So you think you own your cat. Wrong! Cats own their people. They’re in charge, which is why they won’t obey us. So says feline aficionado Molly Brandenburg, an expert on ”meow-speak” who spent years analyzing our furry friends to determine how they think, and why they do the wacky things they do.

This highly humorous guest, who has delighted cat lovers with her sardonic line drawings, will equally delight studio audiences with her take on:

• The excuses cats come up with for refusing to obey their people, such as “I’m shedding,” “I’m thinking deep thoughts” and “Look, I’m busy, pal!”

• The real reasons why cats give their owners dead rodents as gifts — it’s the feline
equivalent of bringing someone flowers or a bottle of wine.

• How cats have helped humanity through history, by eliminating animals and insects that spread disease or destroyed crops.

• On a more serious note, our responsibility as humans to care for and spay or neuter our pets.
