Spoon Game
I have been using small colorful baby spoons when I fed Tiger to get all the food out of the can. I put it on the wash tub in laundry room. He likes to attack the spoon and hide it from me. I find them in all different places in the house. I found a blue one under the treadle sewing machine in entry way and the red one in the bottom of a box of stuffing for pillows. This morning I was putting wood in the stove and there was a spoon behind the stove in the corner. The strangest place I have found one was on top of the fireplace in a cup I got from Glacier National Park. I didn’t know he could get up there. When I find the spoons they all have little teeth marks on them.

3 Tiger and Gray Squirrel
Today I let Tiger out the door downstairs and he torn off over the snow piles like he was on a mission. He went right over to one of the birch trees and climbed part way up the tree. I looked up and there was a fat Gray squirrel going fast up to the top and over to the next tree. Tiger did get back down but went only a few feet from the tree like he was waiting for squirrel to come back down and have a few rounds with him. I not sure he knows that the squirrel would win. When he came back in I gave him his treat in the cat bed in front of the big window upstairs. He was contently eating the treat when his head came up and he growls and is all puffed up and tries to get on the deck though the window. There on the back deck was the same fat squirrel perched between the deck rail and the bird feeder. The squirrel turns his head and sees the cat and forgets the bird feeder and jumps from the deck and to the birch tree and almost looks like he is flying from tree to tree. Tiger set there for a while like he wanted to fly over the tree limbs with the squirrel or maybe just take the squirrel limb from limb.
