The day started off just right. Mom,Kali and I staggered into the kitchen for our brekkie. We were just as sleepy as mom as she opened our Fancy Feast and then sat down to have her tea. Yum…beef flavoured, my favourite. Kali gobbled down hers and politely waited for me to leave so she could chow down on the rest of mine. She was so nice and didn’t push me outta the way. I left her more than I normally would, just to say ,”thanks for not being so pushy sis.” 
Mom then put my favourite dvd on and I watched the colourful birds for quite awhile. It suddenly occurred to me that I don’t normally get this kind of treatment…what gives? Hmmm…I know this is leading up to something.
I then cuddled down in my basket to join Kali in a well deserved nap. All of sudden this weird sound scared me. You will not believe what I saw my friends. It was only the biggest rat in history!
I was shocked by mom’s reaction. She just stood and laughed! You wait and see who’s laughin’ when that rat dude goes pooh on the floor, mother!
This huge garbage picker was fast as lightening and ran around the livingroom without even breathing hard. Then he disappeared.
I looked everywhere but no sign of the dirty rat. So I settled down, once again.
Mom opened the sliding glass door and I smelled Cow Kitty. Cow Kitty never meows out loud just moves his mouth…forming the words. He ran in and played with his cheese and mice and then the rat came out from hiding. I decided to pretend I heard nothing and was fast asleep. 
Cow Kitty wasn’t the least bit afraid of the cwappy rat. Mom is sorry if the picture is a little fuzzy but Cow Kitty is one active guy.
There was a whacky and a crashy and Cow Kitty threw the rat over to our crunchies…the dang rat was going to eat our food. 
Mom quickly scooped the rat up and he disappeared. Cow Kitty left soon after and we could finally drift into a peaceful dream world.
Have a rat free Wednesday my friends.

That was one large-size rat for sure but it seems to me that Cow Kitty had it under control. Purrrhaps he can earn his “visiting privileges” by keeping that rat from bothering you and Kali?

I like that idea, Sammy. Cow Kitty does come and enjoy our toys, slobbering all over his favourites. He seems to be able to deal with the rat, no problem. Thanks my friend, Cow Kitty has a job when he comes over now.

You would’ve been a real sight for sore eyes Dezi. Kali and I had a stuffed ducky when each of us was kits. Kali slept with her head on the duckies head…the duck was the same size as Kali.
