Cats are slick creatures, total charmers. I know this because my three cats play me all the time, and I knowingly fall for them most of the time. Other times, I see right through their ploys.
If cats were to be mingling about in the singles scene, I imagine they’d be total smooth talkers, spouting the cheesiest pick up lines ever. Here are eight I think they’d use.
1. “Are we in the litter box? ‘Cause I’m diggin’ you.”
Can’t you just see some sleek tabby in a leisure suit and gold chains using this one?
2. “My vet says I’m lacking in vitamin U.”
Would you fall for this one? No, me neither. “I’ve had enough of U, thank you very much.”
3. “Let’s make like fabric softener and snuggle.”
Now, this one is clever. If I were a single feline lady, I might take the bait. If he were cute, that is … and neutered.
4. “Are you a bag of treats? ‘Cause I wanna sample you.”
Oh, my — this is quite forward. I think a kitty would have to be wearing catnip goggles to succumb to this line.
5. “I’m not high on nip, I’m just intoxicated with you.”
This would surely be spoken by a ladies’ man who gets around. He thinks he’s slick but most of the females have seen him heavy petting in the bushes with the fast girls named Roxie and Misty. He thinks he’s totally hot, but he’s totally not.
6. “My love for you is like a hairball — I can’t hold it in.”
To which she replies, “Gross. Go away.”
7. “Are you part beaver? Because daaaaam.”
This could send mixed messages, don’t you think? If I were on the other side of this pick up line, I might read into it and worry that perhaps my front teeth were too big or my tail was misshapen. Think twice before using interspecies pick-up lines.
8. “Can you take me to the vet, because you just took my breath away.”
Sassy comebacks: “On your way to the vet, stop by the store and get yourself some crackers for all that cheese.” Or, “While you’re at the vet, you better get a prescription for Clavamox because I saw you in the bushes with Roxie.” Burn.
9. “Do you live in a corn field? Because I’m stalking you.”
What? That’s just plain creepy. If some tom were to flirt with me using this line, I’d run to the nearest linen closet and nap on a stack of towels until he’d left the party. Just ew.
10. “You must have been sleeping in the sun, because you are HOT.”
How about coming up with something original? I suspect most kitties would roll their eyes and walk away from this come on, and that’d be totally COLD.
