Hungry?

Spring must be here now.  The grass is getting green, the tulips are blooming, and the cat is coughing up fur balls.  There’s nothing like getting woken up at 3:45 AM by the sound of the cat yacking up a wad of stuff that must have fur in the middle somewhere.  For those who are fortunate enough to have never seen a fur ball, let me dispel some misconceptions.  Fur balls don’t look anything like nice round balls of fur.  They aren’t like a furry tumble weeds bouncing around the house.  No, they are much more like a cat food and fur sausages.  I’ve never seen another cat’s fur balls, except ours, so I assume all fur balls look similar to what I’ve described.  It could be that our cat is just a freak, so if you have a cat, I’d like to hear what your experience is.
