Checkin’ It Out

I (finally) assembled the kitties new scratching post, with a little help from a friend. Walter and Mimi weren’t clear on what it is right away. The circled it, sniffed it, and walked away. Fortunately, by the next day they were both scratching on it. Alas, a little late to save my wicker chairs. You might notice the top of the post–the picture in the instructions showed a wider berth, wide enough for a cat to sit on. Clearly what we have is too small for that. But overall we’re happy!

Perfect, Mama!

Walter Sees All

On top of the refrigerator, one can get a pretty good view of the kitchen and living room. That’s where all the action is. Of course, there comes a point when a cat wants to be part of the action. But not yet.

We know where you keep the good stuff, Mama!

The Wisdom of Walter

It’s been a tough week for several of my friends, and it’s hard to say how things are going to fall out for some of them. It’s a scary world when the future is uncertain. But Walter says, take it one day at a time. Don’t worry about tomorrow, today has enough troubles of its own. Pray. And when things get really rough, give your kitty a hug.

Welcome Home, Mama!

I spent the last week visiting my Mom in Minnesota, and while I had a great cat-sitter, I realized my kitties missed me when I got an earful from them upon arriving home. Well, they soon got past that and we spent the evening snuggling together. I missed these two while I was gone, and you can see why!

Walter Has Claimed Mom’s Shawl

Walter and ShawlI (finally) finished this shawl for my mom, and Walter won’t let go. As you saw in my previous Caturday post, he likes to find new places to sleep, and it’s often inconvenient for me. Oh well. He’s a sweet kitty and I spoil him. Go ahead and sleep there, Walter. I’ll need the shawl in a month when I visit Mom, but in the meantime, it’s yours.
