... never "owned" a cat, never thought about a cat, never cared about a cat..... actually, always thought "f*k cats"..
... never even held a cat until this time last year (56 years old at the time)...helped out a stray mother cat who needed help with her kittens... only ever previous cat encounter - kept a '71 Chevy Chevelle in my grandparents barn/garage years ago, "off season" - would stop up on cold winter days to "fire it up" to keep the battery from dying... one visit I cranked the ignition, everything died and every dash light lit - "now what the f*k?" - lifted the hood - there's a dead kitten - got wrapped in and popped all the drive belts...
... got "stuck" with this guy... last one remaining out of a litter of four male kittens - no one wants 'em... man... and he was the "runt of the litter" - totally independent - would hiss, swat, claw and bite at me every chance...
... "Listen! and understand!.. the Terminator is out there! It can't be bargained with! It can't be reasoned with! It doesn't feel remorse, or pity or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, until you are dead!!!...
- "Kyle Reese" (from the movie)
... that's all he does!!...
... night vision, high frequency hearing, acute sense of smell and touch, razor-sharp teeth and claws, expert climber, speed and agility, fearless "on the hunt" - pound for pound, an ultimate "killing machine"... that's what he does... pretty cool...
... "nice kitty"....
Update 05/27: "Hey Ig - killed anything yet today?" - "Naa!... but the day ain't over yet!!..."
Terminator... Ha,Ha,Ha! The "Terminator" has yet to meet ELMO. Would love to see a pic of Ig cat after messin' with him. I'm guessing he'd be the bird!
ReplyDeleteElmo - Kill anything today? Yeah that annoying house cat that was fuckin' with the birds! Good dog, very cool!
HA... that's true - we'd have to X-Ray ELMO'S stomach to get the photo - although, I think that the "80lb Black Panther" would also meet his match with 'MO - ya' need to let me borrow 'em for a day...
