263.0. "My cats name is Polly!" by TMCUK2::BANKS (Rule Britannia) Mon Oct 27 1986 10:04

    My daughters cat is called Polly.
    
    The other day my daughter (aged 10) asked me what a polygon was.
    I told her. Five minutes later she came back and said 'What is our
    cat when she has gone walkies?. Answer POLYGON.
    So.
    We now have POLYMER - The cat that was with the three kings
    		POLYGLOT - Cat after a big meal
    		POLYTECHNIC - When the cat starts school
    		POLYANTHUS - Flower power pussy
    
    Any more?.

      Polyunsaturated  -  After the cat fell into the swimming pool,
                          we dried her off.  Sometimes, this condition
                          is known as "polyunsaturated cat".
