I had to con my cat today.
Ed does not care for parties. He actually likes a few of the members of my family, but he doesn't do well when they come to visit in droves. He must have known something was up this morning, because there was cleaning going on, when we should have been having a quiet morning.
When the door was open a moment too long, he beat a retreat, and spent the day hunting outside. Since it was in the 40s today, I figured he would be fine outside, and generally ignored him.
As it got dark, someone managed to get him into the garage, but my Mother couldn't get him to come into the house. I tried, and he snooted me.
So....I left the door from the mudroom to the garage ajar, and turned out the lights. Then I left the door from the mudroom to the rest of the house ajar. A few minutes later there was a streak of black as the cat flew through the house to the safety of my office.
It's nice to know that I still have the touch! *G*

Buffy, I feel for you when you get all excited over outsmarting Ed!!! You are undoubtedly in a harried, hurried state. Ed knows that you care. Hope you're having a great week!

I hadn't thought of it from that point of view. It's pretty darned sad when outsmarting the cat is the high point of my day.
Nah....the week is going down hill rapidly. I'll blog about it. Thanks for stoppying by.
