House of flying Cats and Screaming Wife

[SeaCat]

LOLOLOL I just woke from my evening daze in front of the computer to find myself in "The house of Flying Cats and Screaming Wife".

It seems a Palmetto Bug had somehow found it's way not just into the house but into our bedroom un-noticed by either my, myself, or our two cats. The cats noticed it after my wife went to bed and woke her up when they started using the bed as a launching pad trying to nock this critter out of the air. When my wife turned on the lights to see what all the commotion was about she saw the bug making a beeline for her head. She dropped screaming to the bed as it flew by with the cats in hot pursuit. I finally tagged it in flight knocking it against the wall where the cats caught up to it.

Now my wife is sitting on the couch curled up waiting for her nerves to calm down enough to sleep and the cats are wandering the house hunting for more bugs to hunt.

Seacat:
If I were you, I would have a "Now see here!" talk with the cats, pointing to the dead palmetto bug and or the spot/scent on the wall. I would try to get across to them that the next palmetto bug that penetrates to the bedroom will result in a cat flying after being thrown by the tail. "Shape up or be shipped out" theme.

LOL,

Mine sit and whine when the bugs are out of reach. I had a roomate once who killed my cat's pet fly. They both moped, pined and wailed so pitifully that she actually went out and caught a fly and let it go in the house to get them to shut up

My kitty Jonesey loves to catch locusts (cicadas). He'll bring them into the house still alive, his mouth half-way open around the thing because they are so dang big. You see the kitty, wonder why his mouth is open and then you hear the BZZZZZZZZZ.

Then the cat will go off to play soccer with the bug for awhile before he eats it. Crunch, crunch, crunch.

We knew, however, that Jonesey had accepted my husband when the cat offered the man a chance to play with his bug. They batted it back and forth a few times and then my husband gracefully bowed out.

That was sweet. Then - crunch, crunch, crunch.

That was gross.

I love cats.

we have the small chamilion(sp) lizards here that run across the sliding glass door.... My cat has a flying fit trying to catch them... The lizards have figured out the glass so they now walk back and forth just to tease her....

In the days after the hurricane when we had no power I opened the glass door and closed the screen..... you would be surprised how fast a lizard can go when it feels cat breath on it's belly..... She would slap the screen just to see them fly off into the yard....

Now the glass is closed so again the teasing is back on.... cool weather is coming and i figure a surprise awaits the lizards before they disappear for the winter....
