The other evening, as I finished up
some yard work, I heard a familiar meow. My brain didn’t place it for a second or two. I stepped off the porch to turn on the water.
As I’m doing this, I think, He’s not
supposed to be out here. I look
down, and sure enough, there’s Moke at my feet. It’s also about this time I
noticed the screen on the ground.
Moke fell or jumped from a two
story window.
Part of me thought he busted out. It was a daring jail break hashed out over
many afternoons of sitting in the window watching the birds, squirrels and chipmunks
merrily cavorting. Nope, he couldn’t
take it any longer…
Then the Rational me kicked the Creative
me in the pants. Moke probably just
leaned on the screen a little too hard and Whoosh! Down he fell.
Either way, the damage has been
done.
Oh, don’t worry, he’s fine, and the
screen popped back in despite being bent.
Here’s the kicker: Now Moke knows
he can escape by pushing on that screen – or any screen for that matter.
Yippee :-)
Oh man! Look at that evil stare! I bet he's already planning his next escape!
ReplyDeleteIf Moke was human he'd make a great stuntman.
