(708) A Feline Retriever

Recently I met a teenager and heard about her cats. Since she was young, she had quite a few. One of them is called Bow. You see, on his  back there is a patch that looked like a bow. He is a most energectic animal, always ready to play. When he was a kitten, our teenager was in  Grade school then. There was one year she was alone in the house every schoolday morning. All her siblings were in the morning session. Out of boredom, she set out to train her dog to fetch.

Her dog, Duke, loves sitting in front of the TV more than any other activities. Playing catch the ball, no Sir! You must be kidding! So it worked out that Bow was the one who obliged by catching it and bringing the ball back. With daily practice, Bow became pretty good at catching. Whether the throw was high or low, he caught it with ease. It got to the point that the gardening father requested that they change the venue of the throw and catch session.The running around wore out patches of  grass.

The proud owner has Bow's pictures in her handphone. One of the recent ones showed a fat and sleek cat. No one has the time to play active games with him anymore. Guess Bow has to find other things to do.
