New Home Needed...

I am in need of a new home because I am not welcome here anymore. I’ve done something horrible that I simply cannot undo. All of my things have been packed up and I am in search of a new place to live. I may end up back at that jail that I came from. Today I woke up much like every other day. I pounded on Gramma’s door and sat quietly in my perch watching the birds at the window and then went and woke up Mommy so she could feed me.

When Mommy came downstairs, she uncovered Tangie and gave him his morning egg for breakfast. Then, she went in the kitchen to prepare mine. Just like every day since I’ve come here. Now, something made a big loud noise in the living room so, I being the investigator had to go check it out.

I walked in to see Tangie’s cage lying sideways on the floor. The bottom of the cage had broken off leaving a big space for me to reach in and grab him. So, that’s just what I did. I reached in and grabbed him before he knew what hit him. I stuffed him in my mouth and bit down hard. He was screaming his fool head off! I bit down harder…
It was at this point that Mommy came in and saw what I had done. Very loud words were said at me as she quickly tried to pry open my mouth to try to rescue Tangie. It didn’t work. I kept backing up and pulling away. She finally cornered me and I sat there with Tangie half in and half out of my mouth. His little feet were hanging out kicking at the air. Mommy reached for me again but all she could get a hold of was Tangie’s leg. She kept pulling and pulling on it much like I’m pulling on yours!!

Happy April Fools! Tangie is just fine sitting up in his cage. That story was very grave as Gramma informed me so I thought I should clear the air. Tangie and I are at peace with one another. He can still draw my attention but it's a'cause he's so orange. We had a toe-clipping experience together a few days ago and I feel for the little guy. I know enough to sit still but he didn't...he kept fighting to get away and...he did. And I did nothing. Just sat and watched as he fluttered to the floor. Mommy picked him up and scolded him for getting away and well...I guess Tangie could tell the story best.
