Just when I thought I had escaped The Wrath Of The Evil Lawn Men last Fall, they have returned to torment me.

Last week I was on my couch, splayed out in my usual manner next to my food bowl when all of a sudden I heard this noise coming from outside. I didn't know what it was at first, so I perked up and looked around. Once the noises started getting really loud outside my window, I turned around and BOLTED across my couch and up my ramp. My human was laughing at me, as he had never seen me move so fast before.

I figured that once I was up on my perch, I'd be safe, but just when the
noise outside my window would fade away, it would start up again, getting
gradually louder and louder. I could finally see out the window from my perch, and, you guessed it. It was The Return Of The Evil Lawn Men.

I sure showed them though. Every time they would come by with their very LOUD and very ORANGE (!!!) machines, I would tuck my head behind my branch, and compress my body really, really flat. HA! I made myself INVISIBLE! (I should point out that normally to make myself invisible, I merely shut my eyes and turn my head). Those Evil Lawn Men will NEVER get me! They can't even see me!! (I crack myself up sometimes)

Well...

I thought I had given The Evil Lawn Men the slip last Friday, but they came by here looking for me AGAIN today. This time my human wasn't in the office, so I hid under the desk (with my head all black) and would NOT come out until my human came back into the room. My human makes me feel safe, so I came out and calmed down within minutes of sighting him. He hasn't really been too much help, as all he does is laugh at me when I behave this way.

I just don't get it. When I was in the wild down in Fort Lauderdale , FL
before my human rescued me, I was CONSTANTLY trying to evade The Evil Lawn Men. They are EVERYWHERE down in Florida , so it was always good to scope out the really tall orange trees in advance, and have a contingency plan for ESCAPE, just in case they were to find me.

I thought since I moved up to Connecticut with my human, I had finally rid myself of The Evil Lawn Men.

SOMEHOW they managed to figure out where I am.
