Strung Out

•Aaaah! Strings and things…

•From when he was so small he didn't know how to pull his claws in to.

•.. Big bad boy roaming the neighborhood and terrorizing birds and real snakes,

•he loved chasing the ends of stringy things around the house.

•One of his favorite games was when I pulled one end of a string slowly out from under the rug where the string was hidden. He would follow the movement avidly, and pounce on the string (destroying our rugs in the process, but who cares?) or dive under the rug to look for the string!

•Recently he got under the rug in search of a string toy, and just sat there under the rug for half an hour.
