Chipmunk invades kitchen

"My cats are traumatised. We're too scared to let them out in case it's still lurking...Usually the cats are really playful but now they're very quiet and reclusive. I don't know what it did to scare them so badly."

What sort of self-respecting feline is traumatised by a chipmunk??? Pathetic... :roll:

Oh, many cats really suffer for some time after a defeat ... :roll:

Sometimes, one really has to accompany them outside and, say, do the security for them for a day or two ... :wink:

nope, men can at least talk, walk, play geetars, write prose and wonderful novels like William Boyd's Any Human Heart.
Cats (Bastards!) just hang about like a bad smell, eat, shit and fuck off when they feel like it.
No one owns a cat, the cat owns them.

and they taste crap even curried :P

I don't think it helped that helped that Snooch weighed 485lbs and had small moons orbiting him. Not saying that he was fat, or anything, but...well, you can only survive so many asteroid strikes. :lol:

True and amusing cat story:

This fella lives somewhere in our street and regularly stalks pigeons when someone has put food out for them.
Image
Shortly after the photo was taken, another cat charged at the group of pigeons, whereupon they all flew up and about, like they would.

Cat above, not too impressed by second cat spoiling the stalking, clouts second cat across the head ;D

My sister adopted a kitten - the runt, no less - from a litter by my (late, lamented) Rigel 4 --- and he dragged home a seagull... :lol:

Impressive! Dale only managed a seagull feather, although he did bring me a large pigeon as a gift after leaving it in an unreachable place for 3 days beforehand! He was a most wonderful, big-hearted bastard :D :notworthy:

What a clever pussy-cat! He even knew to put it in newspaper - must have been taking lessons from the lady at the chippy! :lol:
Topsy (don't ask) thought he'd have a go with the seagulls - he figured that if chicken bones and table scraps were being put out for them then he should have first crack. I don't know what gulls are like round your way but in my manor they were Hulking Great B@stards. Cat got within 3' of them and the lead seagull gave him a look that said "So...you like hospital food then, do you?"
Cat wisely decided that the plate of GushyFud indoors would put up less of a fight.

Incidentally...
Q. Why do seagulls fly over the sea?



















A. Because if they flew over the bay they'd be called baygulls. ;D

One of my cats has only one eye.
When she had both eyes, she used to catch on average 4-5 preys (whatever - mice, moles, birds, neighbours' chickens, small lizards etc.) a day.
Ever since she lost one eye in an accident, she brings on average 8-10 every day. The vet (who saved her life back then BTW :notworthy:) says: You see, madam, she's got better focus now. :lol:
And no she hardly ever eats them, they are just gifts for me and the other lazy cats. :roll:

Actually no - he put it on the carpet, so I quickly moved it to the nearest newspaper! Being his only hunting trophy (that I know about), I was very chuffed that he gave it to me and that he managed to jump in the kitchen window with a big pigeon in his mouth.

Bad joke by the way EB :lol: :notworthy:
