It has been raining around our house recently, and while Jack, like any good cat, dislikes being out in the rain, he has no problems with running around in the mud afterwards.
This creates certain problems because Jack then tracks mud wherever he goes, including across the floor, on the sheets, in the shower, and perhaps most amusingly, all over our cars.
Now up until now I hadn’t really realised how frequently Jack gets up on to the tops of our cars when they’re parked in the drive.
We’ve seen him do it once or twice while we’re hanging out laundry or otherwise working outside, but it hasn’t been common.
Then the other day, after it had been raining, I came out to go to work, and got in the car. Only from inside the car did it become apparent that all up and down both the front and back windows were a series of little muddy paw prints.
Subsequent days saw similar situations, until the yard dried up again, and the paw prints disappeared.
I wonder where else he gets into while we’re not looking.
