One in a million squat. / myLot

As I arose from the toilet seat the other day and turned to flush, I noticed blood on the seat. I was immediately alarmed of course but on closer inspection I saw a very dead, very squashed, very bloody mosquito. It was a pure fluke but what a terrible way to go.

Ugh not a nice discovery really, but also a relief of the most important kind!

@Jackalyn Hi Banjo here, Tickle's owner. You actually catch those things?? I prefer to sit and watch them buzz around with an intelligent look on my face. This drives my hoomin to distraction whereupon I smirk and go back to sleep.

@MsTickle Hello Ms Tickle. Please tell my Human I need (another snack.) I got into the catnip and now I have the munchies. Love from Freya the Catblog Cat. I will gladly squash the odd mosquito for you. I am seasoned and practiced at that.

That would be unnerving, for sure, but also satisfying once the source was discovered. No more butt scratching!!

It didn't bite me (my butt was covered up till just before I sat) I think he must have bitten one of my pets.

It was very quick and considering how quickly they react to movement I think he was very lucky.

I doubt too many mozzies die that way! What a tale he could tell if he had lived!
