Yes Sandra strikes again. Sandra has free run of the backyard for most of the day unless we got out. I was out having my coffee and thought the cat was making a helluva lot of noise on the verandah roof. Nope, after hearing a typical 'too scream worked out it was Sandra. She must have climbed the grapevine to get up. She was soggy (choose a day when it's drizzling with rain why don't you), dirty and when I went to grab her glided reasonably gracefully off the roof. Hmm.
BTW all other pets here are terrified of Sandra.

I'm confused. What happened? Is she okay?

She's fine. Sandra's cage is on the back verandah and we let her out her cage during the day to roam around the backyard. The dogs and cats don't bother her.
She was happy as a lark wandering around on the verandah roof and screaming her little lungs out to the neighbourhood. Just soggy and dirty. The only question now is what we're going to do about clipping her flight feathers. She glided off the roof quite well.

Her Daddy spoils her rotten so she pushes the boundaries continually. Being mean mummy I tend to pull her back into line only to find daddy giving her kisses as soon as I turn my back. :rolleyes:

I'll have to keep that in mind. I think when we say bloody bird or bloody kid it's no different to rotten/bratty bird etc. Maybe it's an Australianism (ok is that even a word?)
