I was recently commissioned to catch the stray cats that suddenly appeared in the area en masse. Being the resident Crazy Cat Lady, I avoided this job because the thought of taking cats out of their comfort zones and putting them into animal shelters made me depressed. However, my attitude has since changed…rather than write about it, I decided draw it out instead.
It started out like this…
And Kitty was like this…
And then these Hater Cats showed up…
And were all like this…
And then they did this…
And this…
Which caused me to do these things…
In case my artwork is too awesome for you to grasp, starting from the top left and going clockwise, I am (1) throwing water on the cats and chasing them with a broom, (2) spraying pepper spray outside my door, (3) placing oranges around my doorway (because cats don’t like oranges), and (4) scaring the cats by rattling an Altoids container full of quarters and shaking a plastic bag.
The End.

I can’t tell you how much I love this blog entry.

Wow.
lol. I can dig it.
So were you originally feeding your cat when the haters showed up to steal its food or was that cat a stray in the first place?
@Digital_K_OS - Kitty was a stray, and I was feeding her. And I didn’t have a problem about 4 years or so, until seven Hater Cats showed up. They literally followed her around because they knew she was getting fed. It was extremely creepy–but interesting to see how smart cats really are.
@absolutangel64 - It’s survival … stray cats obviously can’t depend on a steady albeit canned food diet from humans so they revert to their wild instincts. If one stray is being fed then obviously there must be a food source available thus the other strays follows the fed one around to see if they can’t grab a bite too. It’s the same with raccoons and bears that wander near my neighbourhood. I swear those bears and raccoons are better fed than we are, their coats are so shiny and they are FAT!!! (O_O).
Stalkers of the Night: Feline Frenzy or The Nemesis of Felinedom The Scarlet Sylvia. I am totally awesome at making up titles.
