Yesterday's Condo
Sorry I didn't post last night... late night at work, walked in the door, poke/feed/shoot, walk back out the door for a softball doubleheader. Was tired and sore when I got home, so did a half an hour on the inversion table and the hit the hay! Willie was at +115 around +5 and then food bounced up to 133.
Much drama at 5:00am this morning. Somebody has been hanging out with his buddy Leo again! Willie wakes me up whining really oddly in bed. I freaked out, thinking something was really wrong. Turn on the light just as he jumps down from the bed. His back was turned, and he was walking funny, so I panicked.
Yeah, he had brought a mouse to bed. :shock: :shock: :shock:
He chases the mouse out into the hallway. I throw on a t-shirt and grab a container from the kitchen and a piece of cardboard laying around. Mouse is hiding under a pile of laundry, so throw it piece by piece into a basket until the mouse can be trapped and thrown into the front yard. All doors to outside were closed, meaning this one was actually in the house. ick, ick, ick.
Poor guy isn't the brightest... he spent a good hour looking for it after that, coming back in for cuddles just before shot time. We discussed what an awesome specimen of a cat he is, but also the fact that while I was very proud of his mouse catching prowess, they were forbidden in the bed. He purred and smiled.
PT appointment here shortly, and am working at home on a project I just got late yesterday and that has to be filed in court tomorrow... by an attorney who refuses to use her computer and has no knowledge of the applicable area of the law. Going to be a long two days.
Know that I"m sending green vibes to all our kitty friends and their beans, and saying prayers for Patti as she and her family grieve the loss of sweet Boris. We'll be lighting a candle for him today.
Happy Wednesday, everyone!
