Karoline With A K

An update on the Christmas kitten just in case anyone is interested. She is now three times the size she was when found. She can mew and gives voice when she hears action in the kitchen. She is still tiny so that is why her Dad who is totally under her minute paw is feeding her on demand. He went shopping for her second fave, sardines, as her first fave, turkey, is all gone. After dining she likes to relax on the big bed with her Dad keeping her company. She is enjoying watching The Wire with him though at times she gets carried away with the excitement of it all and has a biting, slashing session. Dad's hands are a mess!
We were out yesterday and Auntie Kath came with Meals On Wheels for lunch. Karoline wouldn't surface but made a lot of noise while in hiding. Finally Auntie Kath realized that her company was not needed and that there would be no feeding while a stranger was in the house.
We came home hours later to piteous peeps of starvation. She had cleared the decks.
She has her furry mice now that have to be killed many times a day and of course tail chasing when all else palls. Speaking of the tail it used to trail behind her like an afterthought. It's now upright like any other self respecting cat. Another milestone on the way to growing up.
I can't believe I wrote this drivel. I need to get a life!
