Our Cat's Latest Conquest

Posted in ThisNThat

When we lived in North Bend, I was used to seeing body parts of birds, mice, shrews, and voles  laying on the kitchen floor or doorstep.  Now, in Roseville, Chelan has become pretty adept and catching lizards.  I think the success rate of me saving them in time is about 50%.  A few weeks ago, I joked with my friends in Bible Study that I would need therapy if Chelan (our cat) ever brought in a snake.

Well, my nightmare came true...

David, my hero, played Jeff Corwin and took the snake outside with a pair of my salad tongs...

The poor little guy did have a few puncture wounds, but I am sure he will be OK.  I am pleased to say that I think I handled myself better than I thought I would have.  I only shattered one of David's eardrums...:)
