Hard times call for desperate measures

Bella first noticed a visitor in our front yard. I quickly went to the window to see what the deal was. Then I recognized this little guy in our tree. He's hiding behind a few leaves but I spotted him. This is the neighbor cat, I'm assuming he belongs to the neighbor but he may be a stray?


Then, all of a sudden....a squirrel starts running down the tree. OK, I see this kitties angle!

The squirrel is too fast for the cat, he's long gone. Before he realizes the squirrel is out of the tree onto the grass.


W....a.....i........t........
there's still a chance! The cat might have dinner tonight. This is the first time I see a cat chase a squirrel. I thought they liked birds? I guess squirrels have more meat?



Dang it!!
The hunt is still on. Now in the neighbors tree. I didn't hang around to see if the cat caught the squirrel so, he may still be hungry now?

This cat taunts Lindsay day and night. They play footsies through the fence for days! Sometimes he comes into our backyard when we're inside the house. Lindsay goes bananas. I always keep my cool.

Below is a little taste of Lindsay mania:

Thanks for the tips re Raw. My small girls will eat ANYTHING but Jack can be a picky brat at times. :)

I added you to my blogroll. I hope that's ok.
