Perhaps she's trying to telephone you

Mrs. Andrews had a young cat, and it was the cat's first winter. One evening it was outside when it began to snow heavily. Mrs Andrew looked everywhere and shouted its same, but she did not find it, so she telephoned the policed and said, "I have lost a small black cat. Has anybody found one?"

"No, madam,? said the policeman at the other end.

"But cats are really very strong animals. They sometimes live for days in the snow, and when it melts or somebody finds them, they are quite all right."

Mrs. Andrews felt happier when she heard this "And," she said,"our cat is very clever. She almost talks."

The policeman was getting rather tired. "Well then," he said, "why don't you put your telephone down? Perhaps she is trying to telephone you now."
