So…where’s Roxie??

Posted on

Well, the cats are at their other residence  (their mom’s house) for at least a week.  I went to visit them today.  Jean Claude rushed to greet me and rubbed against me as I entered the house .  Later he instructed me (with three simple pats to the blinds)   to pull up  the blinds to the front window of my daughter’s house.  My daughter had a special cat seat built on  the window and Jean Claude sat there for awhile.  Roxie, who many of you know is always all over me when at her  other residence (my house) was no where to be found.   CCL told me later Roxie did make an appearance.  I’ll go for a visit later this week.

Dusty’s Last Stand

Posted on

My friend  Gwen told me  yesterday  the story of her family cat,  a real ferocious hussy named Dusty   Apparently birds were not enough for this tough feline.   Rabbits and other wild animals  were also in the cat’s pervue – their  remains sprayed across the back lawn of the family residence.    Seems  Dusty liked everyone else in the  family but didn’t really take too kindly to Gwen.  The menacing looking critter regularly smirked and growled at  her when Gwen returned home from school and no one else was present.  One day smirking was not  enough for Dusty  who jumped claws out and latched onto Gwen’s leg where he remained for a brief but painful  period of time.  Alas,  Dusty met a rather gruesome end.  While  travelling  the highway one bright sunny day, Dusty, according to witnesses,  was hit by a  semi truck.   Gwen upon reflection believes no mere car could have put an end to Dusty’s furious furry  fury.
