Happy Windsday...What a crazzzzy night last night. Shortly before midnight it was so calm & warm out that I began to think we wouldn't get the high winds they foretasted...
But then about midnight the wind really picked up...
Since Coleman didn't pee the last time out... I thought I better get him out then... because if the next front ended up having thunder in it... I just knew I'd have to clean up a piddle. I looked at the radar & saw we were in a break in between the rain...
So, I got him out & while standing there it dawned on me that it definitely is Windsday!! (Do you all remember Winnie the Pooh & the Blustery Day?)
Oh, but the craziness didn't end there! A couple hours later just as I was about to take my Ambien CR (yeah, I know, it was really late)... A cat started to growl...
I opened the front door & nope... not there... though I could hear it better... so, I thought, maybe it's stuck under the bushes.
If it hadn't been so late I would have let the screen door slam or yelled to scare it away... but since it was, I grabbed my coat & put on my outdoor slippers & walked around to the front of the house with my flashlight.
By this time I could hear it wasn't just 1 cat, but TWO!! I thought... OH NO... I sure hope they're not "going at it".
Soon as I round the corner to the pine bushes under our living room window, I could tell that's where they were. One grey short haired cat (I've seen around all the time. I think it's one of the neighbor's across the street) & one white (maybe with a little tan) long haired cat... never seen before.
I shined my flashlight down under the bush & sure enough... two cats growling at each other! It looked as if they were each waiting for the other to flinch... so they could pounce! And I mean in a fighting type of a pounce! As if they were protecting their territory... even though neither of them belonged there! LOL
The grey cat took off & a white long haired cat looked like a deer caught in the headlights... but when it realized I was standing there, it ran off too.
I knew if I hadn't chased them off that they'd wake up hubby (if hadn't already) & he'd be hollering for me to do something.
So, it was an interesting night to say the least!
