@checkervest Clearly this feline attention was a problem for Dad, as one doesn't want one's fish to be fished. So began the Paws Race, it's like an arms race but with paws. To solve the problem of the neighbourhood cats who never once caught a single fish, Dad dutifuly erected a perimeter of vertical netting. They just reached over the netting because apparently, cats arms are twice as long as they actually are, when there are fish to be pawed at.
