Cats in the oven
I usually roast a chicken once a week. The first night we eat the breast
and wing with a salad, and the next day I use the thigh and leg meat for quesadillas or something. We can't leave half a chicken on the kitchen counter, or it will become cat food. It's happened a couple of times. So now I leave the uneaten half in the oven, with the door ajar. We were watching a movie (Anything Else, a funny Woody Allen film) and when Tom got up to do the dishes, guess who was *inside* the oven eating chicken? Go ahead, take a guess. -- Victor Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam he Email me he |

Meow!! Good for you!!
Silly hoomin trying to hide food where we can't get it. Once I was roaming on the counters and saw this BIG metal bowl on Mama Kristi calls a "stoaf" Anyways, I first made sure no one was looking, and then peeked inside. I smelled tomatoes, some odd spices and what was that? Beef!! I love beef! But what was it doing swiming in red stuff? So I decided to taste test it to see what it was. To my surprise, it was quite yummy, I was just starting to get some more when the evil hoomins caught me. HMPH! Another time I was investigating and there was this white, flimsy container on the counter. It was closed, but I smelled something delicious inside, so I managed to get it open. I sampled a piece and jumped down to the floor to eat it. But halfway through I decided not to finish it and just left it there. I would have gotten away with it, but it left a funny taste in my mouth and Mama Kristi caught me licking my lips and immediately went to the kitchen. Caught again! How unfair is it that Imp and I get the canned brown stuff, while the hoomins hide the good stuff? Meows to all, Mischief Author's note: *sigh* Mischief sampled my spaghetti sauce while still in the pot, and my chinese take-out from the styrofoam container. Little varmint! |

That story reminds me of the time we bought a frozen turkey for
Thanksgiving and put it on top of the refrigerator to thaw overnight. The next morning it was pretty well thawed out. It was also pretty well eaten and Puffy was asleep beside it with her stomach as big as a basketball. |

After that the oven was always latched at night. Jean Email me he |
