Sammy - big moth hunter
Sammy has been very active this today. She had all the cupboards open
when I came home for lunch, and again this afternoon when I was done for the day. Once I turned on the computer I noticed that she was checking behind all the furniture, including climbing up the entertainment center to check behind the speakers. Finally she flushed her prey, which turned out to be a fairly large moth. They both procedured to the bedroom. A few minutes later I heard a thud in the bedroom - nothing major like the time she climbed up and managed to knock half the books off a shelf, just a medium thud. When I got up to check we passed in the doorway, she was on her way to the kitchen, me to check for damage in the bedroom. Turned out she had been checking the shelf in the closet. I suspect she leaped up, landed on a blanket, which instead of staying in place like any decent landing pad had slid off and deposited both on the floor. Anyway, I put it away I came back to enquire as to whether or not she had caught the nasty flying creature. I could tell that it was still on the lose, since she was now stationed on top of the Brita water filter I keep on top of the fridge looking around intently. I'm not sure where she's gotten to now, as I was just in the kitchen and she has moved on, but am keeping an ear cocked for any unusual noises - hoping for small to medium thuds and nothing major. -- Steve Touchstone, faithful servant of Sammy, Little Bit and Rocky [remove Junk for email] Home Page: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/index.html Cat Pix: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/animals.html |

My Sammy manages to produce quite a lot of those. The last one was my 4' tall victorian doll (a frequent victim of assault, poor dear, due to the feathers, lace, and ribbons on her attire). When I came into my sitting room she was laying on her side, her hoop skirt was over her head, her long lace undies were showing for all the world to see, and her feathered hat was halfway across the room (the feathers were looking decidedly chewed).

What a shame. Isn't there any way to kitty-proof it other than putting it away in a closet? Regards and Purrs, O J |
