A couple weeks back I shared with you Lola’s obsession with pork spare ribs (See Lola Loves Spare Ribs for more details.) Over the course of two or so weeks Lola was bringing, from what I imagine is a hidden stash, ribs into the house. Until last night I had assumed her stash had dwindled since in the last week I have seen no such activity…

Yesterday Lola and I returned from a housesitting gig in the East Bay. While I was unpacking I left the back door to the yard open for Lola to come and go as she needed. After about 30 minutes I realized she’d been gone for a while. I went into the backyard and while I could hear the jingling of her collar, I couldn’t find her anywhere. I finally gave up and assumed she would wander back into the house at her leisure.

I walk into the apartment and hear the tapping of her paws in the hallway, I turn to head towards my room and there she is, sitting right outside my bedroom door. I open my door and walk into my room and there on the carpet is a chicken wing! WTF?! Where did she find a chicken wing? I promptly pick it up and bring it into my roomate’s room to prove that I’m not going crazy and that she is in fact storing pieces of meat in a secret hiding place. I wrap it up in a paper towel and toss it in the trash, hoping this would be the last.

Oh no…This morning I let her out to do her morning biz-nasty and while I’m straightening my har I hear her push through my bedroom door and in her mouth..TWO chicken wings! I’m serious! As if I weren’t already freaked out by the whole spare rib incident, now chicken wings! So creepy!
