Subject: Cat-again Vanagon Humor
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Recently one of my neighbors moved out and deserted her full grown female
cat.
I found this out while I was having a tire repaired and my spare carrier
was empty for a few days.
The cat moved into the tire carrier and I nearly ran over it while it was
escaping as I was backing my Westy out of the drive.
This cat has moved into my back yard and has became a real pest.
She rubs against me, marking me with her scent.
She bumps my hands and legs when I'm sitting on the patio trying to get
some affection (cat word for food).
I'm determined to win this battle.
She's just going to have to move on farther down the block and find
herself a better provider to shack up with.
I'm absolutely not going to feed, touch or encourage this cat in any way.
Its frustrating after having her play her step and fetch food routine on
me for two weeks and she's not getting skinny so she has staying power
from undisclosed food sources.
I'm not going to fetch and I'm going to win this battle. I'll see her
skeleton in that big tree outside before I'll feed this pest.
She's driving me to consider renting a dog or at least borrowing my
brothers dog for a few days.

She isn't big (the dog) but I think she can disperse that stupid cat from
my back yard.
I have little chameleons and tree frogs in my small garden and pond and
if I see foam coming from that cats mouth I'll know she's eaten one of my
very entertaining green friends.
I'm going to have a cat tail hanging on my Westy radio antennae if I
can't get this situation under control soon.
I'll have to research what Bart Simpson would do in this situation.
If I call the city pound she'll have 72 hours to live and if I drop her
off out in the country she'll be coyote poop within a week.
