Up until this morning I had the privilege of never in my life seeing a rat. A wild one that is. I had intended to remedy this aspect of my sheltered life in Cambodia, however that was not to be.

My darling cat decided to leave a rather mangled one right outside my car door this morning. As I went to the car I couldn't help but spot the mangled mess and quickly turned around. So in was back inside to get my darling husband to move the car so I could zoom off to work.

My darling cat either needs a lesson in the polite disposable of his dinner or we should thank him for the early Christmas gift. The person I feel most sorry for is Louise. Yes Louise, who it seems, every time she comes over, our cat decides that a dead bird would be best left for her viewing pleasure. She turned up for tea last night and had to step over a dead bird that our darling cat had left on the doorstep. I am not going to mention the previous circumstances in which she viewed a dead bird at our place. Oh dear- how embarrassment.

I hope children are easier!

Hey Anita,
what a lovely cat you have. I don't know if kids are easier. It seems that toby has a secret arrangement with our cat. Cos ever since he was born our darling cats seems to leave all her catches (mainly birds and lizards) on the patio outside the back door where toby plays. Toby then goes out and wants to join in the fun and has a play with these mangled dead things. So far just a lizard, i managed to dispose of the birds before he found them. A bit yuck really, and i am sitting here eating my lunch too... next topic!
