C'mon Huge - tell us a bit about what she's been up to since you brought her home.....
Well.... there's so much to tell.
She's a real sweetie. When she wants food, she rubs her head on my feet. Very cute. She greets people in the morning with a loud meow that sounds like a real extrovert "HELLO!"
She goes completely bananas for Da Bird. I actually bought 2 new attachments from the Purrs Amazon shop as a "welcome home" present and she's more or less destroyed one already. She doesn't mind though, and still goes nuts for it.
She loves the old cat bed. I did think about buying all new stuff for her, but it seemed rather pointless (not to mention expensive!). She isn't keen on the one new thing I bought, a very expensive cat tree... but oh well. She does use it occasionally, but not as much as I'd like.
One of her favourite games is to hide and leap out at people when they walk through the hall or past an open door. Hilarious Kizzy, especially when it's 7 in the morning and I'm carrying a bowl of cereal. She also likes to jump up on the banisters around the TOP of the stairs. I can't watch her when she's up there, I'm deathly afraid she'll fall off.
We can't help but compare her to Peggy. Pegs used to be a real nuisance around meal times, and try and get food off plates etc. Kizzy hasn't done this once. Aside from eating a bit of dropped cooked chicken, she's ignored our food at meal times.
She loves visitors, but is very wary of children. God knows what the little brats who had her before did, but they obviously didn't care about her as they only had her for 3 weeks. How could they have possibly even tried to get to know her in that time?
It's been 2 weeks exactly and I already can't imagine life without her.
We have decided her birthday is going to be Christmas Day, as she's about 8-10 months old, it's kinda slap bang in the middle. It's also easy to remember :p I will have to see what's available in the Auction and get her something.
Oh and she's learning the violin.... I left mine out (stupidly) and I heard this really weird musical scraping sound. Kizzy was rubbing her chin across the strings :D
For those who don't know, I put rosin (hardened sap) on my bow to make a good sounds, and of course some of this gets left on the strings. So guess who had white streaks on her chin later that evening? :p
