Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

In my brother's residential neighborhood in Copperas Cove (near Ft. Hood ) there were ostriches. Or was it alpalca? No, I think it was ostriches. I recall them leering at D as he laughed hysterically. The alpalcas are near my parents (one of dad's S&R buddies actually has a couple.) This probably comes as no surprise to those that have seen the area. There are also chickens, horses, wild foxes and owls.
I saw a fox when I was there. At first, I thought it was a really weird cat with a huge fluffy tail. But then it got closer and the face was All Wrong.

For the record, I might choose to live in the country (down the street from Noah's daycare, there is a herd of sheep. They just had 3 little sheep babies. SO CUTE), but I am not country enough to milk a goat. So. No thanks.

I wish you ...goats.
You know, having a jug of juice fall off the top of the fridge, bounce off my back, hit the catfood dish, lid breaking and spewing juice into the pricey superspecial prescription catfood and all over the clean floor and wall? Was not in my plan.
Measured, chiding letters to radio station presidents and hosts...well, at least that went well.

There are also coyotes that hang out near Noah's daycare. I hope they don't eat the baby sheeps!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I hope they don't eat the baby sheeps!They need llamas!
(seriously)

Oh, man. I can't stop giggling about goats.
I still need a place to live. Being home-of-my-own-less has gotten really, really, really old already, but I do not want goats. You can have ALL of my share of L.A. goats, for sure. Hope that helps!

One of the parents' concerns about the foxes is that they predate on the cats. Given they aren't much bigger, I don't know. The local roamers seem pretty savvy. (Hello, my parents have been feeding "Garfunkle", who won't come in or let them get close but sleeps on their back porch, for a couple years. They suspect he's double dipping as he disappears for days and comes back fatter and cleaner.)
eta: and the foxes are the natives, the cats being the aliens and my parents are well aware of this. But still, it'd be nice not to worry about favorite visitors.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I made meat on a stick for dinner ( well chicken) . DH has minutes to get home.
HC was on my TV - I like her because she sounds like a rational being. Still a tad to careful for my taste - but rational. Wouldn't that be nice

Alibelle, you could stay with us and goats for a bit.
