Damn! Not again. That makes six. 
 
 This is so not fair. How does a creature that evolved to be incredibly curious only get nine lives? It's not my fault I do n't know what any of this crazy stuff is that these humans put everywhere, and the only way to find out is to give it a good lick. 
 
 I mean I was just hanging out, taking my afternoon lap around the house and checking out the long-black-snake-thing. It was n't there yesterday so naturally I had to be a dude and go play with the thing. Turns out it was one of those electricity things they've got hanging everywhere in sky that usually zap the birds when they land on them. 
 
 Yep, that's me: the loser cat with a brain smaller than a pigeon. I just had to keep up the whole ridiculous `` curious cat'' thing and feel the need to lick the mysterious electricity thing... in the rain... and lose another life. ZAP. And just like that I'm down to three. Oh and of course Pickles had to be out watching. Losing a life is *so* much better when you realize the neighborhood joke that is Pickles the poodle watched you sizzle another life away. 
 
 Whew! I can feel the return coming on. Alright, time to face Pickles and the humans. There's no way my humans did n't hear the zap. Maybe they'll feel sorry for me and let me sleep on their face tonight! There we go, find the silver lining. I feel better already. Ooo and I'm vowing here and now to take Pickles **down** this life! Sounds like a very silver plan. 
 
 Okay, Life Number Seven, here I come! It's on, Pickles.
