Default "I think I like chicken"


Had some fried chicken for lunch. Little Boy was immediately in my lap,
crying for some. Apache was on the dresser, saying "What's HIS problem?"

So I picked loose a few small pieces and put them between Apache's paws.
This was priceless.

First, she pushed it away. Then she sniffed at it and backed off suddenly.
She cleaned the paw that had pushed the chicken away, and her eyes got
really big.

Finally, she laid back down and licked the chicken. In less than a second,
it was gone.

She jumped down, nonchalantly walked over to me, put one paw on my leg and
mrrrrped, "Um, I MAY like that. Do you hsve more that I can try. Um just in
case?"

She got more, and snarfed it as well. My little girl is slowly getting an
education.


Hugs and Purrs,
Mark

MileHigh Salute for M.E. and virtual skritch for Apache, who has no
idea what a lucky
girl she is for getting a forever home with a crazy dude who puts food
treats on the
dresser for her.

I wonder if he was refering to what some call a "sideboard" which IIRC
was used as a serving table "in the olden days"? MLB

Nope. A chest of drawers, for holding clothing and for providing a flat
surface on which cats can nap.

What an adorable discovery! My two are rather strange in that they
don't seem to like fried or roasted chicken - they instead like the
canned and freeze-dried varieties that I get for them.
