CAT-astrophe averted
It's hard to believe Mr. Slam and Robin are from the same litter. Well, they're both pinheads. That's about it. But their pinheadedness is markedly different.
On Monday, Mr. Slam saw the open front door... and an opportunity. An opportunity foiled only by the flimsy screen door. His response? Head-butt screen door, try to slip through the brief opening he just created, narrowly fail, meow pitifully, repeat. Since the front of the house is enclosed by a white picket fence, I eventually granted the cat his wish, and he lunged after a lizard. He missed, but seemed more than content to chew on plants, purr and roll in the dirt, all within the safety of his fenced-in playground.
Deborah then decided that Robin would love to join her brother. Yes, Robin, the cat who spends most of her time asleep on the bed or the back of the closet... she will LOVE the outdoors.
Debz carried the cat outside, dropped her on the ground, and the damn cat inexplicably bolted. She wriggled halfway through the fence, got her ass stuck for a couple of seconds and then was free. And terrified. She ran around the back of the house, puffed her tail out and yowled. Fortunately, she allowed herself to be rescued.
Mr. Slam continued searching for his lizard.
Pinheads.
