Cat tale

[GOPFighter]

See the picture below? The one on the right is Skipper, a stray who loves to be petted. It took weeks before she would let us touch her and now she can't get enough attention.

Sunday morning the weather was perfect, warm enough for coffee and a good book (actually it was a trashy novel, but it WAS good). Skipper jumped into my lap and I petted her while she purred and stretched and nuzzled and slept with a big smile on her face. Cat heaven. After about an hour she jumped down and I hardly noticed, but about twenty seconds later I heard a big commotion under the deck, a pause, and then little kittie footsteps up to the deck. I looked up and there was little Skipper with a chipmunk in her mouth - headfirst, with it's little chipmunk feet clawing the air.

Skipper sat down and ate that sucker from head to tail. Fur, guts, bones, everything. I gagged, my wife screamed, and Skipper seemed quite unaffected.

Damn cat. :eyes:

1. What a little cutie!

Chipmunk breath aside.

Who's her friend on the left?

4. On the left is...

Angel. No one can touch Angel. Two weeks ago Angel finally climbed on my lap and laid down and strated purring. Wow, a first! So I carefully (holding my breath) reached out ever so slowly...and touched her. Angel hit afterburner in a single split-second! And dug her claws into my leg doing it.

I haven't seen her since!

2. She was hungry!

A girl has to eat but hey I would have :puke:.

Both Cats are beautiful!

3. Pretty stingy cat, if you ask me, they usually

have at least enough manners to make sure they give you half. When I lived in the country many years ago, my cats expressed their appreciation for 'Daddy' by bring me offerings, like half a mouse (usually the rear half-maybe a message?), or half a baby rabbit. The only things they didn't share were the occasional insects that got into the house, andthey made a point of bringing those into the bathroom when I was relaxing in a hot tub, and crunching them up right in front of me.:P
