W: Yeah. My leg still hurts from the 1ast incident.
M: Hey,he's just a playful little beast. He likes to bark a little,and his bark is worse than his bite. Just feed him a can of dog food a day,and make sure he has plenty of water in his dish.
[Oh]And then,take him for a walk around the block.
W: Well,how about if I just throw a Frisbee over the fence to give him some exercise?Wouldn't that work?
M: Ah,and then,he likes to watch the 3:00 soap opera on Channel 4[What?]…and brush his teeth after you give him some doggie treats around 4:00. And,then brush his fur for about twenty minutes. He tends to shed this time of year.
[Ah,what?]And then scratch him around the ears. Otherwise,he feels neglected.
W: Man,you really pamper your dog. Is that it?
M: Well,and then there's Claws.
W: Claws?Who's Claws?
M: Oh,he's the cat we adopted from the animal shelter,but he's a little temperamental.
W: What do you mean“temperamental”?
M: Well,he has mood swings[Mood swings?],but he's been doing better since he's been going to the animal therapist. So,be sure to feed him a half cup of cat food two times a day[What?A therapist…],and don't forget to put on some soft classical music during his nap time at 2:40 P. m. But don't let him out of the house because he might run away and chase the neighbor's dog.
W: You have some high-maintenance animals.
M: Not really. And,don't forget to change the cat 1itter daily,or he might have an accident on the carpet.
[Oh,great. ]And finally,there's Buttercup.
W: Buttercup?Who's Buttercup…?I'm afraid to ask.
M: Ah,she's a sweetie[What?]…if you know how to handle her right.
[Oh,great. ]Wait. Let me get her for you. Here you are.
W: That's…That's a snake…[Hold her. ]That's a big snake with big fangs. Does the snake go to a therapist,too?
M: Of course not…just an anger-management class.
W: Oh!What?
M: I'm joking. Buttercup is a very docile creature,and she never bites anyone she likes. If she doesn't. you'll know because she starts hissing and staring at you…. kind like what she's doing now.
W: Well,I'm leaving. You must be going out of your mind to think I'm going to watch a zoo full of misunderstood animals. You'd better hire some professional help'cause I wouldn't watch them even if you paid me a million dollars.
