I was having dinner last Monday evening when Piper appeared on my left in her food sampling position. She likes to check out our dinner and most of the time just sniffs at the piece of food I’ve set on the floor on the corner of a paper towel, and walks away. That particular night she just walked away, which I thought was odd.
As I was doing the dishes later, I heard Steph shriek. There was a dead mouse under my chair that Piper had caught outside and brought to me during dinner. She wanted some acknowledgment, not food scraps. Me bad…
This morning she was stalking another mouse under our kitchen catchall thing so I banged on the side of it to chase the mouse out. Sure enough, it scampered out and ran down the kitchen floor, under the refrigerator. Piper didn’t try to catch it at all, she just gave me this look like I had spoiled her game, and walked off.
Trying to understand cats is like trying to understand women. Sheesh… I guess if you’re outside you kill the mouse, inside you just play with them!
Hey, she gave you a gift and you didn’t acknowledge it and then you ruined her game and an other gift for Dad. Just like WOMEN, they like to be appreciated for doing a hard days work and like a man, you had to show her that you could get the mouse out of the cupboard faster than she could… That’s why Piper is mad! lol
What you say is correct! Very perceptive for a woman…
