In my last posting, Herb and I had added two kittens to our household, but only as visitors until our "girls," came to claim them...They entertained us, we spoiled them, and they settled in...We set up a small enclosure outside, but they promptly climbed out and then back in, but were not happy there...So we introduced them to the outside world and the mini jungle in our flower gardens, there they would stalk each other, play and wrestle as kittens do...As they emerged from the cover and spied the deck and the back door, they would sprint across the lawn ready to go back inside for food, water and a cat nap!..When awake, they raced around our house, hiding under the sofa, darting in and our of boxes and paper bags, and climbed onto our laps for some much needed cuddling...They made themselves at home.
Bobi, Cienna and Ginger (the family dog) arrived about 5 days later, for a visit and to take the kitties home...Neither cats nor dog quite knew what to make of this new development, they took several days and much cavorting around, before they decided to tolerate each other...We are hoping they eventually become good friends...The girls, dog and cats made a safe trip home to Portland, thus ending our time babysitting the kitties...It was good for an animal fix, but we have no intention of animals on a full time basis...Hugs to All...OWAV:)
PS...I will post more about the past two weeks, in the days to come.
