She Came, She Saw, but She SO Did Not Conquer

Itty Bitty Annie

Look. at. that. face. How could it hurt to love that face?  Well, I'm going to tell you how! The itty bitty cute kitty face up there is representative of kittens everywhere who completely get off the hook for mauling their humans because they are that cute! But I digress.

My friend, Cyndi, hooked me up with that hunk of cuteness up there.  Cyndi has a marvelous Australian Shepherd dog, Roo, who has a special talent for chasing squirrels....and catching them! Then he often proudly presents them to Cyndi for approval and validation of his prowess. But, on a hot June day, at her mom's house, Roo presented Cyndi with this little diva in his mouth! He had evidently seen this kitty when she climbed under the fence from a neighbor's yard. Surely Roo thought, "Hey! It's the same color as a squirrel! It moves like a squirrel! It must be A SQUIRREL!!! YUM!"  And so he caught it! Mighty easily, I am sure, since as an itty bitty kitty she surely couldn't have possibly even tried to run from Roo. 

Seeing movement on the patio, Cyndi glanced up to see something in Roo's mouth at the door and thought, "That's not a squirrel! No, Roo, no!!!!" Then rushed to rescue "the squirrel" much to Roo's disappointment I am sure. (To be continued)
