Like Christmas, at least for one little cat...

7 February 2016: Today's good thing is actually a couple dozen things: two caches of cat toys. Cache #1 was actually discovered yesterday. You see, yesterday while I was making dinner, Baby Cat, aka Veronica, came tearing into the kitchen and wouldn't stop staring at the stove. I realized she had knocked something under there. I got a stick from the garage and tried to dig it out. The picture below sums up what I found. The rough math here is about eight mice, four balls, and a fish. (Not pictured: several twist ties and a whole lot of dust bunnies.) Needless to say, Baby Cat was thrilled.


Today, on a hunch, I checked under a cabinet in the kitchen. Get a load of this.


That's about a dozen mice and this feather-tip thing she broke off the toy she got for Christmas from Christian and his family. (She broke it off in about ten minutes, but continues to play with it.) Oh--and a small glow-in-the-dark duck, because this is, after all, my house and there are always ducks around. (Also once again not pictured: several most twist ties and even more dust bunnies.)


Pictured here: one happy cat. Not pictured: five minutes later, when the feather thing was stuck under the cabinet again.
