I was just thinking back to one of my favorite Minnie memories. July 4th may he been her favorite day of the year. We have a large fireworks show a couple of blocks from my house every July 4th, and one July 4th we were hanging out in the backyard. Of course the loud fireworks really freak the birds out, and they were just enough distraction for Minnie to go and catch one. She took it in the house and paraded around her kill to every room to show it off to everyone. Then she went and sat on the couch with her bird trophy to make sure we could all see it and get jealous. I ended up having to offer her some chicken to finally get her to drop the bird so I could throw it out, haha. Her love of chicken was so strong that she immediately forgot about the bird and never went looking for it again. Still, I think she learned a lesson, as next time she caught a squirrel she only brought back the little bone of the leg she was chewing on.
