Out on a limb

This morning as we are getting ready for school Adam looks out the window to see what the dogs are barking at. He says, "What is that?" A number of nasty things went through my mind as all the kids ran to the window. "It's a cat." he said much to my relief! So it was. A large cat was stuck high in our tree with Charlie and Maisey barking at it!

 We brought the dogs in the house hoping the cat would be able to get down by itself and finished getting ready. The kids kept giving updates, "The cat is still in the tree."  I look at Adam like go get it down and he looks back saying,"I have take the kids to school. YOU go get it down." "ME?! No way!" I hate doing things like that. What if it's a mean cat and freaks out when I try to get it. He leaves and I take a few pictures. The cat starts crying. She sounded so sad I couldn't leave her to wait for Adam. I got the ladder and got her down. She was very grateful and didn't hurt me! She ran fast across the street to her home. And I got to be the hero. I help the poor little kitty.

    I did not know that kind of thing happened in real life. That’s funny.

  1. What the? And aren’t you glad it was just a cat and not all the unmentionable things that went through your head before you saw it?
