Your comments always make me laugh, Kay! I now have a picture of Alan in my head with that electrical bat, chasing the doomed moths. I read a quote once that I thought applied to Michael since our household had one male and all females. Even our dogs have always been female. “He was clinging to a rickety raft of testosterone in a raging sea of estrogen”….your situation would be the opposite! xxoo

After having a awful time with moths every night, Alan bought a ‘Bug-Bat’. It dispenses an electrical charge … enough said. Maybe not as merciful as the glass of wine method, but still quick and efficient. However, if you can imagine my 59 year-old husband rushing around the bedroom last thing at night imagining himself to be a cross between a great hunter and a Wimbledon champion …..! Well at least it makes me chuckle anyway!
Our cat must be related to Ember’s cat. Mario likes chasing and eating flies (regardless of damage done to window blinds). He also caught a bird this week and actually GROWLED at me when I got too near him and his prey.
I’m surrounded by alpha males!!!!! 🙂

Aha…maybe this is a more merciful way to die, too. 🙂

Wow. Fierce felines! Poor pigeon. Rubber band repast?

Clearly I need to take the alliteration down a notch. Naptime maybe?

xxoo

Well done, by the way!
