So a few days before Thanksgiving Cheinan and I were sitting in my kitchen watching a pie bake. Most people wouldn't watch, but my oven has two dials; temperature and hi/lo. How the temperature can be 290 on high and 290 on low is beyond me so to bake you must check the thermometer regularly.
The last time I baked, I'm pretty sure I baked a rat, based on noises and smells. This time, the rate ran out the stovetop burner, scaring the bejesus out of Cheinan. I came home after Goa to find rat/mouse droppings in my closet. My housekeeper didn' t want to put rat poison out because of the cat (I appreciate that very much!) so we didn't know what to do. The cat however solved that yesterday by catching and killing the rat yesterday. I wasn't there to see her success but Tenzing said it was big. I guess all that practice attacking me during her first year paid off after all! (In the picture she's practicing attacking what was meant to be her sleeping basket). Nice to know she's able to earn her keep.
Way to go, Kali! So it was a rat? I thought it was a mouse.
