Feline Update
Not only are our urbane, civilized cats afraid of the outdoors, but they’ve now become officially uninterested in watching squirrels, even those six feet directly in front of them.
Moreover, they spent much of last evening trying to eat canned chickpeas out of a colander draining in the sink, and with some success.
I think I’ll suggest that their status be official downgraded to Class 1 Cat-Like Domesticated Fluffy Creatures, because simply calling them “cats” gives the wrong impression these days.
