: ince then, Mrs. Hickman and I
i have had a new saying, "lie's
wilder llian Mrs. Bunting's cat "
I must confess, that as a l >y
! I was not always kind. Helng an j
only child before TV days, I had
I to improvise i little fun. Some-
inns I slipped up behind grand- j
! mother, who spent her time knit- .
ling and rocking, and lied the hem

,i new farm hill that vitally affects

Continuing, Pickle said "Be as

play much.
One summer duy I killed a big
rattlesnake with a fine set of rat-
tles I had an old Big Ben alarm
clock that was worn out. 1 had re-
inovod the cover to expose the
1 works. 'Hie alarm clapper stuck
i up in the air and still moved wt U.
I fastened the snake rattle.-, to that
clapper, worked the outfit, set the
alarm, put the thing down D\ old

Ton) sprang a good six feel straight
away and took off for the bushes
like he had been hi-lifcd If any
youngstei doesn't know what that
means, ask Grandpa — anybody's
Grandpa, it you don't have one of
yo.ir own nearby.
I hat's nature again. I don't know
whether old Tom ever saw a rat-
tler But deep down soniewhi re in
his brain cells was stored some
information or an instinct from his
ancestors ages ago and for away.
It said, "Snake!" — and he was
oft.
A cat can look mighty foolish
when lie makes a mistake or can't
figure something out. Alxuti ten
years ago we had a cat who liked
to sit between us on the sofa and
put one front paw on each of us.
We were living in Austin then. This
cat tust came to us out of the no
when We fed her once and she was
ours We started calling her Kitty-
Poo That was cut down to Kec-Poo.
One day I brought home some
small toy rubber balloons. I blew
one p — a pretty red one — ;uid
pitched it out to Kce Poo. She
eyed it, circled it, decided it was i
fun and rolled it across the floor. I
She was going real good when a j
claw punctured it. It popped. She
iumi>cd back, then began to look ]
for it. Not finding it, she looked at!
us, as if to say. "What do you make ,
of that?" Then, with the baffled
look of one who feels loolish but !
doesn't want it to be known, in |
great dignity she stalked off and j
lay down.
Our present cat gets into some
queer positions to sleep — on his I
I tack, feet in the air, head hang- j
ing over the edge. He looks then
exactly like pictures 1 see of tig is
Someone It'll me why a cat likes
to dash across your path? We had
one just before coming to Bastrop,
a big tiger-striped male who came
by for a meal and stayed on —
like "The Man Who Came to Din-
ner."
My first morning eltore then was
to take the trash out to a burning
place in our back yard. "The Man"
was always wailing at the back
door lie insisted on going with me
to the trash can. inarching ahead
like a soldier, as if he were an
armed g. ard on escort duty. I could
never evade him or speed him up
Finally I gave up.
Cats s|*>il easily. We have to re-
educate ours every day. Indulge
him one twin . and lie will lie back
foi a repeut.
I'm amazed to see how nnicli lie
is like a human child. Active most
of the lime; curious about every-
thing that's new; tiring quickly of
something familiar.
His latest love is to push a pecan
along the floor. He likes it belter
than bis rubber ball, because it
rattles. It look him two weeks to
tire ol playing with a wadded-up
i paper napkin. He attacks it with
! Lry. pitches il into the air, turns
as if to walk away, then whirls
I and attacks again, until it is in
j tatters.
Our cat learns nearly all In
knows by pla.v By Instinct, in the
| natural state lie must hunt and
capture to eat and survive. Most
'of his play is to perfect htm as
a hunter. He is as well equipped
j for Ills role as our children are
for theirs.
I Our cat makes me wonder what
' intelligt nee is, anyway. Is it the
capacity to suivive and reproduce
ones kind? If this were all, the
cat would be ahead of us. But it
stems tluil we I. mans, in addition
| to surviving, miwt K arri to accept
and transmit a very complex load
.it cultuie and traditions. We can
learn a lot by watching other crea-
tures. It lakes much longer for our
young to learn the rich and varied
lore ol human life. Maybe that is
why we arc the masters and they
are the pets.
