I HATE staying inside when the air is warm, the evenings nice and the weather just perfect for hunting and chasing and eating MICE!
So…if Mom picks me up and takes me inside, shows me a nice dish of cereal and milk; I turn up my nose and run as fast as I can to the back door.
There I meow LOUDLY until she lets me back outside.
I get lots of pets so I know I don’t want to make Mom and Dad mad, but staying inside when the weather is nice—-
Just does NOT work!
I have so much to do.
Mice to stalk
Mice to grab and kill
Mice to bring to Mom or Dad, while meowing loudly. (I want them to know I am doing a very good job)
Mice to eat. Yummy. (Mom said I can’t show you a photo of me eating mice. She said it wasn’t appropriate for the internet.)
Mice to herk back up and leave for the flies. (Or Mom if she sees it. Mom always goes and gets a shovel and buries the herk…silly Mom.)
Then, with a very full tummy, to climb on the chair and sleep or go out to the tractor shed and sleep on Dad’s 630 John Deere.
BUT——-
When Oreo is out and about….I ALWAYS meow to come in and SLEEP WITH MOM!!!

Mindy and our Xenia are united on being outside this time of year. It’s too nice to come in…unless vanilla ice cream is being offered as a bribe.

Oh Mindy, I do wish you’d stay in with the family. There’s so many dangers out there, and yet I know – You’re a skilled hunter, born to hunt…

Mindy, you do a wonderful job of helping to keep the mice under control on the farm — I’m sure both Mom and Dad really appreciate that. I don’t blame you for not wanting to stay out when Oreo is around!
