Cat Kills Mouse
Lavender Rose killed a mouse. She left the corpse in our driveway near the Mazda MPV. We know that it was L. Rose what did it, cuz Carlos has retired from hunting.
Nowadays, the little birdies are practically using his head as a perch, and he doesn't care. Pam has seen him laying at the bottom of the post which has the feeder on it, and the birdies are just flyin' around his head paying him no attention -- and he's paying them no attention.
He's getting old, alright. Seems like every time I come driving home he's sprawled-out on the driveway in a state of partial sleep. I always say to him as I walk toward the door of our house something like "Hard at work as usual, eh Carlos?" He doesn't answer. Pam thinks he won't make it through winter.
Back to the dead mouse: L.R. gets credit, she's earned her catfood, and she gets to stay (for now). I didn't get a photo of the mouse before its burial, but here's an artists conception:

I think that you should send lazy Carlos to some type of retraining class. Old age what a cop-out for not doing his job and letting a younger cat show him up. Hope you are Feeling better Uncle Jeff.
Ha! The thought of Carlos being trained for something, let alone being RE-trained! ;-0
