Maude my cat was always at my side as often as possible from 6 weeks old. She was now about a year old and watched the neighborhood boys play softball with me. The boys were about 5 years old and I got them a Dollar Store plastic bat and all rubber softball set. One day after about 6 games together I pointed to 3rd base and said, "We do not have a 3rd baseman.". Maude left my side and went over and set on 3rd base. I said, "Maude wants to play ball ." She did. She would only leave 3rd base to lay out on the ball when it came to her area of the field until one of us took it from under her. The boys would now knock on our door and ask me if Maude could come out to play ball with them? She would run out ahead of us and sit on 3 rd base and wait for us. A true story... Sandy B
