Underestimating knock-knock jokes is silly

Sure, knock-knock jokes are silly by nature, but they have power. Why? Because they are likely to be remembered. Anything too silly for words may just stick a hook inside your memory forever.

Or so they say. My humans call me Kitten Precious, and I'm a cat. Mommy calls me her condo kitty, 'cause I always go with her to her bedroom when its time for her to get some sleep.

That's something I'll never figure out. How do humans do with so little sleep? And then when they do sleep, they sleep for so LONG! Why, I can go through seven catnaps and three sessions of thunder-footing through the house in the time Mom's eyes are closed.

Um, my big guy, Moe Key Man Cat, tells me I need to put my picture on here, so okay. If you click on it, you can see lots of cool kitty stuff.

But I digress. The important thing is how beautiful you can clearly see I am in my fashion photo, stretched out atop the refrigerator, soulful eyes watching you like dark liquid moonlight. Oh, am I stunning, or am I stunning.

Of lesser importance are the knock-knock jokes themselves. But still, I did say not to underestimate them, didn't I? I'm talking to you human readers now. We felines would NEVER make that mistake.

In fact, there's a whole cat fan club, the KKJR. Stands for Knock-Knock Jokes Rule. Here are two of their favorites:

1. Knock-knock! Who's there? Tabby! Tabby who? Tabby or not ta bee!

2. Knock-knock! Who's there? Purr! Purr who? Purrrr, it's cold out here!

Pretty good, huh? I got a million of 'em, I tell ya.

Oh go ahead and look at my picture again. You know you want to. Aren't I beautiful?

With quiet confidence in my inner and outer beauty,

Kitten Precious.
