ATTACK OF THE 50-FOOT MAILMAN!
I love my cats! My tomcat, "Orion" that I rescued, has a brother who is wandering my neighborhood. He has the same specific markings as my Orion. I feed him on my front porch whenever he wanders by. He's rather skinny, so if he's someone's housecat, they are neglecting him. He's a little skittish but allows me to pet him.
Today. I heard a commotion on the porch: a loud cat cry, thudding noises, and metal clattering against something hard. MY indoor cats scrambled up the stairs as fast as their little paws could carry them. I ran to the front do0r and there was a large mailman, trying to look innocent. Seems he had climbed the stairs and was putting my mail in the box and scared the cat. He told me the cat bellowed, tried to run up my latticework several times, knocked over my aluminum chair, knocked his food dish to the side, dumping its contents. ran into my "Mosquito" sculpture and knocked it onto the cement sidewalk before bolting for parts unknown.
All this occurred 2 hours ago and the poor kitty has not returned to finish his rudely interrupted meal.
Enough drama for me today! Think I'll take a nap.
