just another day in paradise......i woke up this morning at my normal time...........about daylight. i usually wake up at this time, but i don't always get up. it totally depends on my attitude at that point and time. yep,...........that's right,...........I'm one of those!! most day's i wake up excited about what the day might hold. then there are those days that just cover my head back up.
today was one of the good days. i thought that Itty Kitty was in a rude mood this morning, because she started screaming to go outside. she paced the floor looking at the door, and would just scream. usually, she's simply meows, but today was different.
there is really something special about living in the sunshine state. especially when you first open the door in the morning, and the below freezing breeze hits you in the face, and the cat almost knocks you down going out the door!! the ground was completely covered with frost, and anything that holds water had ice formed on top. i was sure that the cat had lost her mind, but who was i to argue with her. she pretty much has the same free will that i do, and if she chose to freeze,............then so be it!!
it's been a little over six hours now, and I'm finally starting to piece together the evens of this morning. when i first woke up the cat was sitting in the window facing the back yard. she was so excited that she cleared the recliner when she jumped down. usually, she wants me to pet her when i first wake up , but today all she wanted was to get outside.
for some strange reason one of the trees out in back is filled with small congregation of singing, and chirping birds. i've never saw so many in that one tree before. right there laying under that tree is that cat. even though, she is a very patient, and skilled hunter...........i highly doubt that she caught one of those little birds, unless one of them fell dead before her.
what would she do if she caught one? would she bring it inside the house, so she could catch it again? even thought all those birds are small, I'm sure that they crap like monsters!! yeah,.............that's right,.............she would bring the little bird inside the house, so i could entertain her, because it would be my time to catch the bird!!
ha!!..............like i could catch a bird? the cat might as well get used to living with another animal in this house if she is depending on me to catch it again!!
the funny thing is that she catches lizards all the day long. i guess that they don't move quick enough. although,............they move quicker than i generally move..........go figure.......huh? well, she doesn't have a problem catching them. the funny thing is what the lizards do once she brings them inside. no matter where she puts them they will no move five feet from that area. it's like they have a shock collar on, and 3-5 feet is the limit of their boundaries.
somehow the cat has all this madness figured out, because she will place them in different spots throughout the house. when she has enough to play with the games begin. she will run frantically to each one, and slap the living hell out of it in passing!! sometimes she will slide crossed the floor, and toss it in the air, and bat it on the way back down!! i can't help but laugh while she is doing this, but i feel sorry for the lizard, because it's rare if they survive this brutal attack.
now,..........this is an extremely smart cat. she knows that i will throw the lizards back out in the yard, and she almost put an end to my participation. now,............check this out...............she has started hiding the lizards under the rugs inside of my house!!
the only reason that i figured this out was when i went to sweep my floor, and moved a rug. there must have been 20 dead lizards underneath that rug!! i knew that there was something strange going on when i would look for them, and just find a couple.
oh well,.............like i said before,...............just another day in paradise........
...............much love
