That Cat Is Hard of Hearing

During our walk yesterday afternoon, we encountered the cat sitting on top of the pile of recycled oyster shells and determined he is hard of hearing.

The oyster shell recycling bin is getting fuller and fuller. We canines consider the monstrous pile to be of great interest, but felines apparently really love it. For example, this cat is sitting on top of a pile of thousands and thousands of shells and won’t move. Oh, you can’t see him? Here is a close up.

My oyster shells, you silly dogs. Now go away.

We are betting a bunch of you are going back to the first photo and trying to find the cat. Really, he is there. And that gives you an idea of how many shells he is claiming. Yes, we think that is very shellfish of him.

Go ahead and laugh. Hu-Dad worked hard on that one.

Hey Roscoe. Which stinks moreā€”a pile of oyster shells or Hu-Dad's bad jokes?

But back to our story… Typhoon and Roscoe were amazedā€”absolutely amazedā€”to discover the cat really didn’t care how much they suggested he should move along.

Can you believe the cat just sat there and hissed at us?

    Hu-Dad is sure making us laugh here at the office with that joke. That kitty wasn’t moving from the oyster shell pile. We could barely see them in the first photo. It was like camouflage with their furs. Thanks for sharing. Have a wondeful rest of your week.

    I was wondering how Landon reacts to the kitty.

    Poor Typhoon and Roscoe, they appear shell shocked by the unmovable cat. (Bad joke intended) Can’t imagine the smell as the pile increases. Thanks for sharing all the adventures.
