Respite

Just when you think life is wearing you down, a panicked red cat streaks by with the string from a mylar helium balloon wrapped around his leg.

  1. Ours is always flying by trapped inside a plastic grocery bag. *CRINKLECRINKLECRINKLECRINKLE* He’s so terrified every time, it takes us several minutes to catch and disentangle him. I should start leaving balloons lying around. That’ll give him something to cry about.

  2. When I was growing up, we tied a huge sleighbell to our cat’s collor to warn the birds she was coming, Unfortunatley, it was too big and too loud, which freaked the cat out. She circled the house three times like a bat out of hell before we caught her.
