Autumn Play

Last week Squid and I dared to venture out into our backyard. Truth be told, we go to the park when we want to play. Our yard is nice and everything, except one thing. We have 3 outdoor cats. Get it?

The smell of cat shit is really not all that pleasant. I had this idea. I would place 2 or 3 litter boxes outside and fill them up. Since all our cats were originally indoor cats, and since cats seem to love crapping and pawing through litter, I figured it would solve the problem.

Only I missed one important detail. Jason can’t even get me to change the litter box for our one indoor kitty, Cookie. There is no way I would be going outside to empty 3 others.

Oh, well, at least I got some cute pics out of our adventure.

This is Squid sitting next to our grouchy girl, Chateaubriand

This is our oldest cat, Fraidy, having a nap on the deck

And here’s Squid, Char and Joey, our Blue Heeler. Right after this picture was taken, Joey proceeded to take a steaming poo, sending us flying inside. Animals - can’t live with ‘em, can’t dump them on the side of the road, peel out and drive away with arms outstretched, screaming, “Free at last, BOO YAHHHHH!”
