Ugh! (GW)
Now the light mornings are well and truly upon us, I am woken ever earlier by
three felines demanding to be allowed out into the garden at times when any civilised being should be tucked up in bed snoring... At five this morning, already daylight outside, I was forcibly dragged away from the Land Of Nod to open the door to the garden to let the clowder out. I left the door ajar so they could come and go. At seven this morning, when I awoke properly, I stumbled downstairs to be greeted by.... Marble at the foot of the stairs gnawing on the hindquarters of a rabbit. He'd already munched his way through the rest of it. The carpet is a bloody mess, awash with entrails. Do I need this??? Do I??? And *before* breakfast!!! When I am forced to visit the great white telephone in the bathroom. BAH! Cats - who'd have them ;-) Cheers, helen s --This is an invalid email address to avoid spam-- to get correct one remove fame & fortune **$om $ --Due to financial crisis the light at the end of the tunnel is switched off--

If I was undecided before (they wouldn't survive 12 minutes out there with the foxes and hawks and coyotes - they can't even kill an indoor mouse!) I am convinced now. Indoor kitties. Yup yup yup. TBird --- whose last outdoor cat loved bringing home dead mice, and once brought in a live chipmunk that lived under the recliner for 3 days until we chased it back out

It's a good thing you got there when you did, or it should have been all gone. BAH! Cats - who'd have them ;-) Good question! Cheers, helen s Regards and Purrs, O J
