How fireworks saved my cat ...
Last night during the stiff breezes here in South Florida, I heard the
front door go 'KA-THUMP'. (apparently I hadn't shut it TIGHT the last time I went out). I immediately thought "Oh crap ... Cosmo." (cosmo is my 13 year-old INDOOR cat) I got up and opened the door, and sure enough, he was out there, 6 feet from the door, lookin' around, sniffin' leaves, sniffin' the air, then lookin' back AT ME *as if he does this all the freakin' time. I went out there and he yelled at me when I tried to get him back in the house. And if you wanna see something funny, watch a middle-aged, one-legged man trying to retrieve a very DEFIANT cat ... in the dark (10:30 at night). He kept yelling at me with that short "Ma!" sound. I was kind of laughing. Then I finally said, "Okay f***ker, you're outside now." and went back in the house. I kept checking, and he was always out there, close to the house, and always yelling at me. About 20 minutes later, the fireworks at the ball park right down the road went into their finale. BOOM BOOM BOOM ... B-B-B-B-BOOM! I laughed because I knew ... and went to the door and sure enuf, there he was with that "Oh ****! oh ****! oh ****! ..." look on his face and he came RUNNING back into the house. But then he kept going to the door to try that again. If he only had opposable thumbs. The little *******. (I say that with love) |

I never thought I'd hear a story where someone was grateful for the effect fireworks had on their pet! :) -- Joyce To email me, remove the triple-X from my user name. ^..^ |

(I say that with love) Hehehehehe - life with a b*st*rd c*t is never boring :-) Glad to see a fellow 'sufferer' - I miss mine so much. I'm glad Cosmo came home.

Oh thanks for the welcome. I have been here before, usually with a
different name/email to keep the spammers off my tail. My cats are Dusty (my angel), Cosmo (the old man) and I used to have Oreo (RIP, baby boy). I post stories here once in a while, sometimes I read a story just to get smile. Here are pics of the kidz: http://homepage.mac.com/cosmotcat/ca...ery_index.html -John R.

Yeah, we miss Oreo. He was a unique kitty.
Cosmo is the cool guy of the house, and Dusty is the bossa me. On 2008-04-07 10:20:02 -0400, "Matthew" said: You have beautiful masters there Oreo was so cute as a kitten.

With the Cosmo cat, it's usually very evident that he just woke up. That cat can SLEEP. Sometimes he is so sunk into the comforter on the bed he looks like he is part of the comforter. Dusty usually sleeps with one eye open (when I am home) not letting me out of her sight. |
