Blackie in the Dog House

Long story short with the colder local weather lately I have experimented with allowing all 3 kitties in for visits.

So I was typing at the computer and heard a noise in the kitchen. I thought no big deal. As time went on the noise got louder and more frequent. Well it seems that Blackie wasn't satisfied with the hard food in the bowl. He had jumped up on a shelf, knocked down the half loaf of multi grain bread, and had already eaten half of it!

Well not only was I unsure if that much bread was bad for kittie I was not amused that it was all the bread I had in the house. I wasn't about to make a 5 mile trip to the only all night store. So I was a bit ticked.

But of course he's just a cat. How made can you really be? Still, he doesn't seem to be enjoying the semi cold shoulder and being literally out in the cold. But this is Florida, so not really too cold.

I usually interact with him several times a day. When I have leftovers for him I can call him from inside the house and he comes running to my front door. But today it was just dry food and water with no verbal communication and no petting. He seems to miss it. Don't know if it means anything more than that. He'd probably do it all over again if given the chance. But you never know.

Still, as much as the bread itself he could easily have knocked something else down and perhaps to come crashing down on a buddy. Could have been a steak knife or a fork or a glass or a blender or whatever, even if those were not the primary object of interest.

Well there's Hairy at the front door wanting in so I'm make this post short.
