Car, Cat, They’re Just One Letter Different

Our clinic cat needs to be shaved right before winter really sets in, so I order her a pet sweater to keep her warm when the office gets chilly. It fits everywhere except the length of the belly panel, so I am taking it in with a small sewing kit we keep in a desk drawer.

Coworker: “I should get one of those for my car.”

I think she’s referring to the sweater.

Me: “What?”

Coworker: “You know, a little sewing kit for emergencies.”

Me: “Oh, I thought you meant the sweater!”

Coworker: “That’s not a bad idea, either. I should keep a sweater in the car.”

Me: *Pauses* “I thought you meant a sweater for the car to wear.”
