I was out in the garden late the other night and suddenly mum heard yowling and swearing so she ran out with the torch. She saw me on the hedge puffed up to more than ten times my usual size, then she saw the introoder inside our purrison fence. It was shadowy and the torch was a bit dim so she isn't sure whether it was a fox or a floofy dark brown cat. Dad said it was more likely a cat because it would be harder for a fox to get over the fence. Mum yelled and it ran off under the bushes. I went to chase it but she yelled louder and told me to go indoors. After a while my fur went back down and I had some supper, but my tail refused to de-floof.
Mum's note: The fence is eight feet high and not easy for the boys to climb over as the horizontal timbers are on the outside so they can't get a foot hold to get over. However that makes it easier for cats on the outside to get in although that has only happened twice as far as we know.

You did good alerting Mom and Dad to the introoder! The outside kitties had a big hiss and scream fight in our back yerd a couple of nights ago and this morning we found a dead possum!
ReplyDeleteWow you must have been really angry to STILL have your tail all floofed up like that! I wonder who the "introoder" was?
ReplyDeleteI remember when my Bobo's tail used to get like that...I have never seen my Cody's tail like that, ever!
Wow, Flynn! That tail is so puffy!! We don't blame you for getting protective of your home! That introoder better know who he's dealing with!
ReplyDeleteHoly moley! I can't believe the naughty introoder stayed! That tail looks liek it belongs on a lion!!

Your tail is really poofy. That intruder is just lucky that your Mom sent you inside.
ReplyDeleteHerman
Now that's an impressive tail; we would have fled!
ReplyDeleteWell done for scaring the introoder away. We had an introoder in our garden. I never saw what it was, just saw the big paw prints in the snow. Simba saw it and said it was big and hairy and dribbly! Good job I stay indoors at the moment xx
ReplyDeleteOah I just love that floofy tail~!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, Flynn, good job on introoder patrol! We can see how a cat could get in -- not so easy for the poor thing to get out, though!
ReplyDeleteWe just love your poofy, bottle-brush tail!
Wow! That's a big tail! When you have had other feline intruders, did you fluff up to such a grand size? Maybe it was a an opossum. And in your fenced area too! Is there a footprint? Thank goodness your mum was there. We don't want you to be too brave! Love you lots
ReplyDeleteThat's an exciting introoder story. We wonder whta it was. That tail is impressive!

ReplyDeleteGreat floofiness!!!!! You are the cat!!!!!! Good job!
ReplyDeleteWow that is really scary Flynn. Glad Mom got rid of that guy and that you didn't have to fight him off. We sure don't want you hurt. That silly tail is still in fight mode. Take care.
ReplyDeleteWhat a magnificent floofy tail Flynn - we think if the intruder had seen it he would have been back over the high fence in an instant and running like mad to get away.
ReplyDeleteYou deserved your supper and hope you got seconds too.
Flynn, that introoder was no match for you and that tail!! The farm is safe!!
ReplyDeletewow good thing you scared them, hope they got outa your yard
ReplyDeleteMEOWZA!!!!!!!!!!!! Sammy applauds you as one mighty fine watch cat!!!!!!! Sammy is our watch cat also.
ReplyDeleteSince moving, we have two kitties that appear on our roof looking down on our balcony.......they have both found a way down on our balcony and when confronted by them, Sammy has puffed up like a blow fish and thrown a hissy fit and chased them both off again....he's our watch cat!!!!!
Love to both of you and your 'rents.
Wow! What an adventure! Sounds like fun, and your floofed-up tail is a signal to us that you had a GOOD time! =)

Wow that is a big floofy tail!! It sounds like you had quite an adventure with whatever that was you saw! But even more than that - we are so impressed that you listened so well when your mom told you to go in the house!
ReplyDeleteOh, Gus said that when he grows up he can have a big floofy orange tail like that sometimes too!
And duh, mom forgot to add that we think it is great you mentioned the Random Feline's commentathon - we were just over thre commenting again (mom had to leave their mom a note) and saw quite a few people who were there from here!
ReplyDeleteWow! You are scaring me with that tail! What was it that made you so ruffle up your tail so?!
ReplyDeleteWow! Your tail really did get big, Flynn! It looks like a raccoon tail, there! It must have been some big introoder for you to puff yourself up like that!
ReplyDeleteGood thing your Mom was around to shoo it off.
A 10 times bigger Flynn would scare the you know what out of us too!
ReplyDeleteWhooo that is one puffed up tail!!! We're glad the introoder is gone!
