Yes, her cat, as in kitty cat, the animal, feline, has fur AND four legs, goes "meow".

Mrs. Slocum's pussy is named Tiddles. I forget which episode tells this.

I knew it waws Mrs. S b4 I even opened the link. My fav or her "P" escapades is when she's on the CB and talks about her "P". You can hear the huge wreck happen in the background lol.

 

[toggleswitch]

See, her "P" really DOES have teeth....and bad breath.

 

[toggleswitch]

Speaking of bad breath..........

Ai que gatita linda........con tan much pelo.

Actually the "P" word comes from the corruption of the French word *poisson* which is nearly unpronouncable to an Anglo-phone.

Still, in France to this day it is EXTREMELY bad form to use the word *poisson* and a woman's name in the same sentence.

They covered all her Puss_ except the main one:

"Mr. Henry.........., leave my puss_ alone!"

If you've seen that one, hit me with a byte!!!
LOL

French Insults

Poisson is the all encompassing French word for fish.

And it goes something like swimming, women and fish, but of course, a lady, like me, could never utter such things.
