Strange cries from outside!

In the middle of the night last night I was rudely shaken awake by some loud noises from outside the bedroom window. Mommy must have also been disturbed by it because she rolled onto her side and put the spare pillow over her head. It's strange that she didn't get up to see what the noise was, could she already know about it? Is that why it didn't startle her?

I didn't care how scary the noises were, I was determined to see what was making such a noise. I peeked through the "blinds" strips and saw a cat, sitting alone. No, she wasn't sitting, she was standing but with her front side close to the ground and her back side curled upward! She was sticking her butt in the air and screaming for attention! What causes such behavior? It didn't even sound like the voice of a delicate lady cat at all. It sounded like a beast! What would drive any self respecting female to do such a thing?

I continued to watch for a while, she moved to the other side of the bushes, then walked to the other side of the street, but with each stop she kept crying and curling her butt up into the air. It was truly sad to see that. After a little while though she drew the attention of an ugly looking cat with parts of his ear missing. He must have been trying to help her but when he got close to her she'd just hiss at him and chase him away. What is her problem?

I ended up going back to bed and curled in mommy's lap until the sun came up and the day started as usual. Sometime in the middle of the day I heard that same cry but it was a different voice. I looked out the window again and saw that it was a very different lady cat, but she had the same problem. I am SO happy I am not an outdoor cat, there must be something they are eating that makes them feel sick and cry like that.

It is now bedtime, mommy and daddy are already asleep. So far there is no sign of those unhappy females, and I sure hope they stay away and just let us sleep peacefully tonight. Though I can't help but feel sorry for them. I hope they get well soon, for the sanity of us all.
