You knew this would happen, that one day I would walk into my living room and find THIS.
And you knew just whose fault….
….it was gonna be.
Because she’s prone to this sort of activity. (See the video of Spice opening the door.)
Not that she seemed concerned about the results of her behavior…
….during the whole time….
….I spent chasing the crooked little hen….
….out of my house!

Drag out those fabric scraps and make the ‘crooked little hen’ one of those Banty diapers, they fit around the wings, under and down in the appropiate place..there are some patterns on the Internet..then let the poor thing hang around the porch and come in once in a while…at least until warm weather arrives…
That ‘Spice’ is such a sweet cat…very smart…I bet she is a great ‘mouser’, too…
Cats raised with chickens are usually good about leaving them alone…but I never trust them around chicks until they are with the rest of the flock…It’s a natural thing…
Just like me…I can’t be trusted around a pan of fried chicken.LOL

You need to let Spice know that she can’t invite her friends in, until you get up.

Here helpers were a cat named “Pearl” and a dog named “Ella”. And a rooster with no name. Loved to play “King of the Mountain” on my car. It was too funny.

I used to have a pet chicken that we let in the house. She loved to “talk” on the phone.
Please add me to the BBB list. 🙂

How cute! The poor dog on the right has this “I’m not responsible look” You know, there is a group on yahoo for house chickens and has lots of people who have chickens as house pets! Maybe henny thinks she’s joining in!
I’d love to win the BBB as I can’t afford to buy it due to job losses and massive medical bills.
Thank you so much to the sponsor!

Too funny!
