For The Hell Of It

Our neighbor’s long black haired cat killed all five baby birds in nest nestled in evergreen tree in front of house, the wife and I decorate for Christmas each year. The animal kingdom is cruel. Only the strong survive, though in this case. The well fed house cat allowed to roam outside with nothing but time on its hands to cause mischief . Like when I was a kid, out all day shoplifting, just for the hell of it.
