Cats Versus Fresh Flowers

I love cats.  I love fresh flowers.  I love the way a beautiful vase of freshly cut flowers looks and smells - a fresh bouquet on the dining room table or kitchen counter brings the room alive.

The stalking begins almost at first touch of the vase to the table - they stalk the flowers from the stairway landing, from behind the couch, from behind the drapes.  And before you know it, they are upon them.

Cats love fresh flowers.  They love to sit and stare at them, chew on them, pull them out of the vase.  Toss the leaves all over the house, attack the flower pedals.  Make a mess with the water.  Chew on the leaves and throw up.  Cats versus flowers.  Flowers lose.
