Last
week, the outside (official Memphis)garbage can was full, so Teddy sat
a bag of garbage on the back porch. Later, I looked out the window and
said, "Somebody or something has gotten into our garbage." Teddy opened
the door, and said, "And here they are!" It was a half grown kitten and
a red, fluffy chicken, gang banging our garbage together, right there
on our back porch. When we stepped outside, they took off!
It was so funny. The chicken was fluttering hard, trying to get back
over the fence, and the kitten just stopped at the fence and turned
toward us. It sat on it hiney and curled its tail around itself, and
struck the perfect, "cute kitty" pose, as if to say, "Who? Me????" The
chicken was fluttering and squawcking, and the cat was posing. We were
about to die laughing about the two little criminals.
We moved from the "country" to the city, and now, next door, we have a
turkey, some ducks, some chickens, a very proud rooster, and some cats.
On the other side, there is a nice German Shepherd couple named
"Winston" and "Sugar" Ambrose. I supposed their last name is Ambrose,
as their owners are named Joe and Elnora Ambrose. We've just barely met
Mr. Joe Ambrose, but Sugar runs to the fence for loving, and Winston,
who is usually chained due to his aggressive nature, barks and
sometimes whines for attention. Sugar runs over, as if to comfort him,
but is irresistibly drawn back to the fence to make sure we notice her
and come to say "hello"
