Small Cat Joins Occupy Erie
https://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid=1549302270719&set=a.1368386387935.39080.1779981491&type=1&theater


Hi, my name is TopShelf. I am a small black inkspot kitty. I have joined the Occupy Erie movement, and I sleep on the top shelf of a bookrack in my blanky. I don't know how long I will be here, until my demands are met. First, I want food. 3 times a day and whenever else I want it.And I demand wet cat food at least once a day. How would you like to eat nothing but dry cereal? Also, I demand the right to nap, which is most of the time when people aren't petting me, which as a liberal cat, I tolerate - to an extent. I also demand the legalization of catnip. I am tired of cats being prosecuted for medicinal catnip use. I have also joined the cat anti-defacation league, and we demand our litter be changed daily, with organic litter. We call for an end to the subserviance of dogs to the 1%. Unlike them, we don't live to feed the egos of our owners. We are proud, independent, and think for ourselves. Peace and meows. :)

8. there, there
I have posted a kitty pic above for you. Perhaps TopShelf is a magic kitty, and you have to come to the Occupation at the Erie Gazebo (Gazeboville) to see her in person. :)

9. KEEP CATNIP LEGAL
Scratch the eyes out of the fat cats who want to outlaw catnip and throw you in kitty jail, TopShelf. Good kitty.

11. Awww, I love cats!
Not all dogs are subservient to the 1%, though! Maybe TopShelf would get along well with the Greek riot dog? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-_SXUlQYPM

15. I love dogs too
In the late 70sI was owned by an english (not american) stafforshire terrier. He tried to teach me the meaning of the words love, gameness, and utter devotion. I was barely 21 then. I am in my. 50s now and am only beginning to understand those lessons.
