feline cannibal dream segment...

it is night time, i am in the kitchen, a young woman comes in and alerts me to a crisis outside ...there are three kittens cannibalizing two adult cats outside on the patio! (none of these cats are mine) the cats appear to have been alive when the kittens started eating them...it's so gross, fur and entrails all over...so i sort of spring into action as best i can...the idea is not to just chase them off, for they could just do it again...i intend to get out the kitty-carriers and take them to the pound...i begin with one of the cardboard carriers which was broken down...i am trying to re-construct it using tape, but it's in bad shape and the tape i am trying to use is not sticking well at all...i try a few different types to no avail, each is worse than the previous...at first the woman (30's, long brown hair, caucasian) is trying to help...later i am trying to get Melian to help, with little luck...i am getting really frustrated and somewhat stressed, for it feels like time is of the essence! i give up on the cardboard carrier and look for another...i find a metal & plastic one which i had forgotten that i had!! getting it ready for use is easier...i begin to try to assemble the kittens, it turns out that there are 5 of them!! Melian is not helping at all, and i'm getting upset about that also...as i get some of the kittens into the carrier, i notice that the two cats; whom i thought were dead, get up and walk/stagger away across the vegetable garden (no fences)!! this amazes me, as they certainly appeared to be dead earlier...
