April: Our found kitty was been advertised in the local newspaper with no response. I guess that means he is now ours. Money has been spent.
He has been neutered, wormed and vaccinated and his 'digestive' problems are over after completing a course of antibiotics. He is the most co-operative cat I have ever medicated.
Boysie was so happy to see him when we went to pick him up from the Veterinarian after his alterations! Kitty, not so overjoyed, he wanted to sleep.
Sometimes I wonder what is going on in that little dog's mind, he did search for the cat throughout the day.

Kitty Blue seems to be getting resigned to being an 'indoor cat' but he spends a lot of time gazing out the windows, that is when he is not eating or napping or wrestling with the dog.
What a difference a few months makes!
Blue is a real character. While he was always very friendly he has become affectionate. Unfortunately he asks for affection by rubbing his face on whatever portion of my anatomy is most convenient and then biting, not hard but hard enough to get my instant attention as he has sharp teeth. When I am awake I firmly discourage this. When I am sleeping he often gets to enjoy flying practice, but he bears no grudge.
Note who has all the toys in his bed!
Watching the two of them wrestle you would think the dog is killing the cat, to the contrary the cat regularly punctures the dog.
Blue is absolutely determined to get outside and succeeds too often for my peace of mind. The basement steps are off the side porch so sometimes I pretend to be taking Boysie out by the side door and close the kitchen door as soon as Blue goes through it before using the front door with the dog. Blue enjoys hanging out in the cool, dimly lit basement but no longer takes the bait unless Boysie actually has his leash on.
Y'all come back!
And of course if Boysie has his leash on he demands to go for a walk. Blue's a smart cat. It's good they get along so well together.
ReplyDeleteBlue seems to have firmly fallen on his feet!!! Nice picture of the two of them napping.
ReplyDeleteI love your comment about having spent money on him! That is my line too.
