' Good morning  Cat'
'Ah, Good morning , man'
' Tell me Cat, did you sleep well ' ?
'An absurd  question, me thinks,
what other way is there to sleep '

'We in humankind ,always have difficulty
in this department'
'Is that so'
'Well yes,we take medicine, pills to help
us sleep, if we're agitated, worried'
' Worried about what' ?

' Not being able to sleep'
'Anyway hows the weather outside
today Cat' ?
'The weather , does it change'  ?

'Of course it does, somedays its hot,
other days its cold, or raining,etc, etc.
'Gee,  I haven't noticed ,
' Do you take medicine for that too man' ?

' In fact, we do, they are called depression
tablets, they help us see only the sun
all the time .  Animals don't need  these
medicines, it is wasted on them , they
just don't have the brains to worry  about
lack of sleep or  depression'

' Yes, you have a valid point there ,man,
only a human being,
could come to that conclusion,
how dumb of me , to even question,
a brainy man like yourself ,
we animals have a lot to learn'
