Neighborhood Watch

July 9, 2010 By: Sparkle Cat18 Comments

When we cats look out the window, it is not all about Bird TV. We have other important duties too. For example, I am a member of the Neighborhood Watch team.

It is very important to keep an eye on your neighbors!

I have a perfect view of the back part of the house that belongs to the old lady who lives next door to my human. She seems like she is very nice, but you can never be too careful about your neighbors. She could be a front for a catnip smuggling operation, for all I know!

Do you see any contraband catnip?

That big black thing has me concerned. I think she may be doing some weird experiments with chess pieces.

Don't mess with major pieces!

At first I thought the statue on the table was a real bird. I was wondering why my Bird TV suddenly froze up.

It's not nice to trick kitties like that.

Beyond the old lady’s house and some electrical wiring is another house, and I can see their back door. This is a good thing because I can check out their comings and goings. They can’t get away with anything when I’m watching! Notice all the watering cans on the ledge of the old lady’s deck. I think this gives credence to my suspicion that she may run a catnip growing ring.

Nobody gets away with anything around here!

It’s a good thing somebody is keeping watch around here! My human never knows what goes on with her neighbors. But I know everything!

It's a big responsibility... but I can handle it!

    It’s a good thing you’re on guard. Who knows the strange things that might happen if not for your watchful eyes.

    Nothing is going to happen in your neighbourhood without you knowing about it. We have to agree that all those watering cans do look suspicious.

    It is great that you are keeping an eye on the neighborhood Sparkle – it is very important. And we think you may be correct about the catnip growing ring!

    Your neighbors can’t hide anything from you Sparkle! Maybe the old lady next door will share some of her catnip if you promise not to let her secret out!

    That black thing does look like a chess piece, but who knows? It could also be a giant ashtray from which she hangs her monster-sized catnip joints?

    Good work, Sparkle. I’ll have to organize the cats in this area; maybe they can start a Neighborhood Watch, too. Lord knows, it’s creepy enough around here. 😉

    You are a great snooper person. You saw everything, the black thing does look sneaky. We could use your great snoopervision eyes in our neighborhood. Keep up the good work.

    We’re sure everyone feels safer with you on watch, Sparkle.

    Hmm, your next door neighbhour…yep, could be a grow-op. Though really, what’s wrong with a little catnip smuggling? Oops, did we “say” that out loud? Maybe you could give this lady our email addy? You know, just ’cause we’re friendly and all that. Thanks. 😉
