Stuff and some pics

Sam — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 04:15:30 +0000

Haven’t had much blogging motivation this week and have been feeling a bit ‘off’ but I think I’m on the mend now! Despite not being the best I’ve actually managed to get quite a bit done on my to-do list, like choosing a new bag for uni. Gee, shopping is difficult…

Pretty laptop bag that makes me feel more business-like than student.

Today my mama and I went to get my textbooks and a locker for the year. I have to take my French textbook to every class, which is a pain in terms of lugging it to the class I have straight after, but nevermind. Nothing a chiropractor can’t fix, right?

Before I go, I want to share a little something with you. The other night I was going from my room to the house when I saw this little guy or girl! Cute! It stayed while I snapped a few photos and then decided the flash was evil, enough was enough, and waddled off.

Cats Should Pick On Critters Their Own Size

Yesterday evening I was about to walk from the house to my bedroom (about…oooh…four steps, lol) when I spotted my cat, Molly, lying in the driveway, her two front paws out to the front. I new immediately from the look on her face and the way her tail was flicking that she must have some sort of small creature in her grip. Sure enough, as I walked closer I spotted a teeny, young, brown mouse!

I can’t bare to witness cats toying with creatures, live or dead. The only sort I’m okay with are the fake ones made of felt or some other material! So, naturally, I had to rescue Little Mouse from Tyrant Molly. Little Mouse was so, well, little, that I didn’t want to put him or her in my hand in case I accidentally crushed the poor dear, but the only thing I had handy was…a bra of mine. So, Little Mouse was carefully picked up by the tail and placed gently in my bra cup!

To get an idea of size. So now the whole internet knows I have a nude coloured padded bra…

Before taking my new friend (I definitely consider the mouse my new friend since not only did I rescue it from a cat, but it’s seen my bra up close and personal!) to a safe spot outside I brought it into my room to take the photos. Little Mouse’s body would have only been about the size of my thumb to the first knuckle. Dinky-wee.

Hopefully the spot I found for it was safe enough. There was an area of metal to hide under that a cat couldn’t fit in, and lots of long grass.

This afternoon my mum found this baby rabbit after it had been somewhat caught by one of our cats (Lola — Molly doesn’t know how to hunt rabbits). He/She had a bit of a scare and is currently recovering in a box until positively fit enough to go back into the wild. At this size, it should be weaned from its mother by now, so that’s fortunate in terms of our being able to look after him or her.

Cuuuutee! ^__^

Chopper: a ferocious monster

This is Chopper, the 10-week-old puppy that my sister and nephew have adopted from the SPCA. He’s basically awesome!

Fuzzy Update

I’m rather displeased with one of my cats at the moment. Lola keeps catching baby rabbits! She has not killed one yet and we’ve managed to get them off her before she does any major damage, but it’s really only a matter of time before she does kill one. That will be seriously unpleasant, obviously. I have enough difficulty with her playing with, catching, maiming and eating geckos, let-alone a poor baby rabbit!
