Day 2: Scat, Tater, and Moonpie

Moonpie


Tater


Princess Scat


Tater is wide loose zooming around the apartment. Moonpie follows along but at a slower pace.

Scat is busy snitting and swanning around the apartment because of the urchins I have let into her castle. As we say in the South, she thinks they are tacky.

She has expressed her displeasure by hissing and growling from her bed. She refuses to do anything as gauche as swat at them or chase them.
Scat did come face to face with Tater on one excursion. She left immediately as if she had seen Jabba the Hutt.

It hasn't even been 24 hours. Time will tell. When they begin to plot together against me then the circle will be complete.

PS I am going to get one of those beanbag chairs in my gif when they are older.

I can just see scat-"MOMMMMMMM, what are these THINGS doing here?" I am sure she will come around when she thinks it is no longer an insult to her royal dignity to do so!!

you have certainly started my day off with a big smile!

..., who had only been with us about 5 months, was initially the most offended. Before long they were chasing each other around the house, taking turns being the pursuer and "pursuee."

I will be looking for tomorrow's update with great anticipation.

So not surprised about the zooming. They are adorable, and I know that they are easing your heart ache. It always helped mine.
I certainly wish cats had longer lives, but we always have them in our hearts.
