Callie was getting too old for the job. So it was mine. But I didn't plan on getting dive-bombed by a mockingbird building her nest...or adopting the baby who fell out. No joke! I'm a cat, but I do \u003ci\u003enot\u003c\/i\u003e eat birds. Mice, yes. Birds, no. Flea -- that's what I named her -- couldn't even fly. She was so scared when she toppled onto my head that she said, \"Eat me...it's quicker than starving to death.\" \u003cbr\u003e She was pathetic. I had to help her. The first step was protecting Flea -- and me -- from the monster rats in the barn (\u003ci\u003ethat's\u003c\/i\u003e saying a mouthful!) and Bullsnake under the woodpile. Next, Callie and I had to teach Flea to fly. After all, how could she stay up North with us when her bird family was flying to Florida. I'm not a Florida kind of cat. It's just too hot for us furry types. I know I'll miss my Flea. But she'll come back -- after she's seen the world!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBill Wallace (1947-2012) grew up in Oklahoma, where he and his friends rode horses, went fishing, and had campouts.
