Well, I told you about my few little excursions over the fence. Staff person has decided, and tells me quite frequently now, that I cannot be trusted. So, no matter how much I whine, no matter how utterly pathetic I am when I pick up my little stuffed mouse and wander around the house with it in my mouth making these eerie, freakishly loud noises...she ignores me. Especially in the mornings. I finally give up and go take a nap somewhere, then sometime mid-morning she gets a book and calls me and we go out and I've got, like, 30 minutes of outside time. PLUS, if I go hide somewhere she can't see me (like in the bushes so I could catch that thing with feathers! More later on that!) she gets up and walks around until she finds me. Very frustrating, especially when I'm in huntress mode.
Now, about the thing with feathers! I've been trying to catch one for years but they're just so darn fast; not to mention they fly and I don't. So, I was hiding in this bush over on the side of the yard, and staff person went inside to refill her water glass. A buncha those feathered things landed on this thing hanging up she keeps seed in, and when staff person walked back out, they all flew off - including one who flew straight INTO THE BUSH I WAS HIDING IN! I jumped up and caught that sucker! Staff person came running over and tried to grab me, but I ran up on the deck and was 'this close' to disappearing under a chair. She caught me though, and hauled me out by my back legs. I was so surprised she caught me, I dropped the dang thing and it flew away. I was crushed. My first feathered thing catch and she wouldn't even let me keep it!
Oh, last Saturday my staff person got up and unwrapped some things so I could have the cool crinkly paper. One thing was this...I don't know...THING...that she eventually took out in the back yard to dig up that viney stuff she calls 'plaguey Asian Jasmine'. Anyway, it had all this colored paper wrapped around it and she untaped each end and pulled out what was inside and put the paper on the floor - so now it's like this long paper tube-y thing. You know us cats and our curiosity; I crawled inside of it. I heard staff person and the guy who stays in the front bedroom just laughing hysterically...then she shows me this. Probably not my best angle, but hey - it IS a picture of me!
