When I was little my mommy would take me outside and I'd watch her work in the garden. She said I was a cat in training and you NEVER left a cat like that alone.

I had so much fun chasing all the ants and butterflies and sometimes   these tiny creatures, that my mom called  chipmonks, would come out of holes in the ground and talk with me.

Right from day one, I learned NOT  to even think about chasing birds.
