The Alien Invasion

So here we are having a perfectly excellent weekend of more sleeping when the aliens come over! Part of our personal feline code is to immediately retreat under the bed when aliens visit. We rarely allow them to gaze upon our gorgeous selves and reserve that privilege only for Mom and Pop. Occasionally I stroll out just to see what species is visiting this time!

Here's an example of what I'm talking about -- This is our alien neighbor Brent, and his equally alien daughter Hyler. We make an exception for them and allow them to visit only because they also have a feline, not to mention a canine! I just can't imagine being a feline who allows a canine to invade my space! Thus, Roly Poly and I are quite certain that she does a lot of nip just to cope.

Brent and Hyler got their cat when another neighborhood alien, Wayne, moved away. He couldn't take Stella with him because his new living arrangements included three canines! So now she lives practically next door and they re-named her Bella, but I prefer to call her "The-cat-formerly-known-as-Stella." TCFKAS spends a lot of time outside and sometimes she even has the audacity to perch on the bench right outside our door!!! Somestimes Roly and I can hear her carrying on outside, and when Mom goes to check it out, TKFKAS glares at her and skulks back to her own living quarters.
We have to be on alert and constantly vigilant for these subversive activities in our area. It's not easy being us.
