Sassy cats – Deer guests and stuff

Posted on by

It’s Sasha the magnificent. Interesting week here. We had a very majestic visitor. She came to our front yard and had breakfast. The peep thought she was eating the flowers. After she left, the peep checked and she cleaned up all the kousa dogwood fruit that was on the ground. Great job. Those blobs are annoying. People step on them. They mush and come into the house on shoes. She’s welcome to come back anytime and clean up the front. The next-door neighbor, who has the bestest garden full of flowers, would be a great next stop for dessert. We haven’t seen many deer this summer.

The pictures were taken through a window so there are weird images.

Gus went on a tear at dark o’clock. He was screaming and carrying on. The peep thought something was wrong. Nope. He just decided to get everyone up early. It’s a dreary day here so he didn’t pick a great day to do it. We had an early breakfast though. The peep hopes he’s not learning to manage the house around his schedule. We’ll see.

Have a great weekend and Gus suggests that you get up early! It sets you up for a nice afternoon nap.

  3. You’re right, they really do keep us on schedule, Gus’s punctual meows are practically a household alarm clock. I’ve noticed the cats also seem to time their sassy entrances just as the deer wander by, as if they’re staging a little performance for us. It makes the whole house feel like a quirky wildlife documentary.

  4. That free rent and healthcare deal is definitely hard to beat. It sounds like Gus takes his job as a personal alarm clock very seriously. Having a built-in reminder to make sure you never forget meal times is a small price to pay for their company. They really do have us well trained.

  5. It sounds like you had quite the week with your animal visitors. That majestic deer cleaning up the kousa dogwood fruit sounds like a real blessing. Those blobs really are annoying when they get tracked into the house. It’s always interesting to see what nature brings to our doorsteps. Gus certainly sounds like a character, deciding to get everyone up at “dark o’clock.” Cats do have a way of running the house, don’t they? I hope he doesn’t manage to completely rearrange your schedule. An early breakfast followed by a nice afternoon nap sounds like a pretty good deal, though.

  19. I had my 6 month physical this morning at 7:05 am. Not sure why anyone wants to be at the doctor’s office at that hour. Far too early. Gracie gets up with the sun, so early in summer, later in winter. Works for me, but still don’t want to have a routine doctor’s appointment before 9 in the future.

    • I aim for 10 or later but not in the afternoon. Gus was up by 5:30 screaming his fool head off. Dan was already up and gave him his toys (we have to put in drawer overnight because he thinks 3 a.m. is playtime). It only got worse. I thought they may had had a mouse but no, just normal screaming. My car went in today for inspection. It was supposed to be in by 8. It was there at 7:10.
