“The Cat” by Oswald Pots

I’m positive that my cat is a double agent. I’m just uncertain of which two sides it’s playing for, though it’s obvious at this point that neither of them has my best interests at heart.

“Visiting Friends!” by Richard F. Yates

For those of you with a taste for the literary, you should give our good friends at the Very, Very, Very Short Stories blog a try! They tend to publish fascinating, often cryptic little vignettes for people who don’t have much time on their hands, and there are even contributions by members of The Primitive Entertainment Workshop on their site! Go give it a try!!!

“The Floating Cow” by Dr. Ugg (The Educated Caveman)

The cow floated approximately six feet off the ground, chewing absently and apparently unconcerned as it progressed down Henson Street.

“Damn it, Bessie! Get your ass back to the barn,” Jed yelled, then spit a gooey mass of brown liquid into the gutter.

The cow rolled its huge eyes toward the farmer, gave a low mewling grunt, then continued floating toward the edge of town.

Three weeks later, Jed received a postcard of the world’s largest ball of twine that was signed, cryptically, with the word:

“Moo.”

“Secret Cat War” by Richard F. Yates

There was a Cat War going on---a SECRET Cat War. A Cat War so secret that not even the cats who were directly involved knew anything about it. It was an awful war---and very confusing---and it ended when all the cats got bored and went to watch birds flying around outside the window.

THE END???
