Lessons From Mark Edwards (or "A Triple Dose of Cat")...
We all know that cats are scroungers, right?
Well, there's some neighbourhood cats that really like my garden - it's "wild", with uncut grass, and lots of bugs. There's Ginger - a neutered tom, with a collar and a magnetic cat flap 'key'. He's taken to coming indoors, vocally demanding some ham, and then curling up on a chair for a couple of hours. Heck, he's even scratching the carpet to mark his territory! Then there's Blackie - an all-black long-haired variety, with beautiful golden eyes, who seems to be Ginger's soul mate. He seems to prefer kibble - though Ginger does let him share the ham, if I've put some out in a bowl. I swear the two communicate with each other telepathically - because if one is at the kitchen door, the other will appear soon after. When both of them come to see me, I call it a "double dose of cat". This evening, Ginger was curled up on a chair in my living room - Blackie had also been in, but only as far as the kitchen - and he didn't want any food tonight. I'm sure he lives in a house at the end of my garden, because I've seen my neighbours in the street telling him to go home! Anyway, a ginger cat appeared at the living room door - I thought it was Ginger, and assumed he'd got down off the chair - so I spoke to him, and said "goodbye, thanks for coming!". But... I looked across to the chair, and Ginger was still curled up asleep! "Ginger 2" is smaller, and doesn't have a white bib or a collar - but he must surely be related :-) Tonight, I got a triple dose of cat. I must have been taking lessons from Mark :-) -- MatSav |
