Default Miss Chloe............

I haven't had much time to read the group lately, so I'm sending purrs out
to all who need them.

I *do* have a story to tell, though. (chuckle)

We had a friend over this past weekend (I worked, but he's a friend of my
hubby's so they got a chance to hang out). I got off of work Saturday night
and wasn't quite tired yet. I had to do the "unwind" thing, you know. So,
I was sitting up in bed reading, when I hear this shrill cat scream. It
sounded like a cat being beaten or something. Then I hear "Christy,
Christy!" from our friend who had fallen asleep on the couch.

I ran into the living room to see Miss Chloe, arms stretched apart in
crucifix position, hanging from the side of the couch! I had to lift up her
body to ease up the pain in her shoulders in order to unclaw her from the
couch fabric.

We've always said that she's not too bright and this act proves it. There's
a reason why we call her Miss Sticky Paws. This is not the first time she's
gotten stuck, but both paws at the same time? Arms totally stretched apart?
It alarmed me at the time, but I had to laugh my *ss off afterwards. She
was no worse for wear and immediately ran into the back bedroom. I had to
wake my husband up to tell him the story and we shared a great laugh. Maybe
you'd have to know this cat to fully understand the humor, but if you knew
all the dumb situations she puts herself in, you'd have a good chuckle, too.
:~)
