Erma As A Kitten
My friend, Patsy, was going through a rough patch about 16 or 17 years ago. We've all done that at one time or another. It was a time of transition. During this time she moved from her house into an apartment for a short time. Very little time passed before she bought a condo, and soon found herself moving again. Most people know that moving is very high on the stress meter, and to do it twice in one year is off the charts.
During this time she got a cat. Her little girl, Bek, who was about 12 years old at the time, wanted a pet. Patsy felt like it would be a good thing for both of them. They went down to the animal shelter, and after great deliberation, Bek chose a black and white cat. She named her Erma. Erma, the cat!
Erma was no ordinary cat. Noooo! Indeed, she turned out to be a very special cat, smarter than the average cat. Patsy and Bek worked with her, and over the years they taught her many tricks. She can put herself into a trance and sleep all day, she can drink water from a faucet, she can jump up on the hutch and walk in and around all the dishes without breaking a single plate, she can even fly through the air with the greatest of ease (see photo), and she can do far too many other things to write about here.....in fact, I think it would be easier to just show you.
I video taped Erma's greatest feat. To get all the poop on Erma ~ click here.
Enjoy!

i love it! but that top one is not my cat. infact neither of them look like her.
what do you mean they're not your cat. i took those pictures myself. do you know how hard it is to find a flying cat that looks just like Erma? and what about the one using the facilities. huh? what about that, missy? "genius, pure genius," i say!
