Jamie 2 - Exploring the Yard

scream_3

Without moving a millimeter, Jamie opened her mouth wide and let out a piercing scream. The sudden noise in the quiet house startled even Jamie, but Mittens lost little time before pouncing. Grabbing Jamie firmly in her mouth, she headed straight for the cat door in the kitchen.

Now the bathroom has two doors, one leading to Lucy's room and one to her parents' room. Jamie thanked God profusely and often in the weeks following this ill-fated night that both Lucy and her parents woke up when she screamed, and immediately climbed out of bed to investigate. Mittens tried to duck behind a dresser, but Lucy's father swatted her with a rolled-up magazine - THUD! - and Jamie felt herself drop gently to the floor.

So Jamie was rescued from Mittens grasp, although between the aching back she received sky-diving from her cage and the cuts and scratches resulting from her capture by Mittens she was unable to adventure for several very long weeks. But neither Lucy nor Jamie really expected her to give up adventuring altogether. After all, she was a gerbil, and that's the way God made her.
