Sky, the Mighty Turkey Hunter

While everyone else with opposable thumbs around here was so preoccupied this week, I want to thank my HumanGyrrl for helping me write about my Turkey Hunting adventure. (We're hoping she'll "help" more often) Here goes:
Well, the other day, I had one of those opportunities that only come around once in a long while, and it was a really yummy one, too.

One of my humans made a turkey sandwich and then just left it next to her computer when she went outside to talk to the neighbors! I think any reasonable feline would regard that as an invitation to help yourself, wouldn't you?

So I began to investigate the sandwich - of course, I wasn't really that interested in the cheese, tomato, lettuce, or bread, but I did give them all a lick just to be polite, and then left them on the floor in case another family member would care for a bite. See how generous I can be?

Anyway, then I got to the really good stuff - the TURKEY! Boy, did that smell good! I was just settling down to a gourmet meal when the Woofie came around. Even though I had generously spread the rest of the sandwich ingredients around buffet-style so that she could pick something, she seemed much more interested in MY turkey! The nerve of some creatures!

Well, I gave her a good growl to tell her what I thought of that, and took a big bite. And just then, the door opened and in came my HumanGyrrl. Can't a respectable feline get a moment of peace to enjoy a hard-won meal?

The next thing I knew, I was turkeyless once more, and she didn't even eat it - just threw it in the trash! Honestly, the waste of that good food just makes my hair stand on end!

(Well, either that, or I need a tongue bath to get the mayonnaise out of my fur.)

What good fortune to find a turkey sandwich just lying around. But, you must speak up and tell them next time, leave off all the other junk and maybe just leave you a pile of turkey!

She threw it in the trash!? She didn't even have the decency to let you have your fill then give the rest to the woofie! The nerve of some beans!!

Heehee, Sky - at least you got a little bit of turkey. I'm not fond of mayonnaise, though. Yuck! Hope you got enough turkey to wash it down.
