What a funny story!
This is married life. I have two cats myself and I have to clean after them. My husband does the same, no questions asked. I liked the ending of this story. You know what they say: Happy wife, happy life!

Thank goodness I was young enough to be married during the feminist 50/50 marriage-go-round. This is the time when everything was 50/50: Since both my husband and I were breadwinners, we'd take turns cooking, washing the dishes, laundry, baby, you name it. However, "Darlin, you cat puked? Whoever saw it happen cleaned it up.
I really enjoyed this. It was well-written and entertaining.

I truly enjoyed this. Since I just discovered cat puke on my pocketbook, this is timely.
This is a fun read. I like how when it comes to cleaning puke, it is "your cat!"
A wonderful well-written story!
Best wishes,
Mary

That is married life in a nutshell. It's total compromise if the marriage is on good footing. You did an excellent job as always, and I enjoyed reading it. Have a wonderful Sunday. Shirley

Cleaning up puke is not an easy thing no matter if you are a woman or a man. If it is a wife, I think they are most apt to clean up the mess instead of going back and forth because they are used to cleaning up messes.

Hello Terry,
It's a LOVELY piece of Humor Fiction having lucid as well as perfectly matching the theme phraseology, captivating/natural flow throughout from the very beginning up to the end, and depicting in an interesting / humorous way the chitchat between husband and wife targeting their pet - the cat/its side effects!
LAUDABLE Attempt!
[ It deserves to be honored with SIX STARS, but Alas! I'm out of the allotted quota now. ]

I love this! LOL! It sounds like she had all the right answers as to why she couldn't, or wouldn't, clean up the puke! I never had to clean it up, my hubby had to clean mine as well as the cat's when I tried to clean up. The only sick or poo I could ever clean up, was from my babies! That's different. Lol. I enjoyed reading your story, and tips of how to get out of things. Well done! :)) Sandra xx

Thanks. That brings back memories so I know where you are coming from. Our cat always chose the wee hours to puke, and as my wife sleeps like a corpse and I hover on the edge of wakefulness (often dreaming of buzz saws then waking to my true loves snores) I always had the job of trotting downstairs and cleaning up. He often did his business in the far corner of the cupboard under the stairs. After much grunting and cursing, I would return to bed when my wife would finally awaken and ask 'did you bring a drink up?' Of course, I hadn't.

Hahaha! Zoey was an amazing woman! You two were so perfect for each other. So I need to ask; was she always one step ahead of you with just the right defense of why you should clean it up, or could it be that you were such a good guy, that you let her win much of the time? Lol, I am banking on the answer to my questions being yes, to both. Your stories about the two of you are so tender and completely filled with love that my heart still aches for you, with every one of them that I read. This one being no different, as I feel so much like I knew her. Thank you for sharing another piece with us..... And dang it Terry, you did it to me again.
I just thought to look and saw that this was fiction and I am not going to change my review because you are just too convincing. I just need to learn to look before I leap into my review. So please tell me there were parts that were your life with her.
I feel kinda stupid, but just can't take back the way your story made me feel.
As Roy would say, beautifully written and blessings my good friend!
BTW; I am not the only one tho, cause no matter how many places that I write in authors notes or on the description that mine is fiction, there are always many that choose to ignore that and comment on my 'true poem' LOL Thanks Terry!

    First, thank you for the six stars!!! And I don't know why I posted it as fiction. I guess I missed it. The only fiction is that I never played golf. The rest of it was true. Thank you for catching it.

    By the way. I will post my last interview tomorrow with an obnoxious jerk, but I am committed to it anyway. I will also create a contest you might find interesting to think about entering. Terry.

That's a good one, Terry. I'm going to read this over a few times and possibly use some of your ideas. I've got to be careful though. My wife has an almost foolproof method of threatening me with my life if I should disagree with something she has said.
