A Panzerism

 Panzer on being clever:
 
Mom's been giving this kitty eye drops twice a day.
 
I can tell you it doesn't really hurt ...
 
but ...
 
I yowl and whimper ...
 
My very best abused cat routine ...
 
because when she's done ...
 
I get a treat.
 
Yogurt!
This is a cat joke about getting eyes, then getting yogurt as a treat and how to continue to get the yogurt when the eye drop treatment ends.
Would her mascara work?
 
I love yogurt!
 
Today is my last eye drops day. 
 
I want to extend the yogurt treats, but I don't know how to make my eyes look like I need more drops.
