That Darn Cat!

And no, I'm not talking about the movie. I'm talking about our neighbour's cat.

Last week we got quite a lot of snow. Not as much as in London but enough so that I had to clear our yard. I put my little doggy on a long leash (about 6 metres) and started on the job. Not long after I had almost completed and stopped to catch my breath, our neighbour's stupid "I fear no dog!" cat appeared on our yard.

Helka, who hates cats (unless they are my aunt's), of course started sneaking up on the nuisance, who had by now reached the area where Helka still could barely reach.

Next what happened: Helka started running towards the cat. The cat fled and Helka reached the end of her leash. Snap. The lock of her collar gave up. I started calling her back and luckily the asshole cat hid under the stuff next to our outbuilding and Helka returned to me.

Stupid stupid cat!

This is an ex-collar

Hey, my dog is small and cute! Not a Napolitan who's cute only as a puppy. No offense.
