#3 Steve, try using the gerund form of nouns to logically assault the reader in mid sentence. It adds a fingernail down the blackboard for any reader that was not a recipient of a social promotion out of 3rd grade.

#4 And you didn't say anything about Chainey.

I don't know about in Virginny, but in my neck of the woods bobcats were not that large. One would be damned lucky to take down something the size of an adult human. You'd think it would be more afraid of her. Maybe it was rabid.

#8 Around here, it's foxes that kill cats, but usually only small, young ones. As I've said before, animals are adjusting to living among humans, and we'll see more and more "wildlife" adapting to city living. Once they do, it'll be our turn to adapt. They do help to keep down the mice and other small rodents (squirrels are becoming a MAJOR pest) that also inhabit the local area. I have no qualms with it, as long as both the local animals and the humans that live in the area both are aware of each other, and have established a wary truce where we all just leave the other side alone. Sounds like the bobcat followed Fifi home, and decided to take up more permanent residence, only to be surprised to find (gasp!) Humans living in the same area. The ones that survive will learn NOT to enter open windows.

#10 1)Years from now her children will be able to tell their children,"you think this is tough,when I was a kid we had to fight bobcats just to get icecream from freezer."
2)Just another advantage to modern medicine-asking Mother Nature to do a liposuction hurts too much.
