CATS ON TUESDAY

CATS ON TUESDAY

As it is still raining and only from time to time there is a little break, Arthur makes short  rounds in the neighborhood just to check if everything is OK. But as nobody is out and stays rather in, there is not very much to see.



After his rounds he shakes his head to get rid of the raindrops



and then he spends a lot of time with drying himself, as he doesn't want any help from our part, and gets angry when he sees a towel !



A good thing to do when the weather is so bad is eating ! and this he does with pleasure each time when he wakes up from a little nap.



Rosie goes outside and enjoys fresh rain water. She thinks it has a much better taste than tap water !



and she often sits on the garden table as the patio has a roof and she can sit there without getting wet and watch the birds. They apparently don't care if it rains or not.



The strange thing is, it rains the whole day, but around 6 pm each evening the sun comes out ! Just to show that it still exists. Pookie has almost finished with her training for the sleeping competition for the Olympics and likes this moment to take a short sunbath !

Apparently the mousies too stay in their holes, because this week I didn't find any corpse.

When you see this look ...




it means that Arthur once again is hungry especially when it is not HIS food and as usual Mr. G. melts and feeds him with his junk food ! There is nothing to do, men are stubborn !



As soon as the rains stops the cats are outside and even Kim joins in the pow wow !



She even flirted with the ceramic cat ! These are the first pictures I could take of her since my return from Tunisia !


Rosie has discovered a nice observation place, hidden from all eyes she watches what is going on in the garden ! So far we used the garden furniture twice ! Call it summer !

CATS ON TUESDAY

While I was away on my Roundtrip through Tunisia, I saw a lot of cats, but out of the bus it was difficult to catch a good photo.

 

Instead I flirted with camels ! they have such beautiful eyes.

At home everything went smooth until the day when the man who did the joints on our terrace left the door to the guest room open, where Dominique had left her two birds to be taken care of by Mr. G.



One morning he discovered the open door and a cage without birds. Sir Arthur had taken off the bath and had looked with head and paw inside the cage. One bird seeing his face got a heart attack and died. He found it laying in a corner. The other one had escaped or was eaten by the killer cat ! We never found its body. Of course Mr. G. was very upset, wrapped the little bird in tissus and burried it in our little animal graveyard in the garden.



When I was back we stood on the terrace one evening and noticed a white spot besides the grave. Mr. G. looked what it was and discovered the tissu he had burried with the bird. Not only Arthur had killed the bird but he also hadn't liked that the bird was burried together with cats and a dog and a guinea pig, so he had pushed the white pebble away and digged out the corpse !



After that he had no remorses at all, and groomed himself after the murder and the grave desecration !



Pookie had spent most of her time with Mr. G at the computer



and Rosie was laying around, the weather was rather grey and cold.

Since I am back I have only seen a piece of tail from Kim, but she comes in and eats !
