station cat

There's a cat that lives at my station. It's a white cat with a name like snowball, or snowflake or something like that. Every night one of the production folks brings out cat food and water (although I'm not sure they're required to do it). And, it has a little plastic igloo out in the shrubbery.
As cute as this little cat might be, I'm not fooled. I've seen the carnage left in it's wake. Last week there was a dead squirrel by the front door. Marla freaked out when she saw it. And this wasn't just an ordinary little squirrel - it was almost as big as the cat. Last night there was a dead bird by the door - and another one a few feet away - although it might've been parts from the first bird (it was that massacred), I'm not sure.
So, if you're thinking of coming to our station late at night to engage in some tomfoolery (or monkeyshines), I'd advise against it. That cat is out there...waiting to pounce.

You work in a Palace. Look at that front door!
Put a bell on that baby!
Those aren't dead animals by the door, those are "gifts" to whomever puts the food out. You know, like the stack of used interns by the news directors door...oh wait, that's different.
Snowball used to have some friends: they may reappear sooner or later. They actually get along quite well.
In other words... Keep watch for the raccoon and the opossum. I think the opossum met an untimely end on Stall Street several months ago, but that has yet to be confirmed.
This is the first time I've seen your station's call letters. Please God you've never done "Channel 4 News - Get a Whiff"
Channel 4 news? Do you guys ever do the Anchorman gag... "Hello Channel 4 News." "Hello, Evening News Team."
Those who have seen it will be rofl right now.
white cats are creepy, all spectral-like. i should know, i have one.
It's a snow cat on vacation.
