Snake in the Patio!

Momma found a snake in the patio! (grumble) And she didn't let me haff it!

Linda: You know I REALLY thought we didn't have snakes in Hawaii until I found this little guy under the plastic that one of the litter boxes sits on in the patio. I thought it was an earthworm but it was a STRANGE earthworm. I took a closer look with a magnifying glass and saw a little tongue flick out. After checking the internet, I realized I had found a Brahminy Blind Snake and it's actually pretty common here. Just goes to show you that I don't do a lot of gardening. LOL!

Tiger's Story Part 4 - Part of the Six-Pack

Tiger settled right in as part of the family.

The final picture is the only picture I took with all 6 cats together. You don't see 6 cats? If you bigify the picture, the pair of glowy eyes behind the couch to the right of Bebe is Blackie! From left to right is Tiger, Snookums, Jennifer and Snugglepuss with Bebe and Blackie behind them. They're waiting to be let back into the house after being locked out in the patio for the night.
The story of Leona's 3 Kamuela cats (Snookums, Jennifer and Snugglepuss), who are all at the Rainbow Bridge, will be told in a future post.

Tiger's Story Part 3 - Big Brother Bebe

When Tiger moved in, Bebe was around 6 ½ years old and the other 4 kitties were all senior lady cats between 13 and 17 years old. Bebe was the first to become acquainted with the newcomer.

After first showing him who was boss, he was happy to have someone to play with. Tiger followed his new big brother all around and they became the best of friends.

Tiger's Story Part 2 - The Newest House Cat

The kitten continued to live in our hedge and I continued to feed him. I caught him a few more times to let him get used to being handled but it was always in the evening after work so I didn't give him the bath he needed before moving in. Finally, on a Saturday afternoon on June 7th, he became our 6th housecat. He received his first bath and while I was expecting to be scratched and bitten, he only made a brief struggle to escape, gave one little mew in protest, and then submitted meekly to his bath.

After he was dry, I showed him the litter box and watched as he started exploring. He made himself at home and started playing with the cat toys right away.



My dad suggested we call him Tiger, since he's a big Tiger Woods fan and he was watching golf on the TV at the time. Our other cats watched him but left him alone. A few days later, Bebe decided to check him out.

Tiger's Story Part 1 - The Hedge Cat

Late one night in May of 2003, I heard a cat mewing in our hedge. I searched for it but could only get a glimpse of a small kitten with grey stripes in the beam from the flashlight since it would slip away every time I got close. It was just as well that I couldn't catch it since we already had five other cats and we didn't want another cat. However, the next night it was back again and the cries were getting more desperate so I put out a bowl of food. Every day I would look for the kitten and it was still in our hedge so I kept feeding him. Here is the first picture I managed to take of the kitten by sticking my arm in the hedge with the camera blindly aimed at him.

I kept feeding him and he got used to me and he finally came close enough so that I could catch him. He struggled a little bit but then calmed down and started purring as I stroked him. I showed him to my parents, discovered it was a little boy kitten but then I had to let him go again since it was nearly midnight and it was too late to bathe him to get rid of the fleas that were crawling on him.
