mom's cryin', an' it's all cocoa's fault. when mom got home for lunch, she let her out to go pee, an' cocoa ran an' grabbed a robin an' kilt it even though mom was yellin' at her to stop before she even got to the birdie. broke its neck. it had just caught a big ol' worm, an' it wasn't even halfway swallowed yet. mom lost her cool and whacked cocoa onna head wif her shoe to make her let go of the birdie. when she picked it up to go bury it, she saw that it had a white coating ofur one eye, so it nefurr even saw the damdog coming. we hopes it wasn't one of the little fev-vers we watched grow up onna carport this year. that would be too sad. we're furry glad we don't go outside an' do bad things, 'cause gettin' whacked onna head wif a shoe would prolly kill us!
mom's still cryin', an' cocoa's got a time out inna bafroom, 'cause mom don't wanna lay eyes on her. she's gonna be there a long, long, long time. mom's goin' back to work an' won't be home until after six. if cocoa's lucky, dad'll get home before that.
damdog, makin' our mom cry. she really suffers when little things get hurt or die, an' seein' it happen has just borked her brain. are your beans this goofy? it's not like it was one of us or anything. guess she just loves all li'l critters, even ones she doesn't know.

Purrs to your human guys. I think you should all cuddle with here. Unfortunately Cocoa was doing what came naturally. At least the birdy's end was quick.
My mom gets all sad with stuff like that too. Just the other evening she found a poor little dove who'd died near our patio--I heard her talking to it when she gathered it up to bury it some place safe.
The woofie chased a birdie? The woofies near me don't chase birdies.
Oh, don't be too mad at the damdog, I'm sure he didn't mean to make you cry!
damdog is BADDDDDDD!!!
and that's all i have to say about that!
My Mommie gets sad about things like that too. If it's eye was all white, maybe it was his time to go anyway. Because that is a bad disadvantage in the wild.
Momma gets upset about that stuff, too. Titus killed a bunny last year and she was soooo mad and upset. He got a long time out, too.
She doesn't mind when we kill those jumpy, brown spiders, though. Maybe Cocoa and Titus should stick to spiders?
Love,
Tazo
This is a hard one guys. Nature -vs- compassion. Cocoa was doing what damdogs do. If I got to go outside, I think I would eat birdies again. And mice, and everything else I could get my paws on. For me, it was about survival. But I still think I'd do it again...See? It's hard for humans to get their brains around our ways.
I'm sorry all that happened; my mom would be that way, too.
my Mom is the same way, gets all upset. she told me a bird was in the four lane highway when they were driving home from dinner today and she saw it get hit by a car and was all freaked out
