Killer Crypticat

in caturday •  5 years ago 

Earlier this week, while at work I got a frantic bunch of texts and a series of phone calls. My personal phone is always on silent while at work but when I happened to glance at it, it seemed as if someone or something had died with all the messages and missed calls.

!!!!Call Me!!!!

What on earth happened I thought to myself, it was a busy week. I have things to do and don't have time for this, what couldn't possibly wait until I get home? I checked looked at the photos and there it was...

Her first victim!

That's right, our sweet innocent house cat who has spent 99.9% of her life 100 feet off the ground got her first victim and proudly brought it inside to show it off. Bugs don't count and our place is rodent-free, she does, however, sit on the balcony and watch the birds. Cat's like to kill things and Crypticat is no exception, she waits in ambush and finally, after two summers of waiting, she got her prey. Gotta admire that patience.

Here is the killer moments after the crime. What can you expect? Cats love to wait in ambush and pounce. I think it was one of her happiest days ever. I disposed of the evidence upon my return and everything was back to normal.

I feel a little bad because there was some report this week about billions of birds dying in North America over the past few decades. Cats aren't the main culprit, it's pollution and a declining number of insects likely due to pesticides and other chemicals. People blame buildings with lights on at night, glass windows, cats, etc. it's human activity.

How can you stay angry at her? It's Caturday after all and I hope you are all having a fantastic weekend.

What an awesome trophy! I think a stuffed catnip chew toy birdy would be a great reward for that...?

Samantha would love to catch the window squeegy that I use when I stop to get fuel. I may just buy her a nice new clean squeegy to play with or even a windshield wiper blade, She has chased after those for yrs. And never caught one....lol

Here She is birdwatching with Her Tigershark toy.....

LOL, that must be funny to watch, does she get dizzy?

She is still very aggressive towards me washing the windshield by hand with the long handle scrubbers and rubber squeegy. Like the kind they use on big windows on buildings. She will run back and forth across dashboard chasing and pawing at it. Sometimes people will stop to watch her. Windshield wipers not so much anymore as She runs to hide from rain. She is not afraid of water, I think it is the noise of the rain.... ?

What does Crypti do when it rains...?

So cute. Crypticat isn't affected by the rain unless it's heavy and the wind is blowing from the south (covered balcony with glass barrier), she will then come inside and watch. It's not as exciting as being on a dashboard.

Here is a shot i just took of Her helping me clean the windshield today.

AWWW Good girl @crypticat. You got one! What a busy hunter you are. How can anyone be mad at a face like that HA HA.

One word, Fukushima. We are all slowly being microwaved to death. That is why the birds are all dying. Now with 5G and DEWs... Oh yeah, I can't forget all the chemtrails either.

Fukushima was indeed bad, put me off wild caught pacific salmon.

Saw you get attacked by that Irak guy and thought the cat was cute.
It is cute indeed. :D
