"i'm not psychic but my cat is"

everyday you're assaulted by commercials and advertisements for psychics and most of them are frauds. i would certainly never claim to be a psychic myself. but what i'm about to tell you will amaze even the strongest non-believers: my cat, "madam mistofofleas", can tell the future! one day i was sitting at home reading the paper and i saw an article about learning how to read the tarot cards. i always thought that would be a great skill to have so i went out and bought my very own deck of tarot cards and a helpful instruction book and sat down to work on them, but nothing happened! i reread all of the book and tried again. still no luck. it was just like me to buy a broken deck of tarot cards!
| i left the tarot cards on the table and went to fix myself a cup of tea. when i came back, they were no longer in the neat stack i had left them in. they were in one of the classic tarot layouts, what the books call the "celtic cross"! i was amazed that the cards had arranged themselves and eagerly flipped through the book to see what the cards meant. they said that there was death near me and i was going to come into money shortly. not five minutes later, the phone rang! it was a lawyer calling to tell me that my great-uncle al had died and left me $5,000.00 in his will. certainly enough, someone died and i came into money.

in my excitement, i forgot about the broken tarot card deck. i called my best friend and we talked about the money i had inherited. when i turned and looked at the table, the cat was rearranging the tarot cards. when he was finished, she jumped down and left the room. i read the message she had left and it said that i was going on a trip soon. just then my friend, who was still on the phone, suggested that we take the money and go to bermuda for vacation. greatest vacation i ever had! |

ever since then, i've learned to trust my cat's special psychic abilities and she has learned to communicate with me through the tarot cards. sometimes she's quiet for days or even months, but then she'll go pick up the cards, bring them to the table, and spell out the future. and she's never wrong! i've tried to get her to read cards for friends of mine, but she refuses to perform in front of anybody else. it certainly is amazing to have a psychic cat!
lena mckorn got "madam mistofofleas" in the denver animal shelter when she was just a six month old kitten.
lena is currently working on getting her cat over her shyness so she can take "madam mistofofleas" to las vegas to make their fortune as the world's only certified cat psychic. |  | | |
