Our first night staying in officially began around 9pm. We started talking and talking and talking and talking....about those stupid boys I mentioned before. Then suddenly we were attacked by a swarm of hungry cats! In reality it was just the neighborhood cats that kept meowing by the windows. One of those cat's was Veronica's!
Veronica with her cats.
Let me explain...Veronica has 3 dogs and 2 cats. Three day's before she left, one of her cats decided to hide under the house and resurface at 1 am. It didn't have a collar but based on the picture we had on FB of the cat (the brown one of the left) and the actual cat before us, we concluded that it was in fact the same cat. It was whining and crying and scratching itself...a lot. I figure it must be starving having spent like 3 days under the house. So Ariana and I began looking for some cat food. Well, since the cats were supposed to be taken care of elsewhere all their supplies were gone! No food for the kitty!
I googled "what to feed cat when out of cat food" ...results: TUNA!!! So with Ariana, confident that she had seen some tuna cans before, we searched the whole kitchen ................(jeopardy theme)..................Ooooh plum wine in the fridge! Score!...............(jeopardy theme continues)...................no tuna. So we poured some milk for the cat and some wine for ourselves! The cat went to town with that milk. We let him out again to "take care of business" . We talked, we cried, we laughed, we shared, and a little wine later.... around 3am or so we were finally ready for sleep.
Unfortunately, Mr. Kitty, was not! We didn't wan to be mean and leave him outside all night....that would be cruel he's a house cat. At least that's how I felt untill about an hour later when the

Yes, guilty of using an online thesaurus. One word was not enough to convey our pain. . . . . For 4 HOURS!! AHHHHHHHHHHH! I couldn't take it anymore. Finally, I just let him out of the house around 7 am. I went back to bed. I got one gloriously silent hour of sleep....untill the alarm went off. Day 2 here we go.
I need a nap!
