Rodent Patrol Part II

you might be right. I saw the south end of a north bound yeller cat tonight. Never seen this one before.

It sure sounds like the local kitties know where the livin's good.

Tell me about it. Bud is hanging on the couch as I type this. Patch is still trying to make up her mind and Sport, is well just sport.

I think they have adopted you!

Little worried haven't seen Sport in two days. Bud and Patch have established their routines. Come in graze and hang out. I think Bud may have been a pet at one point. I'm getting ready to spoil a good relationship though. I'm going to put flea treatment on him tonight.

Is Sport the one who comes and goes with no warnings or explanations?

I think so. He was in earlier for some petting and snacks. Sport was here but I don't if he got anything to eat though.

He might have been full from a good hunt.

That or they are eating some place else. I did try to put flea treatment on him. Will try to finish tonight.

Any more sightings?

He came in for breakfast around nine this morning. Spent the day in bed got up for a snack then went out. I'll see him a couple of hours give or take. I'm Patch and Sport will show up for supper.

Hi Bud! I saw your post in a different thread. I am so happy you are here. You found the BEST meowmy there. The food lady is so nice. She takes care of all your friends too. You will love being a pet. It is so great to have them at your beck and call. Tell us all about your adventures.

Do you chase the bushy tail rodents? I see them near my birds, and I yell at them. But they are cheeky and laugh at me. I hope you can show a few of them who is really in charge. My sister says she will talk with you about hunting. She used to live outside-y, so she knows all about it. I only get to hunt rodents that get into the house.

Mouski

Hi Mouski.

I'm sort of new to the inside thing. The Food Lady is really cool about it. She does get a little testy sometimes but it's usually when late at night when my friend Patch can't make up her mind about whether she wants in or out.

Bud

Hi Mouski,

In answer to a few of your questions. Yes, I did chase the bushy tail rodents. I even caught and ate a few of them. When you're living rough, a meal is a meal.

Right now I'm hanging out in the house and having been enjoying the Giant Cat Bed. The weather is filthy right now, the rain pouring down in buckets. So it's a good day to enjoy the safety of a nice warm house. I vaguely remember what it is like. Food lady seems to think I was a pet a one point. The only downside is put some really nasty stuff on me. I was not happy, though I did notice that the fleas started to leave me. Still I didn't like it.

Enough for now. Time for a snack and a drink, then I think back to the Giant Cat Bed

Bud

Oh Bud! I hate the nasty stuff that keeps the fleas away too. I run and hide when my meowmy puts it on me. I used to have a collar that I didn't mind, but now I have to wear a collar to keep me happy. If I get stressed, I get sick-y. That is no fun.

Do the bushy tail rodents taste good? They look like they would. My caddy says he ate them when he was a kitten. He did not like them. He eats funny things though. What is a Cheeto? They are funny looking. MOL

Mouski

Thanks for letting me know about the collar Mouski. I think Food Lady will stay with the nasty stuff since I go in and out. Still I like the idea of not having things biting me.

They were okay. I like the kibble Food Lady provides. They were a lot of work to not only catch but to eat. I don't know what a Cheeto is, you would have to ask Food Lady.

Bud

I don't know anything about a Cheeto. I know a lot about corn chips. My mama may have picture of me licking one on her rectangle.

Jack

They're a soft crunchy weird looking thing.  Tia Sue

Bud, you must try chicken! My meowmy made some tonight and let me have some. I love chicken. I love fish too, but she has not shared that in a while. She says it is precious, and she does not share it very much. I do love it when she does though.

Mouski

So far Food Lady has not shared any people food. I think she eats weird things though so I might not like them. Still she makes sure I have good quality kibble. Bud

Bud, has Food Lady introduced you to catnip? My hooman likes to put some dried catnip on the floor. I roll in the catnip upon finding it on the floor.

Tortie

Hi Tortie,

Yes, she has but I haven't really been interested in it. Bud

Not all cats will be interested in catnip.

Tortie

Food Lady has both offered fresh and dried. Bud

We get dried now. My hoomans used to get fresh plants and stopped. I don't know why.
