I just played the red-shouldered call here [link] and Pumpkin became very agitated and was nosing the laptop. Ditto the red-tailed!
I think the resident birder identified 'emt as the red shoulder, not red-tail.
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

Of course he does! But I'm glad you got treatment promptly.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

It makes me really grateful for Buffy fandom, which is responsible for you guys and most of the other friends I've made after 30.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I am watching the Bomer and DeKay thing. They are such giant dorks I love them SO MUCH. Now I want to watch that Dance Dance Revolution YouTube thing again.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I just played the red-shouldered call here
Just played it. Percy ignored it, Leo sat up and looked around like WTF, and the Gray Cat leaped up with his ears laid back and is still keeping watch. You can tell which cat was a stray.

Pumpkin is the only one who likely spent any time outdoors, if at no other time than when her carrier was dumped over the Y fence. Devi was born to a shelter cat at the shelter, Loki to my neighbor's health aid's cat and only lived in apartments. So, yeah.
I was curious, I played other hawk cries, all the same alarm from the Pumpk. And disinterest from the rest.

Steroid shot IN THE ASS

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Both of my cats were ears up and came to me to try and find the source of the sounds. Jonathan is still on alert

Went to add banana peels to the outside trash (tomorrow is trash night, it was time to peel and freeze this batch) and ended up shrieking and throwing them at a rat. I know they are there, I see them all the time, I just wasn't expecting one-though I should have been on trash night...
