Well, not EVERYONE on the street is as enamored with my mini horses as I am! The Porch Ponies spend a good bit of time in the front yard, and this means mooching at the front door. (Porch Pony Peekers!)

Anyway, back to our story! My calico kittens grew up to become Calico Cats. They are fed each day on the front porch. YES......... you see the problem...

The first time that cat food landed on the front porch, four cats raced to the porch like monkeys swinging through the jungle. They landed with delicate little kitty grace and commenced to belly up to the Purina Table. All was well until a moment later the thud of little hooves landed on the porch. Four little cat faces look up in horror.

Napolean gazed down on their little picnic with Great Interest. I was certain that once he taste tested the Purina picnic, he'd lose interest. Wrong! The moment he tasted cat food, Napolean the Little Emperor moved in to seize control of the bowl. Tiny Emperors LIKE Purina Cat Chow!

Calico Cats do NOT LIKE Tiny Emperors! Calico Cats do NOT LIKE Porch Ponies!

I hurried to hustle the Tiny Emperor off the porch, and move the cat food while I pondered the mystery of why a little gray horse would even like the tast of cat food.

Hmmmm......Whodathunkit????
