When we first moved in to this complex, all was well, but then we started hearing these horrible sounds! Becky and I would look at each other, and ask "What is that awful sound?" It really sounded like a baby with some sort of disorder. Finally, we found what was making the sound: It was a cat! I've never thought a cat could make a sound like that.
Then the war began. The "cat offensive" began one night when Becky was fed up with the sound. It kept getting louder! Now, I wasn't looking when it happened, but Becky opened up the door to shoo the bugger away, but it was sitting right next to the door. Naturally, Becky was freaked out by the satan cat there at our door looking like this.

I can only assume that the cat looked like that. Regardless, since Becky was so freaked out, she yelled at the cat, saying "You're gross!!"
The cat fired the first shot. We are just defending ourselves! Well, after the smoke cleared, Grossey (as we now called him) didn't come around for a couple of weeks. After which time, he attacked again! We were coming in the house one day, and Grossey ran into our house! We're still not sure why, but it happened. Then we went on the offensive.
The defense began one night in February. We heard that sound that told us that Grossey was just outside our window, so I thought Tonight's the night! I'm gonna get that little bugger! So I went out on our porch, and kicked the stupid thing towardss the stairs. Up to that point, I don't think it disliked me. It does now.
That was close to the end. Since then, we found out that the cat's real name is Robin, even though we still generally call it Grossey, or I call it "The poor little insane cat". We thought that the folks upstairs would take him with them (they were feeding it -- that's probably why it sticks around) but it's still here!! We don't know what to do!
Becky isn't supporting the war as strongly anymore. The Robin insurgency is getting to her. We feel like we should call the pound, but we know it's going to end up being put down because it obviously has something seriously wrong with it. That's where we are now.
