Puzzled as to what came first? Ponder no more. Careful observations made right here under the Starry Sky have answered the question once and for all!
It
is
the
CAT!
No really! I can prove it…….
There you have it. ; ) Courtesy of my favorite rural scientists. Data collected during a recent barn paving project. No animals were harmed during the production of this post.
(in fact no animals were moved! Oddly enough, the cat WAS sitting on this egg. We are renaming the cat Horton….)

LOL! I love his new name! 🙂
Too funny!!!!! I love the new name!!!
Now that’s something you don’t see everyday!!!
Weeeelll…isn’t that a wonder – everyone at the Ranch has a job I see….maybe he was trying to think on how to open the egg, and fell asleep trying…but when you all discovered him, he said, “Why…yeeees, I WAS sitting on the egg. Aren’t I a good cat.”
Actually Katie my children also tend to have that response when confronted with misdeeds lol! Well, then again they also tend to fall asleep mid-task so yes, this could be a ranch-wide phenomenon.
hmmmm….I’m sitting here wondering if you have a unique cat….could it have possibly laid the egg??? 🙂
