Cat Burglar ...

J was on his own for cooking dinner, tonight, because I had both eyes dilated today. The world is made of strange visual effects but is clearing slowly. He found most of a rotisserie chicken in the fridge. Good. No complicated cooking to do.

We saw o1 doc's local area on the national news and J gave them a call on the cell phone. While he was talking, he set his nearly empty plate on a hassock by his feet. Mew saw him do this.

She streaked past me with something in her mouth, headed for her food dish and made a deposit. She had put her bite-sized, contraband chicken into the bowl which automatically made it hers, she thought.

Reminded me of a Siamese cat we had years ago who left fang marks on either side of the breastbone of an unattended, 20 pound roast turkey.

Now, that's ambition.

It was good of J. to call and check on us. And it was good that Mew only got a small piece of fowl. Is there a 5 second rule for cats, I wonder? If it's on the hassock for 5 or more, it's MINE!

LOL, I thought that only worked on M & M's.

I miss peanut M & M's, Bridge Mix candy, and Chocolate Thunder from Down Under, aka Outback Steakhouse dessert.
