Cat's out of the bag

KM z5

Bocephus up to one of his less destructive antics. He went AWOL a couple of years ago, likely a victim of the wilderness he stalked for many years. Looking back at old pics, it seems he always had some sort of facial expression. Usually smugness.

Well, we never knew for certain. He came up as a stray, stayed a while, left for a few months (maybe a year) and then came back and stayed for many years. He liked to wander at night and would get in fights with other cats all the while traversing areas with coyotes, bobcats and bears. In fact he took off after a bear one time. He was an uncontrollable cat, even as cats go. He used the under the floor ventillation system as a subway and ripped a hole in the main trunk so he could come and go through the crawl space. For that fact alone, he wasn't quite as missed as one might imagine.

In any case, he lived a pretty long life, and spent many a campfire purring in someone's lap. Often after 20 minutes of kneading.

Re: Cat's out of the bag

Yes... cats have a preference for boxes. My daughter's cat jumps in every open box, (the must beeing cardboxes), except one, the one used to transport it. Granted, that is the one used also to go to the veterinarian
