Why does Daddy drink muddy water?
Edited on Sat Apr-02-05 09:41 AM by bertha katzenengel
I've just let Daddy out for the first time today. He probably won't stay out long; it's gonna rain a lot more today.

On the front porch is a big water bowl for ferals. But Daddy just trotted across the street to drink out of a big mud puddle in the neighbor's driveway. Why? Is it because he used to be a stray and that's what he's used to?

Weird.

3. He thinks it's coffee?
To prove what a "man" he is? :shrug: Hey you! :hi:

4. Guten Morgen!
Daddy is SUCH a man. Even neutered, he bullies every tomcat that comes around here. We named him Daddy because he fathered our Petey & Toby and is probably related to every feral in our colony. Neutering did nothing to him but take away his ability to reproduce himself; he must have vast stores of testosterone tucked away in other glands somewhere. :shrug:

:hi:

5. He's just checking out his watering hole
And he's hoping later some unsuspecting prey will stop by for a drink. :)
