Meow Mischief

The parents of a newly married couple arrived at their home for their first Thanksgiving meal as newlyweds.

One of the dads noticed the turkey thawing in the sink in cold water with a dish drainer and a rubber mat on top of it all.

Her dad inquired why she was thawing the turkey that way.

She said that was the way her mom thawed the bird.

The mother’s response: “Well, yes, but we had a cat!”
