Max on ...Punxsutawney Phil -- Groundhog Day


Have you met my good friend Phil? He's famous for seeing (or not seeing) his shadow on Groundhog Day. He's a good guy and it's not his fault, but What's the big deal with groundhog day?

I mean... is a groundhog the most popular pet in the world?

No, I think not... not even close.

What IS the most popular pet? The Cat of course.

But, does the Cat have a national day. No.

So, no offense to Phil, but what I propose is that Phil step aside this year and let me poke my head out tomorrow at dawn. Let me look around for my shadow. And when I see it or don't see it, let those wonderful gentlemen in their long coats and funny hats in Punxsutawney hold me up in triumph, so the whole crowd can cheer. After all, I know what a shadow is and can identify it just as easily as Phil.

So, what ya say? Give Ponxsutawney Max a try this year.

That is too cute, Max! You look much better than a groundhog and are much more fun :-).

I vote for Ponxsutawney Max too. you are much more bootiful! Besides - why can't it be "cat" day instead of groundhog day?
