At a certain home I’ve visited, there are bird feeders on the porch. Another feeder on the porch is a one-eyed, elderly female rat…and she is fascinating…at least in the mind of the cat who lives inside. You know those deeply insightful sayings about what’s in the eye of the beholder. This rat certainly understands the tensile strength of glass…
So goes saga of cat and rat…
