I’ve been totally upset since I found out there was a dog jail in my big package.
But I’ve been thinking about it, and I think I came to a wrong conclusion.
My person was mistaken when she said the package was for me.
It wasn’t for me at all.
It’s not even a dog jail.
It’s a cat cage.
I decided to test my theory out, so I got some cat treats, carefully placed them inside the cage, and lured Scratchy in.
Then I shut the door.
Yup, it’s a cat cage alright.
This is really fun.
Making fun of Scratchy in the cage, I mean.
I was having a great time watching Scratchy in the cage when my person heard something – I’m not sure what – and showed up in the room with us.
Person, I was only trying to do you a favor.
It’s Halloween.
Aren’t you supposed to lock all the black cats up for safety?

You caught a black cat on Halloween! Is that bad luck? Or maybe it’s good luck since you’re not the one in the cage!

Will and Eko, it’s definitely good luck. Always better to have Scratchy in the cage instead of me.

Kolytyi, this is definitely a better use of this cage.

Andrea, you’re so right. People do things to black cats on Halloween and I certainly didn’t want anything to happen to Scracthy – unless it was something I did, that is.

Kev, I think maybe I should fill this cage with black cats for Halloween. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

So thoughtful – cat treats even! (and it’s on wheels – now, I am so jealous)

That’s more like it!!! [sorry Scratchy]!
Maybe you could both sleep in that little …house.
BTW that’s a beautiful bed you have, Bongo!
Bongo
October 31, 2013 at 9:12 pm
Marina, I would never want to sleep in there with Scratchy, but maybe I should take my bed back from him.

If that is a cat cage …then I am a millionaire…it looks more like a cage for a very wild animal….the bars ar so thick and strong.
Are you sure that person has not got a big wild animal tucked away somewhere….and I do not mean poor Scratchy…a lion, a tiger, or a bear…xxxxxxxxxxx

Patrecia, Scratchy can get really wild sometimes. Just ask all the people at the vet.

That’s right Cupcake. I’m taking very good care of Scratchy. People try to steal black cats on Halloween. Hey, wait a minute. Scratchy, get out of that cage. I need you to come outside for a minute.

GOOD BONGO!!! Your such a good boy! Putting that mean nasty ol’ kitty in the cage. And your right by the way, Scratchy should be locked up safe for today.
Your such a good boy!

I’m always looking out for the best for that mean nasty ol’ kitty.

I think that Scratchy and the paw prints cushion go really well! 🙂

Kevin, having Scratchy locked up is beyond my wildest dreams – even if he does look good with my dog bed.

Well, sweet Bongo we think you did good making sure sweet Scratchy was safe on Halloween. We have never seen a cage that nice, we like that it is on wheels. Hugs and nose kisses

Chancy and Mag, nobody laid a hand on Scratchy all during Halloween. My person never got me a cage before because she figured I’d bust out of it during thunderstorms. There’s got to be a way out of this one. I just have to figure it out.

Sandra, I mostly had to stay out of Scratchy’s way after my person let him out of the cage.
