Can you believe they have had me trapped in this house for the last year? That’s 365 days … and nights! Do they not realise I am a free spirit and need to roam the great outdoors. How can I bring them treats if I can’t get outside to get them any?
I did catch a fly last night … I chased it around and around the bedroom, over the bed, over their legs, down the hall, back into the bedroom. It was fast … but I was faster! It’s a pity it was so small so there wasn’t that much to share with them … heh heh … that sounds like I ate it … which I didn’t (how gross would that be?) but I know it’s in the bedroom somewhere … I just haven’t been able to find it since it went quiet. It’s very good at hiding!
It has been a busy week here. Kaz has been busy with her camera again – and not just her camera, she’s been taking photos of me with that, and her tablet, and her phone. There is no end to it. And she’s not just loaning me the photos for my blog … she’s also posting them on her FaceBook page and letting everyone see me doing … stuff … being in her basket, or sleeping in my bed, or just rolling around the floor, or sleeping in on the floor … and stretching out along the door. She’s back to that thing of not giving me a moment’s peace!
I’ve been trying to get to sleep in the bedroom the last few nights. While Kaz and Sooz are watching MasterChef (why do they like that program so much … who wants to watch other people cook and eat?) I take myself into the bedroom and get into my bed … and wait for them. Sometimes I just go to sleep … they take so long to come in. Then, even if I’m not asleep I pretend I am because I know Kaz is a real softie and she’ll do anything rather than put me out. Full marks to her though, she hasn’t once played the cookie trick to get me out … but she was making heaps of noise the night before last and of course I went out to investigate … and by the time I made it back to the bedroom, the door was closed. Then last night she had the package tape and was “teasing” me with it – and we ended up doing tug-of-war – I won! I won! And I was so excited about that, that I forget myself for a moment, and then she stopped tugging, I let go, and she threw the tape out into the hallway. Of course, I went after it … and then the door closed with me on the other side. D’oh!
