strangers!

Strangers came to my house last night. 2 humans - a big tall man and a smaller one (a girl) carrying a black case. I immediately started the inspection -- they smelled ok, lotsa different scents, but definitely animal people.

The tall man sat down in Dad's chair and read a book the whole time while the girl and Momma went into the room with the noisemakers and closed the door.

Strange sounds came out of the noisemaker room. Sorta like the sounds when Dad is sitting at the thing with the black & white buttons and his fingers press them, but different-- higher pitched and..just...different.

Since I couldn't go in there and observe, I decided to stay in the living room and keep an eye on the strange man. I wasn't quite sure what to make of him so I sat quietly on the foot-rest and watched him the whole time. He just sat there and read a book. He didn't seem to mind it when I nibbled at his shoelaces and he even pet me once! But it was really nerve-wracking.

I was so relieved when Momma finally came back! She seemed surprised that I "behaved" - whatever that means. She talked with the man for a few minutes and then the man and the girl left.

Whew! All that watching was nerve-wracking so I had to release it somehow. "Spaz-kitty" made an appearance after that. *grins*


wait a minute- I just remembered...Momma said something about "see you next week" -- I have to go through this again??
