Cocoa addresses bugs--


“Dear Cocoa,

I am a well-seasoned veteran feline and I have learned a lot through-out my long life.  However, one thing I have never been able to understand is my pet’s aversion to insects.  Insects are the very best fun and they make a great meal.  I mean what other food can you find that leads you on an incredible chase through curtains, windows, bedding, carpeting, etc. which ends with a delectable meal fit for a king/queen?  My pets will chase the bugs down and kill them before I can and then….horror of horrors, they pick it up and toss it in a spot where I can’t get to it!  Can you explain this to me?

Dear Bugless,

Your pets love to chase the bugs as much as you do and they will stop at nothing to be first.  Then they take the bugs to their special place so you can’t eat them because it was their catch.  You must pay strict attention and be the first on the scene when bugs appear.  Climb on whatever you must to reach them.  Get on the cabinets, the bureaus, the curtains, even the stove if you must but be faster than your pets.  And remember, they will cheat by pushing you aside or picking you up so be prepared to race right back in there for your fair catch.
