Rain …

Rain. Rain. Rain. Then some more rain. You would have thought it was so wet that the last thing any cat would have wanted was to go outside … but not me. I really wanted to get outside … like I always do … and imagine my surprise when I finally managed to on Sunday night when the Mummies arrived from Trivia at the Nerang RSL. Usually they are absolutely on the ball when it comes to keeping me from escaping – and it could have been the meat tray and the shopping and the umbrella and the rain coat or trying to get inside quickly – but they were obviously distracted – which was when I bounded outside! How happy was I! I ran straight around to the office window to see if I could find any of my friends there … but it was obviously too wet for them (drat!), so I had a look under the seat out there … nothing … except Kaz standing there waiting … waiting … waiting … until I finally came out – at which point she scruffed me (really Kaz!), squeezed me to her chest, and carried me back inside. Hummph … I was ready to go back in anyway .. but it’s good for them to think I would stay out there indefinitely if left to my own devices!

They should realise by now that I actually don’t mind being with them. My days at the moment are spent in the bedroom with Sooz until Kaz comes home from wherever she’s been … sometimes with the cameras, sometimes not … and then if she’s at Ollie Tedesco, I will usually have a nap next to her – either on the top of Ollie, or in one of the drawers. Who would have thought you could get comfortable on a keyboard? Just about every cat in the world – but we usually stretch out on the desk too!
