Stalkers

It's always an adventure!

I looked across the yard this morning:

Knowing that this is NOT a good thing, I went, got the camera, took a picture, and then went to break up the confab.  I didn't know *WHO* was in the crab apple tree, but I was sure something had been treed.

So I went and spoke to the cats.  I told them to move along.  It made a big difference:

That's correct - all I managed to do was get them to change sides.

I was not pleased, but I wasn't totally concerned, because Hunter cat was not with them:

Neither was the last feline overlord, who was stalking independently:

So I kept one eye on the cats in the distance:

Looked at the Hunter cat:

And continued to weed.  At some point, cat four disappeared . . . . totally.

But the stalkers were still in position.

Cat four came out of the culvert (what *was* she doing in there?) and I reached the end of my patience.

So I walked to the house - went to the front door - and through the screen (different angle, same critters):

I tried the "noms" call (shaking the treats while enthusiastically talking about breakfast) and the Demon finally broke her concentration, but white cat was undeterred.  Ultimately I had to go out to get her, which lead to a thrilling chase of gray squirrel by white cat, and ended with white cat being taken into custody for violating boundaries.

And all this before breakfast.

Your cats lead event filled lives!  

The sad truth is that I just went and broke up another confab - same location - three cats.

So really, they spend most of their time sitting and staring up into trees.

Your cats are beautiful!

Awwwww - thank you - they are all on the calico spectrum somewhere.  We think they are pretty special - and they do too! :)

Fluffy Butt wears the collar - it is supposed to scare birds off (because they can see the bright colors.)  It failed once just recently. :(

White cat has managed to ditch every collar - so she's now wearing a harness.  Claims it's torture.

Duh - The Stalker Overlord (which has me still in giggles) must secure and patrol the perimeter.

      Erica has two associations for me. One is Erika Shupe, and the other is that it was the name of the “Brown Owl” of my Brownie Guides group when I joined. Brown Owl is the traditional name given to the main leader of a Brownie unit here in the UK. I remember she always had her hair in a single long plait down her back.

      We use Brown Owl for the main leader in Canada too and Tawny Owl for second in command. 

      I am a Brown Owl! In Ireland, but was also a Tawny Owl in the UK. I love being Brown Owl and the whole story that goes with it.

      i think she announced it’d be Amaree,

      My guess was Arrow Canaan on the Baby Names Thread. Her boy names follow an ACC pattern & don't have cutesy spellings. Since there's not much with the aforementioned pattern, that's what lead me to my guess.

      I don’t think she announced it on her social media yet. I think she might’ve let it slip when ordering something with the baby’s name on it.

      Gotcha.  I don’t follow her but see reddit posts about her and couldn’t remember where I saw the name.

      If it is Amaree, it’s the first “non-noun as a name” name for awhile, right,  I can’t remember them all—anchor, armor, anthym, aynjel, are the four I remember that are other words.  Then andre, arissa (is is anissa?), anniston (i will never be convinced it’s not after jennifer anniston).  So I’m missing 3.   

      Anyway, lucky kid gets a normal name if it’s amaree

      Something made me look up the Boyer Girls on FJ, and there was a post in the previous baby thread, so I couldn’t quote—sorry!

      I saw that Brigid is now a doula, with Brijeedoula. And wouldn’t you know it, she has another insta called evespromise. That handle is…like, was Eve really into birthing babies, or is ‘promise ’ a try-hard sublimation of ‘curse’? For a fundie Christian, the handle actually sounds threatening!
