Today’s the day we are scheduled to take the stray cat to the SPCA.
When I got up this morning at 6 a.m., the dogs were going nuts – much more agitated than usual – and when I let them out the back door, I saw why.
The damn cat – which until today had not made it over the fence into the back yard - was 20 feet up a tree, sitting on one of our backyard floodlights!
I have an aluminum ladder I could use to go get her, but
- It’s starting to thunder – the combination of lightning and aluminum ladders doesn’t sound appealing.
- It’s the same ladder that collapsed with me 11 years ago (almost to the day) leaving me crippled all summer.
After trying for several minutes to call the cat, I went to get my camera. By the time I got back, the cat was down and it had started to rain.
We are currently under a severe thunderstorm warning, rain is pouring down and the cat is in a flower bed getting soaked. Hopefully, the weather and the cat will calm down in time to make her appointment.
