Last night I learned two things:
1. Scorpion season has begun.
2. The cats have earned their kibble for the year.
The intensity with which the boys focused on a random paper bag on the floor last night caught my attention. I inspected it, found nothing, assumed they were merely entertained by the crinkling sound.
I still half watched, though, and this turned out to be fortuitous. If I had not, I'd have missed the rather large scorpion executing his escape.
Hubby handed me a stick, then a hammer; the beggars are a little harder to smash on carpet.
It is dead now.
As it should be.
Good kitties.
