Hi Heather,
Isn't just wonderful getting those small presents, I am sure your friend just appreciated it very much. I should be used to getting those gifts by now since I live out in the country, my cats usually bring home little rodents but never my dogs. But got to love them just the same |
I came home one day to find a dove on my living room floor. The cat and dog were BOTH in the house. Riley (the cat) thinks he's a mighty hunter but to my knowledge, he's never caught anything bigger than a dragon fly. There were feathers all over the house but the bird was intact. Riley didn't seem to notice that there was a dead bird in the living room but who knows, maybe he was trying to act innocent. We never did figure out "who done it" or HOW! |
We have a stray cat that just came up at our hunting camp during the Summer, so we started feeding him. He loves to bring me presents too. So far I have been gifted with a chipmunk, a squirrel and my favorite.... a bat that was still alive.
Darndest thing about this cat, he has six toes on each foot. Guess that is what makes him a great "mouser". Has anyone else ever heard of a six toe cat? |
Yep! Cats (or other animals) with extras toes are called polydactyl. Ernest Hemingway is famous for keeping polydactyl cats, and I rthink that there is still a Hemingway home which keeps these special kitties somewhere in the US Ah, the things you learn as an English Major |
I think the Hemingway cats are at the Hemingway estate in Key West, Florida..... |
