The cat came to help me get ready for the tropical storm. I was tying the pool cover down and Fireball thought, that's string, I know what to do with string! So he began to bite it. Seeing that it would give way before he lost interest I quickly tied a twig and leaf dangling from a tree branch away from my tie down. Of course he bounded over to begin leaping and pawing at the dancing leaf. Mission accomplished. How would we ever get things done without cats?
