Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / November 2004Why???
Vernon is sat on the other side of the office desks to me. We are chatting about our overnight visitor. Vernon says, "Why us? How come stray animals end up down here at our house?" I told him he is *stoopid* if he doesn't realise by now that we have a large neon sign on the roof of our house, placed there by the Mothership, which says "Suckers for animals live here" with a large flashing arrow pointing down to our front door.....

Obviously true;-) Maybe true in fact, too, since there's no telling just what sort of messages our animals are leaving when they mark their territory. Maybe something like "we're all well-fed, healthy and happy in this house. Now, if you were a lost animal, that's the sort of marking you'd be happy to run across when looking for shelter. I saw this post so didn't reply to the one saying that the ol'lady pup was back with her masters. And that statement shows the difference between d*gs and cats. When a cat is found I would have said he/she had been reunited with her/his slaves.

My own mother had a sign over her house that said, "Hates animals -- stay away!" despite my father's love for them (which I inherited from him, thank goodness). Nina in Texas I must have a similar sign, either that or like the hobo's of old the animals mark the light poles with code to be used to determine if the person is a soft touch or not. In my case I have rescued 2 animals ( a siamses and a tabby) that showed up in my yard both of which were abandoned and kept till forvever homes could be found. One, almost became my permenant cat but my niece and her hit it off so i sadly let her go with my niece. Both are great and thriving :). >Vernon is sat on the other side of the office desks to me.

My dad doesn't allow house pets, but his barn cats are some of the best-fed, best cared for animals around. And cats come from across the county to live in his barn, taking up permanent residence. We've had quite a few show up injured, thin, frightened...and turn into snugglers under his hand. He must have the sign on the barn. --Fil That sounds lovely, the cats must send emails to each other like come and live here its a great place to call home bouquets to your Dad.
