When I was 10 my aunt gave me a Siamese cat. It came in a wire cage [first clue]. The next day my friends at school saw the scratches up and down both arms asked me ‘hey you get a new cat?’....some cats don't want a hug....

I kill every cat that comes around because my wife has an extremely bad cat allergy.

That's amazing! You mean her allergy is so bad that you have to kill any cat who is within gun range of your property? I only say that since I'm sure none would come into your house.

If they come on my property they are fair game. I do not snipe my neighbors’ cats that are not on my own property.

There’s a stray cat on my property which I am yearning to give a hug. He’s 100% cuteness.

Our 14 year old sleeps most of the day, she is really slowing down. This spring however after years of not hunting we woke up Sunday morning to find a full size jack rabbit, as big as she is, dead and dragged right up to the slider opening. We were stunned. Don’t know how in the worls she was able to surprise it, kill it, and drag it up the hill to the house. She cried all day wanting to bring it in, even after I got rid of the carcass.

Then ya' gotta' figure that the cat licks her butt . . . hope they weren't deep kisses.
