The stray calico cat
that runs through my yard
and effectively kills off
legions of invading field voles
is a new mommie.
She had her kittens
and she’s taken shelter
hiding under a bunch
of camping equipment
& canopies.
She’s hissing at me
every time I walk by.
My dog wants to bother her
every time we go outside
to do his business.
I didn’t have any cat food
so I gave her a can of pink salmon
and some water.
I noticed some holes
in the yard.
The voles are making their move.
Soon I’ll have reinforcements.
It will be a long summer
for those unsuspecting voles.
Those Voles Are My Exes
Chow time! :D slc
