Meow - Hiss!

We are house sitting this week for Adam & Roxcie who are enjoying a week away. Part of the house sitting duties involve making sure "Chief" is being taken care of. So tonight we went by the house to check on things and allow Katie to play with the cat. Well, he was more than grumpy tonight. Mad that we wouldn't let him go outside and whatever other reason cats need to be crazy. Anyway he wouldn't even play with Katie - who loves cats. And Scott, who wants nothing to do with most animals was doped up on allergy meds and went downstairs to make sure Chief had enough food/water and that's when he attacked.

It could be on an episode of "When Animals Attack" or something on the Animal/Planet network - planned and calculated Chief isolated his prey and pounced and lashed out. The details are blurry, but I'm certain it was something like this. Regardless the "scars" of this experience will be with me for life.

All I can say is...the visit ended soon after.

ps - the only reason Katie still isn't laughing about the incident is because she is now asleep.

Too funny. I'll be sure to meet Chief next time I'm in Calgary. Maybe my natural charm with cats can soothe the savage beast!

Just to be clear...the only scars Scott has are to his ego and mental state!
