“Hello Kitty.”
I already have a cat, thanks anyway.
I could have used you in my last position.
Meooowww, Grooowwwl.
“So this is a future King of the Jungle”.
Well, we know he loves cats, so why not?
“Fabulous!”
“Zeez New Swiss Guard Uniforms Are Something Else.”
“OK, who’s the wise guy? I said Lamb of God”
“I should have been more clear. When I said that I didn’t like *clown* masses, that was intended to cover all circus-related liturgy.”
Msgr. Gansewein to the lion cub guy: “Good move on bringing the towel … that’s his favorite outfit and he would hate it if it had gotten stained.”
Benedict to lion cub:
“And do you have any weird positions on recent history that we should know about prior to allowing you to play the lion of Judah in the upcoming theater play?”
“But they told me there was a Pope Leo!”
“Nein, not mine. Try St. Mark.”
“We will call you Fanta.”
PS — good one, Fr. Dan!
“My dear king, I am the vicar of the Catholic Church – yes, with an “h”. No cats.”
1) “Great Lion of God!” (apologies to Taylor Caldwell!)
2) “You wouldn’t have any spare Rotweilers, would you?”
“Although I disapprove of your lifestyles, Siegfried and Roy, I do love me some kittens.”
Lion cub to Pope: This guy put a kink in my tail and I’m not at all happy about it!
“I’m all for lion-Christian reconciliation. The Colosseum’s a church now, you know.”
on a serious note, I know the cat’s got trained handlers, but that still makes me nervous — esp. the papist’s picture, in which the cat is making some serious noise.
“Aslan?”
“Please tell me his name isn’t Timothy”
(ok, that’s obscure)
