FROM MY SISTER GLORIA IN GREEN VALLEY -
Remember Precious saved them from the snake in the bookcase.
The saga of Precious, The Fierce and Powerful Protector continues:
Last night, while Bob and I were in our respective spots in the living room, again watching a movie, our wonderful cat came to our rescue again. She was crouched for several minutes in the hallway, in front of the closet door. Coaxing her away wasn't going to work. Calling her to come and jump up into our laps wasn't going to work. Finally, the brave and most intelligent human in the house got the message from the genius cat that lives here had figured out there was something in the closet. You might be asking at this point, what could it be? Another snake? Don't think the brave and most intelligent human in the house wasn't asking the same question. Carefully tiptoeing, because animals, reptiles, and insects can't sense humans when they tiptoe really, really quite (ha!) - I opened the door, oh so cautiously. Because, animals, reptiles, and insects won't know you're opening the door if you do it really, really cautiously and quietly. As soon as I began to open the door Precious the Wonder(ful) Cat was on her feet and at the ready! She crept around the edge of the door and crept into the closet and protected my life with hers by keeping her distance from the stink bug that was posing there with it's rear end in the air by the edge of the door. She did keep it under surveillance while I trapped it under a glass and threw it out the door, into the cold, dark, rainy night. Hopefully, never to cross our threshold again with it's stink. Bob, all the while, again, was reclined in his chair watching the show. And, so, another chapter unfolds in the continuing story about the amazing wonder cat - Precious the Fierce!
