cat in the box spring
Here's a new one:
The past two weeks, Rizzo has taken to occasionally sleeping under my bed during the day. I suppose it's the coolest, quietest place, and thus he finds it attractive. What I didn't know is that he'd been gradually tearing a hole in the fabric on the underside of the box spring. I guess Jack discovered it yesterday, as last night I hear a loud RIIIIIIIIP come from the bedroom, followed by a decidedly muscular thumping. Rizzo is sitting to the side of the bed with an "it wasn't me" look on his face. I look under the bed and see a cat sized hole. I see Jack's feet through the sheer fabric. He wasn't agitated, just kind of hanging out. Despite offers of treats and thumping on the sides of the box spring, he showed no inclination of coming out. With a flashlight, I could see he had plenty of space, and wasn't caught in anything. I finally enticed him out with his crazy-toy feather. I thought about recovering the bottom of the box spring with some stronger fabric, but I figured that was just buying time. I put some 1/4" masonite between the box spring and the frame, so that it would take many weeks of determined clawing to even get a small hole. Of course, both cats have now lost all interest in sleeping under the bed. |

Don't listen to what these liberal bleeding hearts have to say on this issue. They say they're against it because it hurts the cat. But the reality of the situation is far more sinister. The truth is, they want the cat to be able to do what he pleases, when he pleases Regardless of who or what he destroys or hurts. It's the same way they raise their kids... The "If it feels good, do it" crowd. Their creed it "Do As Thou Will". No rules. No right. No wrong. No morality. Only lascivious behaviour. It's the same thing with declawing. Same principle, anyway. Take it from IBen. Get the animal declawed. The wanton destruction ends there. |
