Well folks...today is the official "Lost The Cat Day" here at The Homeplace. Got home from work and Chubba-Dubba (wurfless no good fer nuthin' feral female feline kitten..) greets me at the door. I give her a noogie and head about my toils. Open up the fridge door and grab a beer......20 minutes later I hear a faint meeeoooowwwwww! Open up the fridge and find all my leftovers scattered about..and 1 feral cat cold and grinning. "GIT OUT'A THERE YE DUMB CAT!!"...I scold as I slam the door. I head back to the bathroom and turn on the shower and find myself peering down at a wet and rumpled kitten..ears layed back and hissing at me. Arrrgh! "GIT OUT'A THE SHOWER!"..I bellow! I'm a somewhat private person...I do not like cats in the shower with me!!! Time to sit back in the recliner....a wet and perturbed kitten launches itself unto my lap and insists on giving me a "nosey'. You cat fanciers know what that is...I am not a cat fancier!! This is when a cat insists on walking right up into yer face and touching it's nose to yer beak. Don't know what this signifies...don't care. I resent her paws being in my supper plate...I know her paws have been in the litter-box!! Her nose is wet...and covered in kitty-snot. Arrrgh! Before heading to bed I open up the cabinets and take inventory and make out my grocery list. Need.... Old Bay Seasoning...vinigar...garlic...close the door to the cabinet. Head back to bed and.....meeeeoooowwww! ^&$#@(^$!!...cat is stuck in the lazy-susan...in the kitchen cabinets!!! Return back to the kitchen...open up the cabinet doors....extricate the wurfless feral feline female cat from the lazy-susan and head down the hallway. Finally.....I'm headed down the hallway..this no-good ball of fur swatting at my heels. "Time to go to bed!"...I growl. I pull back the sheets and set the alarm..tuck in the pillows and make sure all is right in my world. And then.....purrrrrrr.....hack...sneezze....she joins me. A fuzzy head tucks under my chin..tiny paws knit at my blankets..and we drift off into slumber...together. Mind ye...I don't like cats..they have their job to do 'er the're out in the snow!! Audie.....zzzzzzzz...the Oldfart.....
