This is definitely a myth. Rover will eat his late master/mistress just as
quickly as Tabby.

look bob, i read it on the internet so i'm pretty damn sure it's true.
cecil adams is the man, btw. the difference is a few days .. the cat waits
one, the dog several. i used to read the straight dope on my greyhound
bus trips to washington, d.c. back in the day. reading my quote above i
did state it incorrectly .. they both eat 'em. cats are just quicker on the
draw. eerily quick methinks.

I was trying to make a reference to the Marilyn Monroe line "you just
put your lips together and blow," but from the responses either I was
too obscure or misunderstanding me was too much fun.

That's ok with me. If I'm dead and unable to take care of my pet, it
wouldn't bother me a bit if they had to eat me to stay alive. I realize
that my relatives might be a bit upset when they found out, but that's
how I feel.

Uh, Lauren Bacall. To Humphrey Bogart. I'm going to guess at the movie
from memory and will probably get it wrong, but here goes, "To Have
and Have Not."
