Our three cats live outdoors.
We feed them on one of the porches based on the time of year. During the winter we feed them on the front porch because it is covered. Now we have switched to feeding them on the side porch, but the cats can’t seem to deal with it.
Every day we feed them and call to them, but they don’t come. Laura has to walk them around from the front porch to the side porch.
I had just fed the cats. Laura was walking them around.
Not realizing Lena was standing right behind me, I said,
What a bunch of dingbats.
Lena said,
Dad. They aren’t dingbats, they’re dingcats.
Yeah, that too.
