The year is 2007- Bosque Farms, New Mexico. A pregnant cat named Princess makes her nest inside a cabinet in a garage where a young family lives. A few days later, the caring family moves the new feline family into a hall closet in the house where they can take better care of them. Among the 6 kittens is Blossom- and this is the beginning of her story. She was overall a sweet kitten- loved to do the things most kittens do. After about 9 weeks the kittens started finding loving homes. Blossom went home with a friend of the family that raised her. This particular friend lives in a retirement community, a place known by many to be haunted, as several old timers have taken their final breaths here. Blossom had a hard time adjusting to the strange things that were happening around her new home, such as doors opening and closing by themselves; glass items falling and breaking without being provoked; Radios would turn on and off on their own, and every once in a while “shadows” could be seen
from the corner of your eye. After several months, this started to take its toll on Blossom- She would hide any place she could find- behind large pieces of furniture, under the bed, or inside boxes or paper bags. Her owners noticed her acting more and more strange as the days passed. Eventually something inside Blossom snapped! She would no longer be the sweet innocent kitten she once was. This was about to turn into a game of “Scare, or Be Scared”, and there was no way Blossom was going to lose this game. Now when Blossom is approached by anyone other than her owner, she turns into SCARY CAT!!! Being alive or being a ghost holds no bearing on how this cat will react to you. If you get within 3 feet of her she will growl at you. If you get any closer, she shows her teeth and the show begins- she will snarl and hiss and growl and lunge at you; if cats had a book of bad words, Blossom would use every single one of them on you just for being less than 3 feet away from her. Its fun to watch her go off on a person, but even better to watch her growl and hiss at thin air. 
I would be confident in saying she is more ferocious than most guard dogs, even though you would never know it by looking at her through a window in her home. If you are outside, and she is inside, only then will she paw at you from the window and act sweet- but the moment you set foot on her turf, her eyes glow, she drools a little and unleashes “SCARY CAT!!!” Unusually temperamental? Or possessed by the trapped spirit of a very cranky old man? Nobody knows for sure. One thing is certain tho- Whether you are alive or Un-alive, Blossom is still one scary cat!
**thanx to the owner of blossom for sharing the pix- the actual photo of “SCARY CAT!!!” was taken by me- the other 2 were donated to the blog by Blossom’s owner.

Who knew that so many of our city busses died by incineration? The city has all new busses now… I have looked for articles on city bus fires and there is not a single one. I wonder if that’s because 1. Aliens were involved in the fires, or 2. nobody cares about city bus fires, or 3. it was an inside job. Any way you look at it, this is definitely something you have to look at twice.
