You’ve met Sheba before, most notoriously as Sheba the Shack, Jabba the Hut’s third cousin twice removed.
Sheba is quite a character. When she’s not meowing at the neighbors or wriggling out of some wily human’s grasp, she likes to run around outdoors.
This morning was beautifully crisp and bright, with a cool smell of winter in the air, so we took the dog out to run around the yard. Naturally, Sheba followed along. Don’t get her wrong, she goes outside or inside whenever she feels like it, and not because the human can openers are around. But it was sunny out, so out Sheba went…
Sheba loves to play.
And hide among the shrubbery near the neighbors’ basement window.
She ponders the great questions of the universe…
… until she gets bored.
Then off to another hiding place, this one with better camouflage.
She crouches in the bushes, panther-like, awaiting her prey. What will she catch? A pillbug? A spider? Perhaps a small bird? Sheba is clearly the queen of this back yard.
