James Bond unnerneath the garden bench back in the summer
Dearest peoples on the innernets,
This is Elsie Fallulah Graves speakin'. Our mommy has screwed-up...screwed-up B.I.G. Remember how we have been tellin' you 'bout "James Bond"? James Bond is the kitty that showed up a couple of days after Felix went to heaven. Mommy has been tryin' to rescue him. He is very smart...and sneaky, too. We is pritty sure that he was dumped...used to have a home but abandoned when his mommy and daddy moved away...(no offense but we think his former mommy and daddy are loser jerks!). James is now completely freaked out 'cause he's on the streets alone. Mommy has been feedin' him in the trap and finally got him to freely go in and out of the trap for supper.
So...yesterday mornin' mommy set the trap. I watched her from our bedroom window...she put the stinky food in the trap just like she has been doin' every day since August. I waited and waited...and finally, James Bond showed up. He went right inside the trap and...BANG...the door shut and he was inside!
Oh...you just can't imagine the joy and happiness we all feeled. Mommy went runnin' outside to git James Bond. He was SO mad...bangin' his head up against the trap. Mommy tried to talk with him but he was not innerested in any conversation.
Mommy went to pick up the trap...and...this is where mommy screwed up...B.I.G. See, mommy buyed a trap when James showed up. It is a collapsable trap and mommy had to put it together when she got it. What mommy didn't realize is that she put the trap together WRONG!!! So...when she went to pick up James Bond in the trap...the back end came off and within 'bout 5 seconds, James was outta the trap and gone.
I just couldn't believe my eyes...James was gone in an instant. Mommy cried. She feels awful and is so very worried. She left the trap set out but it is not set. She took the food out and set it in front in the hopes James would come back at some point to eat but he never did. Before she goes to work today, mommy is gonna set out a whole big can of salmon...Mmmm...tastey...in the hopes that it will lure him back. She's gonna give him a break from the trap and just set the food in front of it.
Oh, James Bond, we is so worried 'bout you. Please know that mommy is just tryin' to help you. Please, please PUH-LEEZ come back and at least eat some supper...'kay? It just ain't gonna be right until you do.
Very truly yours,
Elsie Fallulah Graves
