              The Top 9 Pet Psychological Disorders


9> Cliptoemania -- insatiable desire to have claws trimmed.

8> Border Collie Personality Disorder -- everything reminds you of
    either a sheep or a Frisbee.

7> Feline Displacement Awareness -- cat's sudden realization that
    it should be in the other room RIGHT NOW!

6> Spitzofrenia -- Excessive drooling.

5> Demintia -- catnip addiction.

4> Post-Traumatic Tress Syndrome -- result of a close shave at the
    groomer.

3> RinTintinnitus -- the perception of keys jingling, car doors
    opening, or other go-for-a-ride sounds in the ears or head when
    no external sound is present.

2> Manx Depressive Syndrome -- being really bummed out that you 
    have no tail.


          and the Number 1 Pet Psychological Disorder...


1> Moultable Personality Disorder -- Parakeet unable to function
   because it knows it's not as attractive as it used to be.
