the evil weed.

    They tried to make her go to rehab – she said meow, meow, meow!
