The cat entered our home twice before, because I let her in and petted her profusely. In our second visit, I soon discovered that the cat never drank from a running faucet and is pregnant. I could tell when she kept walking in my moms room to find a place to curl up in. I could then tell again when I felt her milk nipples after picking her up.
Sadly, I have not seen her since my mom and I scared her away a couple of days ago. I feel terrible, because I seen how she was jumpy and looked back at us as she ran away. I hope her family is caring for her, but those mats on her long fur say otherwise. I will give the cats guardians the benefit of the doubt as all our neighbors are above the age of 50 and her mats are unnoticeable when one is looking at her. It is culture, to have mouse hunting cats that are strictly for the outdoors.
The cat, she may not even be one of our neighbors, she may be a stray. So, I emailed or local veterinary indicating such. I will await a response from the veterinary office. I may or may not follow the cat one day. I will also ask my neighbors if they know of such a long haired, grey fur, green eyed, young, pregnant cat.
I think my cat reincarnated into a much younger cat with the same eye color and fur color. I opened the door to outside, the cat seen me and immediately walked in. My mom was saying the same cat has been around for a few week now. My cat has been deceased for over two years. My deceased cat was neutered, so the likelihood it is the child of is impossible. But their similarities are striking. When I spoke to the strange cat about this, they looked me directly in the eyes.
I am sure this cat is one of my neighbors, but the poor thing had some skin close mats all over its long winter coat. So, the cat may be an outdoor mouser cat or a wild stray. The cat was so gentle and loving.
My deceased cat was here for a few years and liked to wander outdoors, so maybe his scent is everywhere.
I had to trick the cat to go back outside as it wanted to lay on my mothers bed. Which is a definite no no. What is the phenomenon? Has this ever happened to you before?
the most fun a girl can have is finding parallels, noticing patterns, making connections, contemplating
A declassified World War II-era government guide to “simple sabotage” is currently one of the most popular open source books on the internet. The book, called “Simple Sabotage Field Manual,” was declassified in 2008 by the CIA and “describes ways to train normal people to be purposefully annoying telephone operators, dysfunctional train conductors, befuddling middle managers, blundering factory workers, unruly movie theater patrons, and so on. In other words, teaching people to do their jobs badly.” Over the last week, the guide has surged to become the 5th-most-accessed book on Project Gutenberg, an open source repository of free and public domain ebooks. It is also the fifth most popular ebook on the site over the last 30 days, having been accessed nearly 60,000 times over the last month (just behind Romeo and Juliet).

Because it was written during active wartime, the book includes various suggestions for causing physical violence and destruction, such as starting fires, flooding warehouses, breaking tools, etc. But it also includes many suggestions for how to just generally be annoying within a bureaucracy or office setting. Simple sabotage ideas include: “Insist on doing everything through ‘channels.’ Never permit short-cuts to be taken in order to expedite decisions.” “Make ‘speeches.’ Talk as frequently as possible and at great length. Illustrate your ‘points’ by long anecdotes and accounts of personal experiences. Never hesitate to make a few appropriate ‘patriotic’ comments.” “Bring up irrelevant issues as frequently as possible.” “Haggle over precise wordings of communications, minutes, resolutions.” “‘Misunderstand’ orders. Ask endless questions or engage in long correspondence about such orders. Quibble over them when you can.” “In making work assignments, always sign out the unimportant jobs first. See that the important jobs are assigned to inefficient workers of poor machines.” “To lower morale and with it, production, be pleasant to inefficient workers; give them undeserved promotions. Discriminate against efficient workers; complain unjustly about their work.” “Hold conferences when there is more critical work to be done.” “Multiply paperwork in plausible ways.” “Make mistakes in quantities of material when you are copying orders. Confuse similar names. Use wrong addresses.” “Work slowly. Think out ways to increase the number of movements necessary on your job” “Pretend that instructions are hard to understand, and ask to have them repeated more than once. Or pretend that you are particularly anxious to do your work, and pester the foreman with unnecessary questions.” “Snarl up administration in every possible way. Fill out forms illegibly so that they will have to be done over; make mistakes or omit requested information in forms.” The guide also suggests “general devices for lowering morale and creating confusion,” which include “Report imaginary spies or danger to the Gestapo or police,” “act stupid,” “Be as irritable and quarrelsome as possible without getting yourself into trouble,” “Stop all conversation when axis nationals or quislings enter a cafe,” “Cry and sob hysterically at every occasion, especially when confronted by government clerks.”
