the kitten chronicles - part 176

Last night the boys and I were enthralled by the latest Maple Leaf heroics. Both of them marveled at the plucky tenacity of the local team as they came back to tie the Bruins in the 3rd. And ended up winning the game in a shootout. This morning in the Star the winning goal by Kadri was described as" looking like a kitten playing with a ball of string." Of course this gave the fur-faces some
ideas. Could they help train the Leafs with their cat-like moves and assist them in their brave goal of making the playoffs at this very late date? Rooney volunteered to show how he catches individual drips from the basement sink tap with his laser-like front paw speed. Rufus offered to school the team in reflexes he employs in ducking just at the very last second before his insane brother leaps at his head. One problem. This would have to be dry land training. The boys would definitely dislike the feeling of
ice on their paws (they are indoor cats after all) So it would be better if the Leafs came to Casa Big Cat for their training. What the heck, anything to get the Leafs into the playoffs, right? Rooney has even said he will wear the blue cape he was given to prevent him from licking his former nuppins. O.K., he didn't say that, he hates that cape. But maybe we can work something out. xxx dad
