1. The hummer
If that hummingbird sounds anything like the ones in my neighborhood, I'm not sure I'd call it a song. More like a screech

2. Violet Crowned Hummers
make a high "chewy chewy chewy".... more of a whistly noise than Anna's hummers.

8. That's a great pic.
Has the cat learned yet that the parrot fights back? Is that why they coexist so peacefully?

9. Maybe...
I found it in a google pic search. My cats got along with my bunny. I always watched them together, though. It just seemed unwise to leave them alone.

12. The only way that nasty cat could get a songbird
is if the bird fell dead at it's feet.

Heeeeere kitty kitty kitty.

13. i hate cats, they go around purrin...
and drop all their fur in
your oatmeal.

I HATE CATS!

They sneak around your house,
and they claw up your couch,
and in the alley they lick dead rats.

And if you kiss them 'cause they're cute,
It makes me want to puke,
You got rat germs on your face.

I HATE CATS!

They knock down your plants,
They have kittens on your pants,
in the closet.

I HATE CATS!

No, I wouldn't really mind
a Tiger or a Lion,
But you can take your plain old cat.

And all your kitty litter,
and cans of chopped liver,
and throw them in a gunny sack.

I HATE CATS!

They make you sneeze,
and you start to wheeze,
and they always have a lot of fleas.

So if you wouldn't mind,
Would you take your feline,
and leave it at that,

Cause, I HATE CATS!

a friend of mine in chicago wrote that song. name him if you can.

14. Can't do it
but it's definitely reflective of my feeling about cats.
