The Auggie-boy is one tough cat.<\/p>\n

However, every once in awhile, something sends him roaring inside like the hounds of hell are after him.<\/p>\n

This morning, apparently they were as I heard the split screen and his feet and then Auggie up, up and away to the top of the cabinet above the refrigerator.<\/p>\n

Auggie slunk down and warily moved around the house, looking out windows and doors … so warily, that I did a house tour to make sure that nothing came in with or behind him. Nada.<\/p>\n

Uncharacteristically, he did not recover his sang froid…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The edge of the porch was as far as he ventured and that was later in the day.<\/p>\n

Stepping back, to Saturday night…at bedtime, I discovered a scab on Auggie’s ear and head and shoulder…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

He tangled with something…but he had not jetted inside like he did today (Monday) and seemed unconcerned about going in and out.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Today was different.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Bear was on Beardog Point when Auggie roared in. AND, as it was warm at 60 something F, I had the house windows open. Bear did not alert and I heard nothing…and believe me, a cat in a fight is hearable from some distance! So, I think no fight, but some critter or bird (eagle or owl or raven?) scared Auggie out of his wits!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“It was so awful, I can’t even talk about it…”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“It was bad!”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“I guess, I just have to muck about on my own…”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“Hey, where were you when I was about to be et???”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“I heard nothing.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“NOTHING!”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Whatever it was, it made for a difficult day for Auggie!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
