Two men answered my ad on freecycle about the (semi-creepy) shed I want to vanish from the back yard (and yes, Scoote agreed
)
Unfortunately, it was already getting dark when they showed up...and Scoote was at work. So there I am, in the back yard, in the semi-dark, with two strange men. I do not particularly care for this.
Shadow (our mini-dachshund), trots out....barks twice.
Man #1: Hi puppy
Shadow barks once more, then runs for the doggy door, looking over his shoulder as he goes. Great watch dog.
Conversation and shed inspection continues.
Banshee (our boy kitty who is the size of a small pony) approaches.
Me: Hi Banshee boo boo
Banshee: Meow...and starts to purr
Man #2 (stepping out of the shed): Hi kitty
Banshee hisses, snarls, puffs his tail up and starts to walk stiff-legged towards both men.
Man #1: Dammmmnnnnnn.....you don't need a dog with a cat like that.
