Disparate Housecats of Daytona Beach, Episode 60

Into the Woods - or Not. Courage is not one of Mirl and Sidd's long suits. They are contemplating an adventure in the dense Florida scrub from their perch on the deck extended into the forest 11 feet off the ground. Mirl has outlined the plan. "Wake up completely. (NOTE: Alertness is mandatory. If not fully awake, ABANDON ADVENTURE.) Get to the big oak branch. Carefully negotiate the transition from deck to branch. (NOTE: If it is a windy day branch will sway. ABANDON ADVENTURE.) Proceed down the trunk head first. (NOTE: this pretty much makes your claws useless. If the trunk is wet it will be slippery. ABANDON ADVENTURE.) When reaching the forest floor, look for the otter trail, proceed west. (NOTE: if the leaf litter is thick, there maybe lizards and toads and bugs hiding, waiting to attack. ABANDON ADVENTURE.) Or, plan B, just go back to sleep. Poor, poor pussies - so misunderstood.

Big hair.
