Re: First present of the spring.



Nothing like a heartfelt gift from the little ones. Yum!

Blessed be,

I should have known it was coming when Chibi bounded through the open
window with a feather attached to the end of one whisker.

"Chibi, did you just eat a bird?"
"Who, me, Meowmie? No, I just came in for cat food."
"What is that feather doing on your whisker?"
"Feather? What feather?"

Later I went out to pay the newspaper lady. Cherry and Jona were on
porch, sniffing something possessively. I stepped around them to open
the gate. Jona slunk off to next door. Cherry stayed.

I turn around after giving money to newspaper lady. Cherry smiles up
at me. "Here, want some?" Half of small dead bird, very fresh.

"Ewwwwwwww, Cherry, grooooooooossssss!"
"But I saved some for you."
"Cherry, did you kill this bird?"
"For you! Present!"
"Cherry, DID YOU KILL THIS POOR LITTLE BABY BIRD?"
"No. Jona did."
"JONA!"
"No. Cherry did."
"Cherry!"
"No. Chibi did."
"Well, bird-breath, if you think you're sleeping in my bed tonight,
you've got another think coming."

At least they think of me.
