Don't Mess with my Lizard
Blue is a very sweet cat. While she excels at mischief, she's so friendly she'll let almost anyone rub her tummy. But when she has a prize and anyone (cat or human) tries to take it, she channels a leopard.
Several days ago Ann IM'd me that Blue had a skink. I grabbed the camera and hurried downstairs. Blue was in the greenhouse with the unlucky skink in her mouth. We wanted to get her to drop it so we could take it outside and release it.
Here's how Blue responded.
This lizard didn't get released.
Hi Myke, I enjoy your critter postings very much. My condolences to the skink, but I see there was no way around that outcome. That Blue meant business! I am writing to wish you a very Happy Birthday, if my memory serves me correctly it is tomorrow the 25th. Have a great day! I just turned 50 last Sunday, ugh. Hope to hear from you soon. Hi to Ann and the kids. Love Bobbie
