#1 A door-to-door salesman knocked on the front door of a home, and heard a faint, high-pitched, “Come in.”
He tried the door, and it was locked, so he went around to the back door. He knocked again and heard again the high-pitched, “Come in.”
As he entered the kitchen a large, mean, snarling, Doberman met him. As he plastered himself against the wall, he called out for help.
Again, he heard, “Come in.”
Sliding against the wall, he entered the living room and saw a parrot in a cage. He said, “For heaven’s sake, is ‘Come in’ all you can say?”
The parrot laughed and said, “Sic ‘im.”
#2 A man came home from work one day to find his dog with his neighbor’s pet rabbit in his mouth. The rabbit was dead, and the guy panicked. He was sure his neighbors would demand that his dog be destroyed. So he took the dirty, chewed up rabbit into the house, gave it a bath, blow-dried its fur, and put it back into the cage in the neighbor’s garage, hoping they would think it died of natural causes.
A few days later, his neighbor called across the hedge to the guy: “Did you hear Fluffy died?”
The guy stammered around a bit and said, “Um . . . no, um, what happened?”
The neighbor replied, “We just found him dead in his cage one day. But the weird thing is that the day after we buried him, we went out into the garage and a someone had dug him up, given him a bath, and put him back into the cage. There are some really sick people out there!”
