by wendy thornton around five oclock this rooming along came cat with oraething to ull mi she walked across the top of the bed purring all the while but instead of following the usual route down my

her tall tnb is the only means of identification in the dark at all six of our cats have alls of different jonhlng eo jp lengths ftuffinettet and textures after five minutes of winding this tall round and round i was slumped no longer sleepy and coining to the firm conclusion that there was a strange cat in bed with me finally i got up turned on the light and was quite arfiuee to see utile cat sitting bedde the pillow all aqulnty and bllnky in the sudden ikht i had ruled her out right at the first becsuse the is ytevbk a forward kind of a cat mostly the will sit and ttare at a person with her perpetually worried look if you retch out to pat her she will shrink back with an imploring look at though you are making indecent advances to her a helpless female if you insist on patting her she will endure ll but her eyes will keep saying i would rather be left alone if you dont mind picking utile cat up ll out of the question as loon as her feel leave the ground she will stiffen and dig her claws into whatever is handyuiually the pickertipper bur now and then the will hop in tanteonea up take two or three tumi then settle down purring jutt to show that she does have her good days it might teem a puzzle why we keep such a neurotic cat but i figure much of her trouble is our own fault when she wai a kitten the was sitting with her back to one of the tirei on the car one day when gord itarted backing up although the was halfflattened by the tune gord heard me hollering the was uninjured and gradually popped back into shape that wis the beginning of her distrust of people the

the floor fathers ear labelled the next tounda mouse dragging a biscuit under the dresterand gord hopped out of bed to get a mousecatcher little cat was hairgrown kit at the time we figured it wai about time the started timing her keep and put her behind the dretter with the mouse but the lust looked at it in amazement as it ran past her as all the mother cats previous training had been outside perhaps the just didnt expect to tee a mouse in a house but then the collected herself and jumped after it there then began one of the usual cat and mouse games little cat would let the mouse run out from under the bed and into a comer right by my head then would leap on it and carry it back under the bed to lit it go again after 10 minutes of this i couldnt stand it any longer it pttrsonals some
