ARTHUR CAUSES NEIGHBOR TROUBLES & ROSIE IS 4 MONTHS TODAY

CATS ON TUESDAY

Today Rosie is four months old ! Time goes by fast !



I showed her today the bread basket where she used to sleep in at the very beginning when I took her home.

Four months ago



and today ! She didn't stay long in this mini basket, she quickly moved over to her actual one !



The last adventure with Athur !

This week I met a neighbor and she told me that Arthur had almost made her to a widow ! I didn't know that my Arthur was that bad ! The woman had sent her husband in the garage to pick up some potatoes. The man went downstairs with a pot but when he approached the potatoe bag, suddenly a big white bullet shot out from behind, jumped on the car and disappeared through the open window. The man screamed and dropped his pot, the bag felt over and all potatoes rolled over the floor. The woman ran down to see what happened and found her husband in shock near a heart attack, pointing at the window. In there sat good ol' Arthur and looked down very astonished of the mess he had caused.



What should I say ? I appologized for his "bad" behaviour and proposed to pick up the potatoes, but she only laughed and said it had already been done. Apparently they love Arthur and he is visiting them quite often.



When Arthur is not busy with our neighbors he quickly comes home to play with his favourite toy ... Rosie. Thanks to her he became a young cat again !


Here they play in the garden watched by Pookie and Kim. It doesn't happen very often that I can take a picture of four cats together.



On Saturday my friend visited me with her 3 year old grand daughter who wanted to see and play with Rosie.

She was a little afraid of the little cat, but then they played the whole afternoon.



Rosie was exhausted when they went away and slept for the rest of the day !





And this is again our summer weather !

ROSIE LEARNED TO JUMP

Rosie thinks that there are still a lot of things to discover in this household. And now she can jump ! and high !! So she is very proud and discovers everything which is in height !




First the bathroom sinks ! But please no water ! She doesn't know it yet and runs away like a dart shaking her paw !


and then to jump on my desk to help me with computer work. It's just so funny to watch things moving on the screen.

and on the heating ! That is wonderful, she has a lot to watch out there ! Pigeons and magpies on the neighbor's roof and then all the cat traffic ! That is now Rosie's favourite place.

ROSIE FULL OF ENERGY

Every morning Rosie is full of energy ! No wonder she slept through the whole night and never woke me up, not like old Lisa, the walking stomac, who when she is hungry makes a mess in my room to get me up at 2 or 3 am to feed her !

Rosie's little stuff turtle is one of her favourite toys and she carries it around in the whole house. She also has discovered the bath tube and jumps in there and watches the plughole as if a mouse would coming out. Yesterday I just could save her from jumping in the toilet. Usually the cover is always closed, but I just had opened it and Rosie jumped to get in the bath tube and I could catch her just in time.

and here she runs like mad around on the bed

And then she is exhausted and would sleep a little while on my lap until she is fresh again and then the whole thing starts again.

ENJOYING SUN

CATS ON TUESDAY

It looks like if I would talk about the weather on each tuesday, but it was an exceptional day ! The sun shined and it even was warm ! So all cats went outside very happy and enjoyed the sunshine.

Pookie took a sunbath on the windowsill

and drank from the rainwater. Usually there should be flowers in there too, but with all the rain they just died.

Lisa choose the the wooden pieces which were nice and warm and I didn't see her first because her fur looks like camouflage fur !


Arthur and Rosie inspected the water too

and then he retired for a nap. He had played a lot with Rosie. I just had to take a picture of him because he looks like somebody who watches TV the only thing missing is the remote control.

Rosie did her first damage, she broke a little ceramic cat, but it was my fault. I had sneezed so loud that Pookie jumped in the air and Rosie on my printer and knocked a photo frame and the cat down.

Because the weather was so nice, we wanted to show Rosie how to
use the cat flap. She was a little hesitant, but then she went in.
Now I don't know if she will find her way in and out because she uses
the window door. But usually cats are not stupid and she certainly will
follow the others.
P.S. Youpeee she made it ! I saw her this morning going through the
cat door ! Now I am convinced that I have a very intelligent cat !

Rosie has also discovered the front side of the garden and was playing
with all little insects she could find.

ROSIE'S NEW DISCOVERIES

In ten days Rosie will be 4 months old and not a baby anymore but a little Teenager. Of course she discovers new things every day.

When I put my shopping in the fridge, she suddenly jumped inside and didn't want to come out anymore. I would have understood if the weather would have been hot, but this was not the case at all, it was quite cold. She sniffed and looked at everything inside and finally I took her out in the vegetable drawer because I wanted to clean it.






Here sits Rosie in the drawer.


She also is strong enough now to play with the carpet ! (Unfortunately) but at least she hasn't discovered yet to do her pedicure on it !


The trouble is she hides a lot of her toys under the carpet and sometimes you are startled because something squeaks under your foot !


To play with Arthur in the garden is a lot of fun for her. Now she goes a little farer around the house, but never leaves the garden.



There are so many places to hide !


And to feel more secure, if ever she would go a little farer, I had bought her a new collar. She didn't like it all first and tried to bite in it but after a little while she got used. There is a little tube with our address and telephone nr. fixed on it. Doesn't she look very chic ??
