Meet the newest member

Meet our newest member of the family. Isn’t he cute? He has a date with the vet this week, so it’ll be his first trip away from his new home. I think he is adjusting nicely. He is still young and playful and likes to get into things like all young ones (including children) do. Our biggest problem is cords and cables. We moved them out of range before we got him, but he is still fascinated with anything that hangs including ironing cords and computer cords. We are still having a water issue since he is not used to drinking from bowl-one that is not located in the bathroom 😉 but he is slowly getting used to his new one.

We left him home alone for the first time yesterday in order to go to the funeral. I have a posting to make about that-but this is Simon’s time. He did very well while we were gone. I was so relieved. He sleeps with my daughter at night. During the day, he spends most of his time with someone either playing or being petted or such but curls up in one of chairs at the table for his time away-on a cushion. We haven’t gotten him a bed (or made him a real one). We will take care of that this week. Cats get so spoiled these days-beds, toys, water fountains, and what in the world is with those nails? I about freaked out when I saw the nail covers in various colors-even for Christmas. I don’t think so. I’ll write more about him as time goes along. He is a very good-natured cat and has a lot of personality. Too bad the photo doesn’t show that, but I took it this morning while he was eating.

Happy Gardening and may your pets know how much you love them.
