Squirrel Sunday.....

Two days after Christmas, and here at our house
Peeking out of the window is the cat we call....."Mouse".For what to her wondering eyes should appear?
Well.....it's definitley not "tiny reindeer"!
It's those squirrels! In the drive...on the tree..on the house!
She just can't stand them....(this cat, named Mouse)
**
She'd chase them away and show them "what for"......
If mom would just come and open the door!

Star's not afraid, he laughs and makes fun,
"That cat can't catch me, he's too fat to run!"
So Star keeps on eating without any fear,
And Mouse keeps on dreaming.....(sigh)..."Maybe next year!"

TOO cute, Mary.... I can only imagine how frustrating it must be for Mouse not to get out there to chase Star away.... And Star knows that he is SAFE... ha

Love your 'words' today---so creative.

Hugs,
Betsy

Oh Mary, I love it. You are just so good with words!
That cat looks like she enjoys watching more than catching. I have a 17 year old cat that doesn't hunt anymore. The birds are safe from her but they don't know it..
