Its Not Just Rain That's Wet

I was wandering around the garden in search of some amusement when I heard the female two legs say she was going to water the greenhouse. I thought that was silly myself because the greenhouse never grows but she knows best.

I watched as she went to the tap and turned it on and took the long snake all the way to the greenhouse. She twisted the snake's neck and then I heard water going everywhere in the greenhouse. I heard Max squeal and run out. he likes to have a sleep in between the cucumber plants and it gets really warm in there - he likes the warmth.

I was watching the drips come out of the other end of the snake where she had tied it to the tap. She's got a big bucket under the tap to catch the drips and I sometimes go and drink out of it. It's nice and cold the water there - not like the stuff they leave about indoors. That gets all warm and horrible to drink. Anyway I was thinking about a little tipple to slake my thirst when I wondered about what happened to this end of the snake if he wasn't tied to the tap. I gave it a tap and nothing happened. A couple more and still nothing. Then I gave it a big tap swinging on the snake and it all came away from the tap.

It flooded all over the path and over me and I heard a voice from the greenhouse saying "Have you switched the tap off?"

"No!" I thought "But I wish someone would - I'm getting soaked!"

Then he came out and saw me and saw how wet I was. He laughed. Now that is very rude. We cats don't appreciate being laughed at especially when we are in difficulties. I waited until he was near enough and rubbed my wet body all against his legs.

"Oh OK mate I'll dry you." He soothed thinking I was asking for that. I just wanted to let him know how cold wet water feels on your legs.

Still I got a nice rub down with the big fluffy towel and she cuddled me to warm me up. They still think the snake shot off the tap by itself. Don't let on will you.
