OK, so this is way long with some dialog and cues and all, but it gives so much insight into the life of our beloved little critters :-) Charles Shultz was the bomb!

Those of us with cats know that they are just as enthusiastic about suppertime as dogs!

This is from "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown". Not sure of the writer, help me out?

Snoopy (spoken): *growl* My stomach clock just went off. It's suppertime and Charlie Brown forgot to feed me. Here i lie, a withering hollow shell of a dog, and there sits my supper dish.. EMPTY! But that's alright. He'll remember. When no furry friend comes to greet him after school, then he'll remember, and he'll rush out here to the doghouse but it'll be too late. There will be nothing left but the dried carcass of the former friend who used to run and play so happily with him. Nothing left, but the bleach puppy bones of..

Charlie Brown (spoken): Hey Snoopy, Are you asleep or something? I've been standing here a whole minute with your supper.

Snoopy (sung):
Suppertime? Suppertime!
Behold the brimming bowl of meat and meal
Which is brought forth to ease our hunger
Behold the flowing flagon moist and sweet
Which has been sent to stake our thirst!

Charlie Brown (spoken): Okay, there's no need for a big production. Just get off that dog house and eat.

Snoopy (sung):
It's suppertime.
Yeah, it's suppertime.
Oh, it's sup-sup suppertime very best time of day.

It's suppertime.
Yeah, it's sup-per time.
And when suppertime comes can supper be far away?

Bring on the soup dish, bring on the cup,
Bring on the bacon and fill me up.
'Cause it's supper
Supper, supper, suppertime.

Br-r-ing on the dog food, bring on the bone
Bring on the barrel and roll me home
'Cause it's supper
Supper, supper, supper
Supper
Super, pepper upper
Supper
Super duper suppertime

'Wintertime's nice with the ice and snow
Summertime's nice with a place to go
Bedtime, overtime, half-time too
But they cant hold a candle to'
My
Suppertime
Ohhh yeahhh!
'Hello home listeners.. how are ya?'

B-r-r-ring on the hamburg, bring on the bun
Pappy's little puppy loves everyone
'Cause it's supper
supper supper supper
supper
super pepper upper
supper
super duper suppertime

Suppertime! Oh Yeah!
Suppertime! Bring on the food.
Suppertime! bring on, bring on the
hamburg
Suppertime! Bring on, bring me
some hotdogs
Suppertime! Bring on, bring on the
doctor!

Snoopy (wild riffling improvisation):
bring on bring on
gimme food gimme water gimme somethin to chew
gimme food gimme water gimme somethin to do

Charlie Brown (spoken): NOW CUT THAT OUT! Why can't you eat your meal quietly and calmly like any other dog?

Snoopy (very softly): So what's wrong with making mealtime a joyous occasion?

(boldly, broad tempo, full voice):
Supper,
Supper, supper,
Suppertime!!!

Amazing capture -- I love the cats in all shapes and sizes. It reminds me of feeding time at the stable I used to keep my horse. The woman who owned it used to rescue cats and at times she had upwards of thirty. They would hear the cans opening, and come running. It used to crack me up to see all those tails in the air, running in the same direction.

How wonderful. Anything reminiscent of Charles Schulz or any part of the Peanuts gang just makes me smile. I can still watch those old VHS tapes and get such a warm feeling.

My kitty wants to see me put food into her bowl, despite the fact that there is some in there from the night before. LOL Great stuff!!!
