To make up for all that lost time - Tales of Yoda

Yoda caught a bird that day! That was awfully surprising, given his slow reflex. Actually, he doesn't have any intention of killing the insects or birds he have caught. He just want to pursue them and "play" with them (often till death).

Heard from my father it was a smelly and dirty affair because the poor bird was so scared, it peed and shitted on the floor of my living room. Perhaps owing to shock, the bird was initially paralysed and couldnt get away from the claws of Yoda but eventually something must have told it that it must definitely fly away or it will "huo huo bei wan si". Hence, he flew away from a very disappointed predator.

The ironic thing is, given his predatory streak, he was in fact no more than a scaredy cat. This was evident this morning when he went into hiding after he saw an Indian worker do maintenance works outside our window.

And one thing I must confess, I did not know that female cats and dogs have periods too! And inf act there are surfing boards for them to use as well. So cute! At this point, I thought we are very lucky Yoda is a male if not we would have more things to clean up after him.
