CATS ON TUESDAY

Today I leave Eastbourne and will spend the day in London before taking my train back to Waterloo.

Sweet Sophie was really a great substitute for my cats as she kept me company all the time and also slept in my bed


She loved my computer and always wanted to sit on my mousepad.


Sophie is already a quite old Lady with her 15 years, but she is in a very good shape.


Pepsi the black and white long haired cat, spent the days on my bed when nobody saw her. She is mostly outside but became more social since I saw her last year.


Pepsi looking at me with a suspicious eye ! She is an aunt to Kim and comes from the same family.


Lilly is a half sister to Kim


From her I didn't see very much. She slept outside under a bush or spent the day in the wardrobe. Nobody knows why she is so shy, because she was born in my friend's house and never knew another family. Just like my Kim.

Conclusion, cats are all different just like as us humans and it's not always the fault of your childhood when something goes wrong.


Sophie and Pepsi feeling well on my bed !

This evening I will be happy to have my little Rosie besides me, hopefully without a mouse present, Arthur deeply sleeping and falling off the table with a loud boom and Pookie purring and purring as if she was payed for. Kim probably will stay in her tent.

MY SUBSTITUTES

I am still in the UK in Eastbourne not very far from London








Here is Sophie an adorable cat who is very affectionate ! She adores cuddles and belly rubs. She became my private cat and has adopted me as her temporary servant.



Pepsi is rather shy and doesn't like visitors at all. With me she does an exception, she even allowed me to pet her, usually she would run away.




and Lilli is the wardrobe cat, although she is much better this year. The other years I didn't see her often, because she just left the wardrobe where she slept only for eating. She hates visitors too, but made an exception with me this time.

Of course I miss my little darlings, but at least I have some replacements.

CATS ON TUESDAY





Rosie found a feather on the pation and asks herself and where is the rest ?

I am actually here in Easbourne at the south east coast of England, I arrived yesterday evening and of course hadn't time yet to take pictures of the three host cats, Lilli, Sophie and Pepsi, so I am not catless.



But before I left Arthur Pookie and Rosie helped me packing, while Kim prefered to stay in her tent, she probably will not even realize that I am away as long as someone feeds her

and Lisa decided to watch over my computer.

They will have a terrific week with Mr. G alone at home, he will give them all they want, especially too many treats ! In my case I can say "when the mouse is gone, the cats danse" !

CATS ON TUESDAY


Although Arthur doesn't suffer yet from rheumatism he loves to heat up his "old" bones on the warm tree bark in our garden.


Or on the gravel in front of the house, where he also watches over the car.

Last time when my friend Chantal visited me, and Arthur slept besides her, she said :"I never realized that Arthur has a reddish shade in his fur" !


No wonder when he sleeps and rolls around in the red gravel !


Rosie this little bitch with her innocent cute face, became a terrific mouse hunter ! In the last 5 days she has brought us 4 mice ! Fortunately dead, except the one yesterday which Mr. G had to kill himself. Since 33 years I live in this house and always had cats, but I never had such a mouse harvest ! When I think that there are at least 20 cats living here around then I wonder how many mice must live here now ?? It must be a whole army.


We thought we should rename her "Killer Rosie". Here she watches over the garden under the freshly washed bed cover.


My little sleeping pill Pookie as usual on her 24 h spot on the bed.


As a lot of elderly people, Lisa looks young on a picture, because you don't see how bony she has become. (People have wrinkles) She will be 19 in October and this would be 90 if she were a human ! She still could go into politics.

PS. This morning Rosie brought home her 5th victim ! dead !
