        That’s not even the best part!

        My next-door neighbor is a sweet older lady who takes care of the neighborhood’s stray cats (paid to have them fixed and vaccinated) and she leaves a bowl of food out for them

        Said bowl of food is also frequented by a family of raccoons, so we have several lazy, well-fed raccoons who have been around lazy, well-fed cats for their entire lives. I’ve seen the two species playing together and eating shoulder-to-shoulder

        Long story short, the only way my cat would have gotten into that fight is if he picked it himself, which he 100% would do.

        It’s fine to laugh, the wounds have healed and the hole he ripped in the window screen has been patched XD

      Each time you’ve played with him since that incident was a part of his training montage for his revenge match. You think he was running from room to room at top speed in the middle of the night for fun?
